Answer:

The impacts of the fur trade on society in terms of economics, culture, technology, nature, and the government changed over the time.

Rockefeller never act unethically by the standards of his day or today´s.

There is nocontradiction between his personal and business ethics.

Explanation:

The fur trade was a vast commercial enterprise, which was at its peak for nearly 250 years, from the early 17th to the mid-19th centuries, sustained to satisfy the demand in an intensely competitive trade which opened exploration and settlement, financing missionary work, established social, economic and colonial relationships between Europeans and Indigenous people.

Changing cultural in the fashion industry, has had a drastic evolution over the years, when a woman in the first half of the twentieth century , might be very proud to wear a fox stole with its head and feet intact but today, it would consider  that an ethical faux pas.

Ethics has become a major consideration for young people in their selection of work and career, who demand enshrined values in their business  model, a difference, contributing with their core values, conscience, and personality not just profit.By the standards of his day Rockefeller, a faithful, balanced and devout Christian, was not being unethical as he always followed his-time regulations and laws, although nowadays they are more severe.  He compensated all the things he did, if wrong, with his contributions to help people cope with any damage done. There is no contradiction behe did as he had been taught when he was younger that he should separate business from pleasure.

mr Goodwill [35]

Accumulated Balance is given by :

A=P\dfrac{(1+i)^n-1}{i}\times (1+i)

Here,

n = time period = 30×12 = 360.

i=\dfrac{13.45}{100}\times \dfrac{1}{12}=0.0112

P = principal price = $250.

Putting all given values in above equation, we get :

A=250\times \dfrac{(1+0.0112)^{360}-1}{0.0112}\times (1+0.0112)\\\\A=\$1221659.48

Hence, this is the required solution.

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 7.5%

NPER = 15 years

PMT = $45,000

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

And, in type we write the 1 instead of 0

So, after solving this, the present value is $427,011.92
