Answer:
Truthfulness
Explanation:
A credible news organization is an organization that conveys truthful, verified information, ideally without biases. For example, Reuters is one of the most credible organizations because they do not editorialize information: they simply convey it as it is.
Negative news should not be used to promote hidden agendas against something or someone, because if the agenda is discovered, the credibility of the news organization will take a hit.
Answer:
(i) $240, (ii) will buy, (iii) will not buy, (iv) True
Explanation:
(i)
Actuarially fair price = 2% of $12,000
= (2 / 100) * $12,000
= $240
(ii)
will buy insurance because now the price of insurance is $240 which was $2,880(i.e 72000 × 4% ) previously for drivers with $56,000 in the bank i.e now the price of insurance is reduced so the drivers will buy the insurance.
will not buy insurance because now the price of insurance is $240 which was $140 (i.e 3,500 × 4%) previously for drivers with 3,500 in the bank i.e now the price of the insurance is increased so the drivers will not buy.
True because at the actuarially fair price of $240, the drivers with $3,500 in bank will not voluntarily purchase the insurance.
Answer:
b. $26,666
Explanation:
Additional first-year depreciation =40000*0.5 = 20000
MACRS cost recovery = (40000-20000)*0.3333 = 6666
Total cost recovery deduction for 2017= 20000+6000 = 26666
Answer: ($24100)
Explanation:
The annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company goes thus:
The relevant cost to produce will be:
= ($4.10 × 19,000) + ($8.70 × 19,000) + ($9.20 × 19,000) + ($4.60 × 19,000) + $31,000
= $77900 + $165300 + $174800 + $87400 + $31000
= $536,400
The relevant costs to buy will be:
= 19,000 × $29.5
= $560,500
Since the relevant cost to buy is more than the relevant cost to produce, then the financial disadvantage will be:
= $560500 - $536,400
= $24,100
The answer is ($24,100)
Answer:
8) In civil court, one person - "plaintiff" files a lawsuit against another person "defendant" because of a dispute or problem between them. If the defendant loses the case, the person may be ordered to pay money to the plaintiff or return the stolen property like in the case of Carl and Vince, but the defendant does not go to jail just for losing the case.
If Vince does not want to bring action against Carl, the civil case would therefore be dropped.
9) If Vince does not want to bring an action against Carl, there would be no criminal case against Carl from Vince but the criminal case may be brought on by the government (note that the police already have evidence in the form of a footage of Carl committing the crime) and in this case if found guilty, then Carl may go to jail or prison.
10) A defendant can still go to jail even if a victim does not want to go forward with a case - True.
Like in this case for instance the Prosecutor can present other evidence that show the theft occurred such as the footage and if Carl is found guilty “beyond a reasonable doubt” which is a very high standard, then he can be sentenced to jail
