Answer: C. The seller has a 10(b) claim against the buyer.

Explanation:

10(b) is a section within the Securities and Exchange Commission and are a common source of liability for public companies.

It makes it unlawful to use or employ in relation to the trading of shares or securities.

Over here the buyer made the statement that he was aware that the CEO informed the board via email of a patent sale by Wayport that meant that the corporation would receive net proceeds.

The buyer has unlawful means of source and therefore is thinking of buying additional shares. Buyer is violating the 10(b) section of the securities and exchange commission act.

Which statement illustrates the law of demand? Fewer people play golf because incomes are lower. Consumers buy more personal com
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Consumers buy more personal computers because prices have fallen.

Explanation:

Demand is the willingness to buy a good or service and the ability to pay for it, must have both elements for demand to exist.

In economics, the law states that, all else being equal, as the price of a product increases, quantity demanded falls; likewise, as the price of a product decreases, quantity demanded increases.

In other words, the law of demand states that the quantity demanded and the price of a commodity are oppositely related, other things remaining constant.

If the income of the consumer, prices of the related goods, and preferences of the consumer remain unchanged, then the change in quantity of good demanded by the consumer will be negatively correlated to the change in the price of the good.
