Answer:

1. Financial security

2. Predictable outcome.

3. In demand.

4. Little or no volatility

5. Ease of purchase and sale.

6. Undervalued.

Explanation:

1. Financial security:

A good investment should be financially secure or safe from market crashes, change in government policy, etc. It should be an investment fail-safe that you can rely on to keep your investment funds secure.

2. Predictable outcome: Another characteristic of a good investment plan when devising a savings plan is predictability to a large extent. Before investing, there should be adequate enquiries and analysis of past trends and future prospects to enable an investor make better judgement.

3. In demand: Whatever investment that a person ventures into should be in popular demand by others so proper market predictions as to rise or fall of the commodity can be more accurately done.

4. Little or no volatility: À good investment shouldn't be volatile and unpredictable as this could cause major loss that can't be easily predicted.

5. Ease of purchase and sale: À good investment plan for savings must be easy to purchase or sell. This is necessary to avoid a situation where the investor plans to sell but doesn't find a buyer or wants to buy and doesn't find a seller.

6. Undervalued: À good investment plan for savings is advisable to be entered or bought when the good or service is undervalued, I.e, sold below its potential value so as to maximise profit at later dates.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The answer is a. The "invention" sought to be patented is actually a living creature.

Explanation:

That is the answer. Because by the law, you actually "CAN" patent a living creature or an organism that you invented and that does not exist naturally.

So, a patent application CAN NOT be denied on the grounds that the invention is a living thing.

However, if a plant or any organism exists in nature and has reproduced, then it cannot be patented. Because then it has become a natural occurrence. This is a stern limitation and a criteria put on patents for living organisms.

Patenting living organism such as anti bacteria and bacteria is common in pharmaceutical industry while patenting unique seed types are common in agricultural sector.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

In order to make the distribution to common shareholders, each preferred share must be paid a dividend of:

$5 per share.

Explanation:

The preferred stock is non-cumulative. This implies that XYZ's preferred stockholders are not being owed for the previous two year's dividend that was not paid. Non-cumulative preferred stock does not attract dividend arrears whenever it was not declared. It is cumulative preferred stock that attracts such arrears to be carried forward until they are paid.
