Answer:

the government's sovereign immunity

Explanation:

In the US, the federal and state governments have sovereign immunity which means that they cannot be sued unless they agree to it. In the US, the federal government waived their immunity protection from a series of possible torts through the Federal Tort Claims Act. But that law does not include litter or accidents occurring in highways.

Sovereign immunity basically states that the federal government cannot be sued for its actions unless those actions are included in the Federal Tort Claims Act. To be able to sue a state government other rules apply, specially regarding the circumstances around the reason for the claim.

Answer:

The rate at which to discount the payments to find sum borrowed is 12.68%

Explanation:

The discount rate to be used in computing the sum borrowed can e derived from the effective annual rate formula below:

Effective annual rate = (1 + Quoted interest rate/m)^m - 1

quoted interest rate is 8.40

m is the number of months in a year when compounding is done which is 12

effective annual rate=(1+8.40%/12)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1+0.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=1.12682503 -1

effective annual rate=0.12682503=12.68%

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

7.3%; 12.17%; 0.6 times; 15.95%

Explanation:

Return on assets:

= Net Income ÷ Average total assets

= ($65,700 ÷ $900,000) × 100

= 7.3%

Profit Margin:

= Net Income ÷ Net Sales

= ($65,700 ÷ $540,000) × 100

= 12.17%

Asset Turnover:

= Net Sales ÷ Average Total Assets

= $540,000 ÷ $900,000

= 0.6 times

Return on Equity:

= Net Income before dividend ÷ Equity

= [($65,700 + $30,000) ÷ $600,000] × 100  

= ($95,700 ÷ $600,000] × 100  

= 15.95%
