Answer:

(A) Fixed exchange rate regime

(B) Fixed exchange rate

(C) Flexible exchange rate

(D) Flexible exchange rate

Explanation:

(A) A fixed exchange rate regime signals a commitment not to engage in inflationary policies. NOTE: Inflationary policies are a type of monetary policies (the type used to pump money into the economy). See answer (D).

(B) A fixed exchange rate regime provides certainty about the value of a currency, for example, when the exchange rate between Philippine Pesos and Arab Emirate Dollars is fixed at 10PHP - 1AED, traders in this currency will be certain that at any planning time in business, investment or consumption, 10 PHP will be equal to 1 AED.

(C) Flexible exchange rate distorts incentives for importing and exporting goods and services. What are these incentives? On the government side, it is either the revenue that government makes from import tariffs and duties OR the subsidy that government pays on exported goods. On the importer/exporter side, it is the custom duties paid by importers on imported goods AND the subsidies enjoyed by exporters on exported products. A flexible exchange rate distorts or fluctuates these incentives.

(D) Flexible exchange rate enables policy makers to engage in monetary policy. Now, monetary policy is a tool used by ministers of finance or policy makers in every country; to regulate (increase or reduce or bring back to normal) spending and investment. If the exchange rate between or among countries were fixed, monetary policies would have limited application or usefulness when implemented. A flexible exchange rate encourages and enables engagement in or use of monetary policies.

Discrimination lawsuits that go to court are very expensive, averaging over $200,000, so a well-crafted ________ can save an emp
frozen [14]

Answer:

Job description.

Explanation:

A job description is an internal document that a firm draws up to describe the responsiblities of a position, the required skill, and job requirements to perform a particular job role.

When a job description is well crafted it shows clearly what is required to hire a person for a job. This will reduce discrimination lawsuits because it will show clearly why a particular candidate was disqualified from the hiring process.

For example if a candidate was disqualified for not having a bachelor's degree, it should be well stated in the job description to avoid discrimination claims.
