Answer:

According to John Rawls, those in the original position must choose the principles of justice in ignorance of all of the following except but:

b. their individual conceptions of the good.

Society may launch projects that require giving some persons more power, income, status, etc. than others, to make life better off for the people who are now worst off, by raising the living standards of everyone in the community and empowering the least advantaged persons to the extent consistent with their well-being,  separately from their indiviadual conceptions of good, but for ethical theories.

Explanation:

According to Rawls, self-interested rational people behind the veil of ignorance would choose two general principles of justice to structure society in the real world:

a. Their socio-economic position:

Difference Principle: Social and economic inequalities should be arranged so that they are both, to the greatest benefit of the least advantaged persons, and attached to offices and positions open to all under conditions of equality of opportunity.

c. Their sense of justice:

Principle of Equal Liberty: Each person has an equal right to the most extensive liberties compatible with similar liberties for all, since it distributes extensive liberties equally to all persons. It is also quite egalitarian, since it distributes opportunities to be considered for offices and positions in an equal manner.

d. Their individual allotment of natural assets and abilities:

It is not egalitarian but makes benefit for some (those with greater talents, training, etc.) proportionate to their contribution toward benefiting the least advantaged persons.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

C) price lining

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that Holly’s Candle Shop appears to be using price lining. This refers to a business decision in which a range of products from the same product line are priced differently depending on the difference in quality. Which is most likely the case in Holly's store since she sells only candles but the higher quality candles are priced at $10 while the lowest quality ones are priced at $6.

A bond with a face value of $6,000 and an annual coupon rate of 12% convertible semiannually will mature in ten years for its fa
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Premium is $2,677.95

The premium amortization on the 7th payment is $119

Explanation:

In order to arrive at the premium on the bond,it is necessary to compute the issuing price of the bond,which can be done using the pv formula in excel as shown below:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the semi-annual yield to maturity on the bond which is 6%/2=3%

nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bond,which is 10 years multiplied by 2=20

pmt is the semi-annual coupon payable by the  bond i.e 12%/2*$6000=$360

fv is the face value of the bond which is $6,000

=-pv(3%,20,360,6000)

pv=$8,677.95  

premium=issue price -face value

premium=$$8,677.95-$6,000

premium=$2,677.95

The premium amortization is the excess of coupon payment  over the interest expense.

In the attached, I calculated the premium amortization on the 7th payment.

I started by taking the issue price of $8677.95 ,added interest expense at 3% semi-annually ,deducted the coupon payment of $360,thereby leaving the outstanding balance at end of the year.

Note that the premium amortization is the excess of coupon payment over interest expense as colored coded.
