Answer: c. is violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Explanation:

A person being in debt does not mean that they will lose their rights. They are still citizens and certain rights will be protected and these are shown in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

One of the requirements of this Act is that debt collectors do not call between the hours 9pm and 8am as these hours are unreasonable to disturb people at. In calling Hilda at 1 am or 2 am therefore, this collection agency is in violation of the Act and can be sanctioned.

Frederick is a student at Central Fictional State University (CFSU), and he has a great idea for a new business invention. Frede
Delvig [45]

Answer: He should should File a suit.

Explanation:

He should should File a suit.

The new innovation was Frederick's brain child, I believe God gave him this innovative Idea he could change people's lives professionally and even personally. Frederick should only sue the Professors for the use of his innovative idea and the Patents for this innovation to be transferred back to the rightful owner of innovation (Frederick) and not to sue them for everything they have the aim here is to teach/show professors that stealing is wrong and  not to punish.

We should not let evil doers prevail, suing Professors will teach them a lesson that stealing a person's idea is wrong and they should not do it again, if Frederick doesnot sue the professors would probably do it to another student. Frederick's law suit will not only help him but it will actually save a lot of students coming after him which is what Christianity is teach us to do good for other people.

Suppose that over the past year, the nominal interest rate was 5 percent, the CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

The nominal interest rate was 5 percent.

The CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI was 144.2 at the beginning of the year.

The 5% nominal interest rate means that the dollar value of savings increased at 5%.

Inflation rate

= \frac{(150.3 - 144.2)}{144.2}

= 0.0423 or 4.2%

The real interest rate

= Nominal interest rate - rate of inflation

= 5 - 4.2

= 0.8%

The real interest rate of 0.8% indicates that the purchasing power of savings increased at 0.8%.
