Answer:

The correct option is is A, predatory pricing

Explanation:

Predatory pricing is an illegal approach to pricing where a firm fixes a very low price in order to send competitors out  of business.

This is very applicable to a firm that has economies of scale where its cost per unit reduces as more and more units are produced, making it possible to undercut competitors without feeling much impact in profitability.

This approach is against the anti-trust law as it paves for a monopoly market,where only one firm operating in the market determines the price which is not likely to be favorable to consumers

Answer: Predatory pricing (A)

Explanation:

Predatory pricing, also called undercutting, is a pricing strategy whereby a company prices a good or service low in order to have new customers, create barriers to entry and drive intending competitors out of the market.

When the potential or current competitors cannot maintain lower or equal prices without running a loss, they leave the market which makes the predatory merchant have fewer competitors to contend with. Predatory pricing is illegal under certain laws.

Please give a complete answer to all questions, citing the legal principle to support your answer.
Alex Ar [27]

1. In the criminal justice system, John can temporarily put Jack in custody pending the arrival of the police.  Jack was not detained for a period longer than five minutes and not for a civil wrong.

Thus, in this lawsuit for the tort of unlawful imprisonment, Jack will lose because he committed a crime.  He cannot apply a civil law to a criminal case.

2. Adriana is correct that her personal assets cannot be reached in this lawsuit brought by the shareholders of DEF, Inc. because SLA Accountants, LLP is a limited liability partnership and not just an ordinary partnership.

A limited liability partnership, like a limited liability company, offers members limited liability.  However, the shareholders of DEF, Inc. may decide to sue Adriana personally.

3. Andrew is wrong because the car handed over by Sam was not a completed inter-vivos gift. The transfer was not absolute but conditional upon Sam not returning from the Middle East.

As a conditional transfer of gift, the vesting of the ownership interest created by the transfer depends on the fulfillment of a condition.

Thus, since the transfer condition did not materialize, Andrew should return the car to Sam in good faith.

jeka94

Answer:

The correct answer is the option C: give too much weight to a small number of vivid observations.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the case that a close friend had told you that he had a bad experience in a certain place, a restaurant in particular this time, does not states the fact that it will always be like that for every person that goes to that place because it may have been a bad day for the employees and that impacts at their work while if you go any other day every detail is taking care nicely. Therefore that the people give too much  weight to small number of vivid observations due to the fact that the article published in the newspaper must have been made with over dozens of observations and comments, not just one, and the major agreement is that those places are good ones to go to eat.

What should be the price of a stock with a beta of 0.7 that just paid a dividend of $1.25 that is expected to grow at 4% if the
Montano1993 [528]

Answer: $32.05

Explanation:

Beta = 0.7

Dividend = $1.25

Growth rate = 4%

Risk free rate = 3%

Market return = 10%

Since, Required return = risk free rate + beta × (market rate - risk free rate)

We will then slot in the values and.this will be:

= 3% + 0.7 × (10% - 3%)

= 3% + (0.7 × 7%)

= 3% + 4.9%

=7.9%

The price of the stock will then be:

= D1/(Required return-Growth rate)

=1.25 / (0.079 - 0.04)

= 1.25 / 0.039

= $32.05
