My mother, along with all of my godparents, began planning my quinceañera after I turned fourteen. My mother and aunts took me t

o a bridal shop where I was fitted for a long, white gown, which I would wear at the celebration. I felt my cheeks grow red with embarrassment as the women fawned and fussed over me in the store. I desperately wished that I could just find a hole to crawl into and hide, but there was no way out. My mother, who was in her glory, naturally assumed that the redness in my face was a glow of happiness. I let her go right on thinking that. It was her day, I kept telling myself. I was doing this for her. At last, the big day came. My father cooked up a special breakfast for my brothers and me first thing that morning. I had a queasy feeling in the pit of my stomach, but I was somewhat comforted by my father's easygoing manner and his apparent anticipation of the celebration ahead. After breakfast, my mother helped me dress for the quinceañera. While she was styling my hair, she paused every so often to wipe away a tear of joy that had trickled down her face. I couldn't recall ever having seen my mother quite this happy, and suddenly my heart swelled with affection for her. Two hours later, I found myself standing in the front of a church while all of my dearest friends and family members gazed up at me from the pews. As I looked out on the smiling, supportive faces of all the people I loved, I had an unexpected realization. This day wasn't for my mother after all; it was for me. The church ceremony was followed by a fiesta that lasted all day and into the night. My parents served food that they had worked for days to prepare. A disc jockey played all of the music I loved, and I was showered with beautiful gifts, practical advice, and good wishes from everyone important to me. As I watched my family members celebrate in my honor, I realized that my Mexican heritage was not something intangible, like a bunch of old stories about long-gone relatives. My heritage, I realized, was very real. It was with me at all times, and I was proud of it. What type of essay is this, primarily? A. persuasive B. descriptive C. expository D. narrative

Century Real Estate’s primary broker is John Kerr. John is licensed as the broker of that company and he is licensed as a broker
fomenos

Answer:

The broker is doing two different jobs; so it is okay to have two different licenses.

Explanation:

In this case, since the broker is doing two different jobs then it is okay for him to have two different licenses. In a hypothetical case that the individual Broker was doing the same job role for two different companies then that would be considered a form of conflict of interest and may cause problems with both firms in the future. Since this is not the case, then he should not have any problem.

Joe and Rich are both considering investing in a project with the following cash flows. Joe is content earning a 9 percent retur
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

d. both joe and rich 

Explanation:

To determine who should accept the project, the net present value should be calculated.

The net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

The net present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 =  -$25,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 13,700

Cash flow in year 2 = 18,400

Rich 's discount rate = 16%

Richs NPV = $484.54

Joe's discount rate = 9%

Joes NPV = $3,055.72

The decision rule with NPV is to invest if NPV is greater than zero

Since NPV is greater than zero for both rich and joe, they should both accept it.

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

I hope my answer helps you
