Answer:

d. even if Ichiro was only slightly at fault.

Explanation:

If Ichiro is suing Heather for negligence, but he himself is found to have negiglent as well, his possibilities of winning the case are less even if he was only slightly at fault.

This is because the fact that he was negligent as well reduces his condition of victim, and makes him an active participant in the accident. In other words, if Ichiro is found negligent, it means that the accident and his subsequent injuries were also his fault.

The correct answer is D) even if Ichiro was only slightly at fault.

Ichiro is injured in a two-car accident and sues Heather, the driver of the other vehicle, alleging negligence. Heather claims that Ichiro was driving more carelessly than she was. Comparative negligence may reduce Ichiro’s recovery even if Ichiro was only slightly at fault.

In insurance terms, when we are talking about comparative negligence we refer to the negligence showed by the two parties that participated in an accident. Both parties had something to do with the accident. So when the insurance company arrives at the site of the accident, they consider this factor to decide who is to blame and how much it has to pay.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The computation of the amount of maintenance cost allocated to the Cutting Department is given below:

= maintenance cost ÷ total floor space excluding maintenance cost

= $20,000 ÷ 6,250 × 1,100

= $3,520.

hence, the option is A.$3,520.

The 6,250 comes from

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

a. The monthly payment will be <u>$1,664.91</u>.

b. The effective annual rate on this loan is 6.49%.

Explanation:

a. What will your monthly payments be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

This is calculated by using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or price of  new sports coupe = $81,500

P = Monthly payment = ?

r = Monthly interest rate = Annual percentage rate (APR) = 6.3% / 12 = 0.063 / 12 = 0.00525

n = number of months = 60

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for P as follows:

85,500 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00525))^60) / 0.00525)

85,500 = P * 51.3541976210894

P = 85,500 / 51.3541976210894

P = $1,664.91

Therefore, the monthly payment will be <u>$1,664.91</u>.

b. What is the effective annual rate on this loan? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Effective annual rate (EAR) refers to the interest rate that is received by an investor in a year after adjusting for compounding.

Since the APR in the question is paid monthly, it implies that it is compounded monthly and the EAR can be computed using the following formula:

EAR = ((1 + (APR / n))^n) - 1 .............................(1)

Where;

APR = 6.3% = 0.063

n = Number of compounding periods or months in a year = 12 months

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

EAR = ((1 + (0.063 / 12))^12) - 1

EAR = 1.06485133891298 - 1

EAR = 0.06485133891298

EAR = 6.485133891298%

EAR = 6.49% rounded to 2 decimal places

Therefore, the effective annual rate on this loan is 6.49%.
