Answer:

Yes, because the corporation remains liable to the owner under the contract

Explanation:

The above answer is true because in this case, there is no limit to the assignment of the contractual rights between the two parties, hence this assignment of a contract would be treated as both an assignment of rights and a delegation of duties.

Therefore, while the corporation in this case has delegated its duties and assigned its rights under the contract to the developer by assigning the contract to the developer, the corporation is still considered to be liable to the owner for payment of the purchase price.

And given the fact that the developer is not as creditworthy as the corporation, and thus there is a greater chance that the developer will be unable to pay the purchase price, the owner has the rights under the contract arrangement to contractually compel the corporation to do so.

Most home insurance policies cover jewelry for $1,000 and silverware for $2,500 unless items are covered with additional insuran
raketka [301]

Answer:

$8,200

Explanation:

The amount of asset that is not covered under the insurance policy would not be claimable so if the amount of insurance policy that covers jewelry of worth $1000 and silverware of worth $2,500 then the total claimable insurance would be $3500 ($1000 for both Jewelry and $2500 for silverware).

The jewelry stolen is worth $5200 and out of it $4200 is not claimable because $1000 of this is covered under the insurance policy. Likewise the silverware worth of $6500 has been stolen of which $4000 is not claimable because $2500 of this is covered under the insurance policy.

The claim that would be not covered under the insurance policy would be:

Non claimable insurance amount = ($5,200 - $1,000) + ($6,500 - $2,500)

= $8,200

If the structural unemployment rate is 3%, the frictional unemployment rate is 2%, and the cyclical unemployment rate is 4%, the
Damm [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

In this scenario, the natural rate of unemployment would be 5% = 3% of frictional unemployment plus 2% of cyclical unemployment. The other type of unemployment that is part of the natural rate is not referenced in the question (surplus unemployment).

Cyclical unemployment is not added up because it is not part of natural unemployment.

In fact, what natural unemployment basically is, is unemployment that does not depend on business cycle, that is not cyclical. In that sense, cyclical unemployment is totally the opposite to natural unemployment, and you only reach a rate of natural unemployment, when cyclical unemployment is eliminated in a healthy economy.
