The correct answer to this open question is the following.
No, it is not ethical.
The risks that Emerald faces by not upholding his responsibility for the collection and payment of employment taxes is that, first of all, this is not correct. He has an obligation, a moral and a fiscal obligation to report on time the employment taxes. That is why his actions are not ethical although he indeed does pay before he gets caught. That decision could be a business decision to buy some time and trying t fix other problems, but a true leader does not need to cover things with wrongdoings. What can of example is he showing to his employees?
Later on, on another occasion, he won't have the moral authority to demand ethical behavior from his employees. He is not setting an example.

Answer:
free cash flow is 2.352 million
Explanation:
Given data:
operating income is $2.30 million
depreciation $1.20
tax rate is 25%
free cash flow is calculated by using below formula
free cash flow = operating income ( 1- Tax) + depreciation - fixed working capital
= 2.75( 1 - 0.25) + 1.20 - 0.6
= 2.352 million
free cash flow is 2.352 million
Answer:
1. False 2. True
Explanation:
1. The candidate for political office announcing that the policy to reduce immigration from abroad which, he says, economics clearly demonstrates will lead to higher output in the long run; is false.
What increases output are the factors of production of which labor is a major component. When there are more people willing and able to work in an economy, <u>they help companies to produce more output but that is not the case when immigration is reduced, obviously that would reduce productivity and output.</u>

2. However his second claim is right, that making trade more open between the US and other countries will increase output on the long run.
Trade barriers like tariffs and duties impede the level of trade between countries which could either reduce the amount of money countries make after netting off custom duties or the price of imported goods are increased by the effect of tariffs. Increased price means reduced demand
<u>Hence if tariffs are replaced with subsidies in open trade, prices of U.S imported goods will fall and demand will increase.</u>
