Answer and explanation:

The position of the student is correct. Financial intermediaries are entities participating in a financial transaction that function as a bridge. A financial intermediary helps lenders contact creditors and buyers meet with sellers. In fact, the parties on either side of the transaction do not need to meet at all, thanks to the financial intermediary. Eventually, depositors earn a profit by the interest of the money stored in the financial intermediary.

The situation explained above is not the same when talking about insurances. Insureds pay a monthly fee for having a policy that provides them with coverage according to the insurance. If the insurance was never used, the money paid by the insured is not given back.

Masteriza [31]

You are attending college in the fall and you need to purchase a computer. You must finance the purchase because your parents wi

rodikova [14]

The correct answer is installment credit. The explanation is below.

Installment credit allows you to purchase an item and then pay for it in installments. The reason that this would be the best option for you is that you do not have the money now to make the purchase, but you are able to make smaller monthly payments in order to purchase a computer.

Installment credit is better than revolving credit for new borrowers. Revolving credit would allow you to charge additional purchases on your revolving credit account. The installment plan only finances one item, rather than like a credit card, which is how revolving credit works. You would not choose non-installment credit because this would require you to make this payment all at once in a short period of time. It would not allow you to spread the payments out over time.

Answer: continuance commitment

Explanation:

The above scenario explains a continuance commitment. This occurs when a worker remains with a particular organization after he or she looks at both the benefits and costs of leaving and sees that the cost of leaving the organization outweighs the benefits.

In this case, even though Matrice has had several recruiters offering interviews for possible positions at different companies, he believes that he should stay as a result of the medical insurance benefits that he gets. This is thus referred to as continuance commitment.
