Answer:

The periodic interest payment is $6000. So, option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The coupon rate that is quoted on the bonds is always the rate for the whole year. Thus, a 4% coupon rate means a rate of interest of 4% for the whole year. The bonds are semi annual bonds which means the interest of 4% for the whole year is paid in two stages, after every 6 months.

The semiannual rate of interest is thus = 4% / 2 =  2%

The coupon is paid on the face value of the bond. The interest payment every six month or the periodic interest payment is,

Interest payment-periodic = 300000 * 0.02 = 6000

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The answer is a. The "invention" sought to be patented is actually a living creature.

Explanation:

That is the answer. Because by the law, you actually "CAN" patent a living creature or an organism that you invented and that does not exist naturally.

So, a patent application CAN NOT be denied on the grounds that the invention is a living thing.

However, if a plant or any organism exists in nature and has reproduced, then it cannot be patented. Because then it has become a natural occurrence. This is a stern limitation and a criteria put on patents for living organisms.

Patenting living organism such as anti bacteria and bacteria is common in pharmaceutical industry while patenting unique seed types are common in agricultural sector.

pickupchik [31]

The correct answer is - allows managers to use the normal distribution as the basis for building some control charts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is the theorem that allows inference from a random sample. It says that:

• The sample mean will likely be towards the population mean within a margin of error

• The margin of error is a multiple of the standard error, which is the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size. The multiple is determined by the degree of statistical confidence you’re looking for, and the normal deviate corresponding to that — 1.65 for 90% confidence, 1.96 for 95% confidence, etc.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

C) democratic reforms

Explanation:

One of the things I remember when I was a little kid was watching action movies with my father and many of them had a common hero, an American soldier or spy (and James Bond even though he is British), and a common enemy, the Soviet Union or some other communist country.

That was very in the late 80s and early 90s, and probably much earlier. The world was divided into two sides, the side that favored liberty and freedom (the US) and the communist evil nations.

In economic terms, communism and command economies meant that the government controlled most of a country's resources. This had a negative effect in that only politicians and their allies lived well and were rich, while the rest of the population was poor.

But then president Reagan and premier Gorbachev got together and decided that it was time for all the nonsense to stop, and the Berlin Wall fell, the Soviet Union split up and luckily for all (except James Bond and other heroes), communism ended.

The fall of communist led to democratic and capitalistic reforms.
