<u>Full question:</u>
On June 15, Harper purchased equipment for $100,000 from Imperial Corp. for use in its manufacturing process. Harper paid for the equipment with funds borrowed from Eastern Bank. Harper gave Eastern a security agreement and financing statement covering Harper’s existing and after-acquired equipment. On June 21, Harper was petitioned involuntarily into bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. A bankruptcy trustee was appointed. On June 23, Eastern filed the financing statement. Which of the parties will have a superior security interest in the equipment?
A. The trustee in bankruptcy, because the filing of the financing statement after the commencement of the bankruptcy case would be deemed a preferential transfer.
B. The trustee in bankruptcy, because the trustee became a lien creditor before Eastern perfected its security interest.
C. Eastern, because it had a perfected purchase money security interest without having to file a financing statement.
D. Eastern, because it perfected its security interest within the permissible time limits.
<u>Answer:</u>
Eastern parties will have a superior security interest in the equipment because it perfected its security interest within the permissible time limits.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Eastern has a higher security interest because Eastern amended its security interest inside the allowable time deadlines. A perfected security interest in any security interest in an asset that cannot be demanded by any other party.
Below the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.), to perfect a security interest, a lender has 10 days from the date of the sale of material to perfect the security interest by filing a financing statement. Possessing registered in the 10-day limit, Eastern has a strong perfected security interest in the material and after-acquired things even though the bankruptcy was recorded two days ahead.

The answer is true
Explanation:
The law of comparative advantage describes how, under free trade, an agent will produce more of and consume less of a good for which they have a comparative advantage.
Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
Stephen can move 70 boxes or bake 28 cookies:
Opportunity cost of moving a box = (28 ÷ 70)
= 0.4 cookies
Opportunity cost of baking a cookie = (70 ÷ 28)
= 2.5 boxes
LeBron could move 24 boxes or bake 6 cookies:
Opportunity cost of moving a box = (6 ÷ 24)
= 0.25 cookies
Opportunity cost of baking a cookie = (24 ÷ 6)
= 4 boxes
Yes, trade is possible.
Stephen has a comparative advantage in baking cookies because of the lower opportunity cost than LeBron, so he is specialized in baking cookies.
On the other hand, LeBron has a comparative advantage in moving boxes because of the lower opportunity cost than Stephen, so he is specialized in moving boxes.
