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.

Pick an Agile Manifesto principle that you think is likely to have the biggest impact on the success or failure of a typical pro
satela [25.4K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The Agile Manifesto principle that I am going to pick in the principle of "Embracing Change."

I think this is likely to have the biggest impact on the success or failure of a typical project in my organization because change is the constant in modern-day business. Probably, since the inception of the modern-day industry.

In order to be successful and maintain that success over the years -no matter the conditions- a company has to be ready not only to adapt to change but to change ahead of necessity. And this is one of the most difficult things to do in business because people love to be in a comfort zone for years. People in corporate America likes to know they are safe in their traditional places doing traditional things. For them, change is tough.

That is why I think "Embrace change" would be the principle that would help me the most.

Assume that the money demand function is (M/P)d = 2,200 – 200r, where r is the interest rate in percent. The money supply M is 2
liubo4ka [24]

Answer: The nominal money supply should set at 1,600.

Explanation:

Given that,

Money demand function: (M/P)d = 2,200 – 200r

r - Interest rate

Money supply (M) = 2,000

Price level (P) = 2

If the fed wants to set the interest rate at 7% then,

Money supply = money demand

(\frac{M}{P})^{s} = (\frac{M}{P})^{d}

\frac{M}{P} = 2,200 – 200r

P = 2 and r = 7%

\frac{M}{2} = 2,200 – 200 × 7

                            M = 800 × 2

                            M = 1,600

The nominal money supply should set at 1,600.
