Jake owns a company called Boat Builders, LLC and one evening he took several of his employees out after work to a bar. After ea

ting and drinking for several hours Jake invited them back to the Boat Builders premises so he and some of the employees could show off a boat they’d been working on. After arriving at Boat Builders they all continued to drink and two of the employees, Tyler and Mark, got into an argument. When Tyler went to use the bathroom Mark attacked him from behind causing him to lose consciousness and break a tooth. Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it and went to check on Tyler. Tyler sat up and asked what happened and Jake told him that Mark had attacked him from behind. About an hour passed by during which time Jake went out to his car and got his phone so he could play music for everyone. After an hour, Tyler and Mark began to argue again and they walked outside into the Boat Builders parking lot where Mark attacked Tyler again. Mark left and was later arrested for aggravated battery. Tyler regained consciousness after 10 minutes and drove home even though he was badly injured.
Does Tyler have a negligence claim against Boat Builders? Why or why not? A complete answer will be at least 5 sentences and mention critical facts.

Answer:

<u>Yes, because Boat Builders, LLC failed to exercise a reasonable standard of care at their premises.</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember, </em>we are told, "Jake... invited them back to the Boat Builders premises," meaning they (Boat Bilders, LLC) had a duty of care responsibility toward all of his employees present.

Note we are told, "Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it," this was a moment that shows Jake's negligence because as the owner of Boat Builders he had a duty of care to ensure no one is hurt without their own fault within their premises (which included their "parking lot").

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $42.94

Explanation:

The price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate is calculated using the constant growth model of Dividend Discount model approach. It bases the price of the stock on the present value of the expected future dividends. The price today under this model is calculated as follows,

P0 = D0 * (1+g)  /  r - g

Where,

  • D0 * (1+g) is the D1 or the dividend for the next year
  • r is the required rate of return
  • g is the growth rate in dividends

P0 = 4 * (1+0.052)  /  (0.15 - 0.052)

P0 = $42.938 rounded off to $42.94
