Answer and Explanation:
In an action based on strict liability, a plaintiff must show that
(1) a product was defective,
(2) the defendant was in the business of distributing the product,
(3) the product was unreasonably dangerous due to the defect,
(4) the plaintiff suffered harm,
(5) the defect was the proximate cause of the harm, and
(6) the goods were not substantially changed from the time they were sold.
A plaintiff does not have to show that there was a failure to exercise due care, and this distinguishes an action based on strict liability from an action based on negligence, which requires proof of a lack of due care. If Bob establishes his case, the court in this problem is most likely to rule in his favor, because the manufacturer is strictly liable in this case. Strict liability allows a plaintiff to recover damages for injuries resulting from product defects without proof of fault.
Answer:
The trader has incurred a loss because the price of crude oil futures has increased.
Loss = (Today's closing price - Yesterday's closing price) * 10 * 100
Loss = (57 - 55.30) * 100 Per contract
Loss = $170 per contract
Loss for 10 contracts = 170 * 10 = $1,700
Now the account balance = Current margin balance - Loss for 10 contracts
The account balance = 28,000 - 1,700
The account balance = $26,300
Maintenance margin for 10 contracts = 2,500 * 10 = $25,000
Since the account balance is greater than the required maintenance margin for 10 contracts, the investor is not required to deposit money into the margin account.

Answer:
b.100 in 2002
Explanation:
This question can be solved without any calculations. When calculating consumer price index, the CPI for the year chosen as base is always 100. In this case, 2002 was chosen as the base year and, therefore, the CPI was 100 in 2002. Since that is one of the alternatives, no further steps are required and the answer is alternative b.
Bride wealth or bride price
Answer:
B 30 percent
Explanation:
Initial cost of production = (2×$10) + (5×$4) + (8×$3) = $20+$20+$24 = $64
New cost of production = (2×$10) + (5×$8) + (8×$3) = $20+$40+$24 = $84
% rise in cost of production = (new cost - initial cost)/initial cost × 100 = (84 - 64)/64 ×100 = 20/64 × 100 = about 30%
