In this scenario, dressing formally during business meetings is probably a cultural imperative for the French

Explanation:

Cultural imperatives are traditions that you have to comply with when you want to succeed.

Relationship building is an example of a cultural imperatives .

Business understands the importance of building a relationship in many Asian countries such as China and Japan and Latin America.

Businessmen are not doing company business, they are doing business with people. It is a cultural necessity to spend time developing this relationship in these countries before you start up your business. Always underestimate your business partners ' value in building trust. It makes or breaks an agreement. Among Asian countries, another moral necessity is to make no one lose face. Never raise your voice or publicly threaten anyone. You will struggle in your company if you are ignorant of these cultural imperatives.

5. If you enter a road from a driveway, alley or roadside you must:
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

If you enter a road from a driveway, alley or roadside you must:

Yield to vehicles already on the main road.

Explanation:

The concept of right to way is supposed to be understand since there are no law that actually grants the right of way since it only states when the right of way is to be yielded. This concept has to be considered and well understood by all motorists to avoid conflict on roads. These conflicts often cause accidents which can lead to possible loss of life. Thus the rules governing right of way have to be taken very seriously to minimize the probability of accident.

In the following cases the right of way has to be yielded;

1. When one is at a yield sign for example; a stop sign

2. At a pedestrian crosswalk

3. At intersections that don't have traffic lights or where there is uncontrolled movement

4. At T intersections where one has to yield to motorists already on the main road

5. When one needs to turn left into the main road, one needs to yield to oncoming vehicles on the main road

6. One one is moving from a parking lot to the pavement

In our case, rule number four applies since one needs to enter from a driveway alley or roadside to the main road. This means that one on the driveway needs to yield to vehicles already on the main road.

Evans Ltd. is now considering the possibility of offering a lifetime membership option to its subscribers. Under this proposal,
Ahat [919]

Answer: $329.75

Explanation:

The one year subscription is $40 per year. It is estimated that the average age of current subscribers is 38 and they will leave on average to 78. This means that they will leave for,

= 78 - 38

= 40 years

Evans Ltd  average interest rate on long-term debt is 12% so this means that we can use that 12% as a discount rate for the cash-flow expected.

I have attached a Present Value Interest Factor of an Annuity table to this question. It helps calculate annuities faster.

The above can be treated as an annuity because the $40 is constant every year.

The present value of the $40 over 40 years can be calculated by,

= $40 * present value Interest Factor of an Annuity for 40 years at 12% (look at the table for where 40 years on the y axis intersects with 12% on the x axis)

= $40 * 8.2438 (this is the figure when it is not rounded off to 3 dp)

= $329.752

= $329.75

This shows that the lifetime flat fee of $480 is more profitable for Evans Ltd as opposed to the yearly subscription. They should therefore try to sell more of the lifetime contract with the flat fee.
