Answer and Explanation:

In the U.S., the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the authority protecting individuals from discrimination at work in any kind because of <em>race, gender, age, religion, ethnicity, nationality, language, sexual orientation, impairment</em> differences or any other type of unfair treatment not related to work itself.

Age discrimination could take place when certain groups of individuals are valued more than others because of their youth or because their white hair represents experience. In any situation, unequal opportunities are given which must be sanctioned. Thus:

A) A young lawyer who just finished work on a multimillion-dollar development deal downtown is hired by an economic development firm in lieu of an older lawyer who works on litigation.  

<em>This example does not represent discrimination because the election is based on performance rather than age. </em>

B) A large retail outlet hires a 30-year-old woman to greet customers instead of an 80-year-old woman who has been greeting customers in other stores for a decade.  

<em>This example reflects discrimination because a younger woman is hired mainly based on her age rather than her expertise. </em>

C) The owner of a local, hip smoothie bar in a university town just fired a graduate student who had worked at the bar for three years and instead hired a college sophomore.

<em>This example represents discrimination since a younger student is hired to replace another student who was in the last year of university.</em>

g100num [7]

Answer:

It will be sold at $1,186.71

Explanation:

We will calculate the present value of the cuopon payment and the maturity at the new market rate of 7%

<u>The coupon payment will be calcualte as the PV of ordinary annuity</u>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C $50 (1,000 x 10%/2 as there are 2 payment per year)

time    16 (8 years x 2 payment per year)

rate     0.035 (7% rate / 2 payment per year)

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.035)^{-16} }{0.035} = PV\\

PV $604.7058

<u>The maturity will be calculate as the PV of a lump sum</u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  1,000.00

time         8 years

rate  0.07

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{8} } = PV  

PV   582.01

<u>The market price will be the sum of both:</u>

PV cuopon $604.7058

PV maturity  $582.0091

Total $1,186.7149

Mama L [17]

Answer:

GDP [Expenditure Approach] is $7,040,  Depreciation is $920

Explanation:

The formula for calculating GDP [Expenditure Approach] is Consumption expenditure + Investment + Government expenditure + Exports − Imports

Mathematically,

Y = C + I + G +  (X − M)

Where C = $7,000, I = $160, G = $180, (X-M) = -$300

Y = 7000 + 160 + 180 - 300 = $7,040  

GDP [Expenditure Approach] is $7,040  

Depreciation = GDP - NDP

NDP = wages + profits + interest + rent + net factor income of unincorporated businesses

Where wages = $5,900, profits + interest + rent = $220, net factor income from abroad = $0

NDP = 5900 + 220 + 0 = $6,120

Applying Depreciation = GDP - NDP, we have:

Depreciation = 7040  - 6120 = $920

N.B: The depreciation is a measure of the statistical discrepancy between the GDP and NDP
