Answer:
"Why We've Been Hugely Underestimating the Overfishing of the Oceans"
Determining whether each statement is true or false:
a. False
b. True
c. False
d. True
Explanation:
The article "Why We've Been Hugely Underestimating the Overfishing of the Oceans," was published by the Washington Post on January 19, 2016. It was written by Chelsea Harvey. It tried to show how the world fish stock had been declining due to overfishing. This is why it provided a report contrary to the FAO report.
While the FAO report noted that the peak of worldwide catches was at 86 million tons in 1996, the contrary and independent report, using "catch reconstruction" showed that the peak was at 130 million tons in 1996. The reconstructed research also showed that worldwide fish catches had suffered declines ever since the 1996 peak, thereby threatening "world food security and marine ecosystems". The contrary report also suggested that all stakeholders must collaborate so that fish stocks can rebuild naturally.
Answer:
The Sammy and Monica’s medical expense deduction for regular income tax purposes is $17,750.
Explanation:
For the purpose of regular income tax, the deduction pertaining to medical expenses are available up to the extent it exceeds 10% of AGI.
Deduction available = excess expenses incurred - 7.5% of AGI
= ($16,000 + 4,000 + 2,500
+5,000) - 7.5%*130000
= 27500 - 9.750
= $17,750
Therefore, The Sammy and Monica’s medical expense deduction for regular income tax purposes is $17,750.
Answer:
The solution to this question can be defined as follows:
Explanation:
In point a:
When consumer interest decreases, => consumers begin and save less and more, => MPC decreases; => the "IS" curve becomes flatter; => "IS" turns inside. Currently, 'AD' shows together all the goods and financial sector, => as the 'IS' curve adjusts inside the industry, => the 'AD' would also change to the left.
In point b:
Take into account the SR models of "IS-LM" and "AD-AS."
Therefore there is the case of a full job only at the beginning; => its optimum between "IS1" and "LM" in the "IS-LM" model; as well as the main equilibrium among "AD1" and "AS" in the "AD-AS" model "E1'," => the original equilibrium among "Y=Yf," "r=r1" and "P=P1." That now the consumer is reducing the confidence, => the 'IS' curve becomes shifting IMEI 'IS2,' => provided the 'LM' curve, that new balance is 'E2.' That's why the price in the SR is calculated, the AS will change =>, however, the AD also will shift the "AD2" side and "E2'" will become the equilibrium point in the "AD-AS" system, "r=r2 <r1" and "P=P1" throughout the new "Y=Y2 <Yf" balance.

Answer:
His regular earnings ( based on regular rates) is $480 while his total earnings for the week ended March 15 is $738.
Explanation:
Regular rate = $12 per hour
Rate for hours in excess of 40 hours per week
= (3/2) × $12
= $18
Rate for hours for Sunday is double
= 2 × $12
= $24
During the week ended March 15, 9 hours each day from Monday through Friday, 6 hours on Saturday, and 4 hours on Sunday
Period in excess of 40 hours during the week
= (9 × 5) + 4 - 40
= 9
Total regular earning = 40 × $12
= $480
Additional earnings = (9 × $18) + (4 × $24)
= $162 + $96
= $258
Total earnings = $480 + $258
= $738
