Answer:
a. Counterclaim
Explanation:
Counterclaim is a claim by a defendant (the person be sued) against the plaintiff (the person who sues first).
Lyn is the plaintiff, who first sued Karl (the defendant). Karl's claim against the original plaintiff (Lyn) is an example of a counterclaim.
Another example is counterclaim by the city of Sandy Springs against Holder Construction Group, the company that built the city of Sandy Springs’ new City Springs complex.
Holder Construction Group earlier sued Sandy Springs city over disagreements on payments for the work.
The city filed a counterclaim to a superior Court, claiming that Holder Group should be denied payments until all work is done and for breach of contract, negligent construction and fraud.
Answer:
YES - When marginal cost (MC) of production is increasing, the average variable cost (AVC) is increasing.
Explanation:
Marginal cost (MC) is the cost of producing an extra unit of output while Average variable cost (AVC) is the cost per unit of output produced.
When MC is below AVC, MC pulls the average down. This means that when MC is falling, AVC is falling
When MC is above AVC, MC is pushing the average up; therefore when MC is rising, AVC is rising.
The conclusion is that MC and AVC have a direct relationship and a rise in one will cause a rise in the other
, therefore when the marginal cost (MC) of production is increasing, the average variable cost (AVC) is increasing.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Outside directors are members of the board of directors that are not employees of the corporation. While an inside director is a member of the board that is also employed by the corporation, e.g. CEO.
Corporations are separate entities form their stockholders, that is why limited liability applies to them. The board of directors doesn't have to include stockholders or employees, they usually do, but it is not required by law. Outside directors should very experienced and capable individuals that possess certain expertise that can help the corporation. Also, the board should control and supervise upper management, but if only inside directors were admitted into it, then who would control them?
Answer:
The correct answer is: Assumption of the risk.
Explanation:
If the risk inherent in a particular action that caused an injury is knowingly and voluntarily assumed, you cannot sue anyone to recover the damages. Suppose, for example, a situation in which he went to a friend's house and was warned about the use of the back door because the floor cover was seriously damaged and would not support a person's weight on it. If you have decided to ignore the warning and use the back door, the doctrine of risk taking will probably prevent the recovery of injuries sustained by a fall on that floor. The court will decide that you "assumed the risk" of such injury.
Answer: B - a general improvement in technology affecting production of all goods
Explanation: The Production Possibility Frontier is a curve that shows the two combination of goods an economy can produce when all its factors of production are efficiently used.
Technological progress shifts the curve outward, away from the origin as more output would be produced using the same combination of factor inputs.
Shifting of resources from butter to gun would lead to movements along the curve as more gun would be produced and less butter.
Pacifism becoming less popular which increases gun production, would cause movement along the curve.
Increase in consumer desire for butter increase the amount of butter produced . This would generate a movement along the curve
