Which statement best describe charecteristics of a partnership
Dmitriy789 [7]

A partnership is an unincorporated association of two or more individuals to carry on a business for profit. Many small businesses, including retail, service, and professional practitioners, are organized as partnerships.  

A partnership agreement may be oral or written. However, to avoid misunderstandings, the partnership agreement should be in writing. The agreement should identify the partners; their respective business‐related duties and responsibilities; how income will be shared; the criteria for additional investments and withdrawals; and the guidelines for adding partners, the withdrawal of a partner, and liquidation of the partnership. For income tax purposes, the partnership files an information return only. Each partner shares in the net income or loss of the partnership and includes this amount on his/her own tax return.

How does examining perspective change the interpretation of the facts concerning the existence and tools of the Cold War
atroni [7]

Examining perspective is the process by which you take an event, a circumstance, or even a place and you evaluate them through examination of characteristics and even emotions and feelings generated in you. A perspective is precisely the way in which you interpret information around you depending on certain aspects like your culture, education, customs and traditions, among other things. In the case of the Cold War and what was used during it, as well as the events that took place, an examining perspective might affect the way that you perceive the events of this time period because it would lead you to understand in a different way what happened and the reasons behind it. So, for example, the circumstances of espionage that led to many confrontations during the Cold War between the U.S and Soviet Union. Culturally, and through education, we have been taught that espionage was wrong and brought many problems with it, not least of which might have been a nuclear confrontation. But through an examining perspective, you take much more than just what you can see, hear, touch and taste and you evaluate every aspect, and understand the when and the why of an event.

Nastasia [14]

Thomas Paine<em> (1737-1809)</em> <u>is one of the founding figures of the United States</u> due to his pamphlet<em> Common Sense</em>, and it's influence during the time of the American Revolution.

Answer 1.

  • <em>Thomas Paine</em> stated that England protected the 13 colonies for the sake of trade and dominion, he also points out that England would have protected any country for those same reasons because their only motive <em>was interest and not attachment </em>to the 13 colonies.

Answer 2.

  • Paine wrote on his pamphlet "Common Sense" that even if the colonies were related only through the Parent Country (England), <em>the true Parent or Mother Country of America was Europe</em>, because the New World was the asylum of civil and religious liberty from every part of Europe.  

Answer 3.

  • He wrote on his pamphlet Common Sense that <em>England brought prejudices to America</em>, an Englishman was superior simply by the fact that they were born in England even though the majority of the population on the colonies were born in America. He also wrote that the government used<em> tyrannical practices against the colonies. </em>

Answer 4.

  • Thomas Paine thought it was a proper time <em>to stop waiting four to five months for a petition to be reviewed</em> and that it made no sense to travel three or four thousand miles with a petition. He thought Britain had no rightful power in America's justice.

Answer 5.

  • He thought that the 13 colonies would make more progress and would be wealthier if they were independent from England, because the enemies the colonies were facing and stopped them from trading were enemies of England and not theirs. <em>If the colonies were independent they would be able to trade with countries like Spain and France.</em>

Answer 6.

  • Thomas Paine told the American people in Common Sense<u> that independence from Britain was possible.</u> He said that <em>if there had to be a king it would have to be the rule of law and not of a single man.</em> He proposed a free republic where any payment would go to the law because "the law is king".
