Answer:

Here are the possible answers:

a) making the best possible ethical choice.

b) going to make a terrific President of the United States some day.

c) none of these.

d) ultimately going to be rewarded by having the most profitable car

The answer is: c) none of these.

Explanation:

Ethics in industries related to manufacturing things that are of critical importance to public safety and security is very important.

The behavior of a manager like Lee is deemed as highly unethical, as he puts the marketing and design need in front of an essential need such as safety compliance.

Regardless of the ethics perspective, it is also irrelevant to state that this kind of car would be the most profitable. That could be possibly true in the short-run (due to intensive design and marketing efforts), but on the other hand, a critical dose of bad PR when an accident occurs (due to low safety improvement efforts) can be devastating for the company's profit in the long run.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

(E) inflated to make

Explanation:

There is a grammatical error, in the sentence as for the words:

inflated, and making the words inflated to make shall be replaced in order to correct the error.

As the event discussed is related to the past that is already it happened that the bag got inflated to make the passenger who is already terrified think, that the car is on fire.

There is a new innovation to correct the past event, where the inflation of bag is related to making the person terrified, and are not two separate transactions, that shall be reported in different phrases.

The YTM on a 2 year zero coupon bond is 5% and the YTM on a 1 year zero coupon bond is 3%. What does the no-arbitrage condition
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<em>$111.11 or 111.11% of face value</em>

Explanation:

Assuming the face value of $100 for all bonds (without loss of generality)

If the two year coupon bond is repackaged as a one year zero coupon bond paying $12 after one year and another two year bond paying $112 after 2 years, the price of the two zero coupon bonds are given as

Price of one year Zero coupon bond = 12/1.05 = $11.43 (one year ZCB has YTM of 5%)

Price of two year Zero coupon bond = 112/1.06^2 = $99.68 (two year ZCB has YTM of 6%)

So, one can sell the repackaged bonds at a price = $11.43+ $99.68 = $111.11 or 111.11% of face value

The market demand function for corn is Qd = 5 15 - 2P and the market supply function is Qs= 5P- 6, both quantities measured in b
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The Producer surplus = 19.6.

consumer surplus = 12.25.

Aggregate supply = 31.85.

Explanation:

Normally, the demand equilibrium function equals to supply equilibrium function will get us the price which is $3 that is Qd = Qs. Hence, if we equate both function together like;

15 - 2P = 5P - 6.

15 +6 = 5P + 2P.

21 = 7P.

P = $3.

Thus, Qd = 15 - 2P= 15 - 2(3) = 15 - 6 = 9 units.

Qs = 5P - 6 = 5(3) - 6 = 15 - 6 = 9.

Therefore, if the price is going to be Increased by $4, we will have that;

Qd = 15 - 2P= 15 - 2(4) = 15 - 8 = 7 units.

=> The Producer surplus = 1/2 × 14 (4 - 1.2) = 19.6.

=> consumer surplus = 1/2 × 7 (7.5 - 4) = 12.25.

Aggregate supply = Producer surplus + consumer surplus = 19.6 + 12.25 = 31.85.
