Answer: d) Cannot sue Bob for misrepresentation

Explanation: A misrepresentation is a false statement made from one person to another that a certain fact is true or accurate when it is indeed false. The fact that the value of the stock I bought on Bob's opinion does not give me the right to sue him for misrepresentation (intentional). The reason is this, Bob's expression of his opinion concerning the HotNet stock does not usually constitute a misrepresentation even when it turns out that his opinion is incorrect. It wasn't intended, however, he could be sued for negligent misrepresentation.

Answer:

The break even point in units is 24000 rooms per year.

Explanation:

The break even point in units is a point where enough units are sold to earn a revenue that covers the total cost of the business and there is neither a profit nor a loss to the business. The break even point in units can be calculated as follows,

Break even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

Where,

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

So,

Contribution margin per unit = 90 - 40 = $50

Break even in units = 1200000 / 50    =  24000 units

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The correct answer are option D for both questions.

Explanation:

Recessions is characterized with decrease in consumer and investment spending. During recessions there is a decline in inflation rate and the unemployment rate increases.

While during expansion, there is a boost in economy. So, with increase in investment and production, the unemployment rate falls. There is a rise in inflation rate as well.

Though even in the stages of recovery, the unemployment rate continues to increase because some firms are pessimistic and are operating below their capacity. Also, the rate of growth of labor force is higher than rate of employment growth, which leads to increase in unemployment.
