Answer:

If Nathan's additional injuries were severe, then Sam is probably liable for negligence.

Explanation:

There is no law that forces someone to help another person in peril, you have the legal obligation to call for help (usually 911), but your obligation ends there. If you decide to help someone, then you are responsible for that person's well being and must exercise reasonable care. Even if you are not a properly trained rescuer, you have the obligation to not make the victim worse. If Nathan's health suffered due to Sm's negligence, then Sam is liable to him.

This is a reason why you have to think twice before assisting someone in peril since once you decide to be a rescuer, then you are liable for any bad consequences that may occur. For example, if you are trying to help someone out of a car after an accident, an that person's leg or arm is broken in the process, then you may be liable for it.

Suppose the U.S. yield curve is flat at 4% and the euro yield curve is flat at 3%. The current exchange rate is $1.50 per euro.
lianna [129]

Answer:

$4.24287 million per year

Explanation:

Missing question:  The swap will call for the exchange of 1 million euros for a given number of dollars in each year.

For structured three separate forward contracts of the exchange of currencies, the forward price could be found as follows

Forward exchange rate * $1 million error = Dollar to be received

Year 1 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03) * 1 million euros

Year 1 =  1.514563106796117 * 1 million euros

Year 1 =    $1.5145 million

Year 2 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^2 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = 1.529267602978604 * 1 million euros

Year 2 = $1.5293 million

Year 3 = 1.50*(1.04/1.03)^3 * 1 million euros

Year 3 = $1.5441 million

The number of dollars each year is determined by computing the present value:

= 1.5145 / 1.04 + 1.5293 /(1.04)^2 +1.5441 / (1.04)^3

= 1.45625 + 1.41392 + 1.3727

= $4.24287 million per year

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Neoclassic economists believe that both wages and prices are sticky (hard to change) only  int he short run. In the long run, both prices and wages will adjust to new economic conditions.

In this particular case, neoclassic economists will predict that even though wages are starting to rise, in the long run the equilibrium wage will be higher.

Long run and short run are economic concepts that do not refer to a given time period, e.g. long term in accounting means more than 1 year, but long run in economics may take years to come.

Long run refers to the amount of time it takes for an economic variable to adjust to economic changes.

If Canada's increase in labor costs is paired with an increase in productivity (usually new technologies), then the economy should be able to grow since private consumption and investment will increase due to higher wages.

Answer:

The incorrect statement is number (3): Workers are viewed like machinery, needed to get the job done, nothing more.
