Answer:
The business judgement rule states that if the board takes decision in good faith and in best interest of the corporation considering the information available then its decision is not to be questioned by the courts. The courts can intervene only if there is any breach of good faith, due care or loyalty.
The above case is similar in facts with another case paramount vs time. In that case Time decided to merge with another company named Warner. Paramount also started bidding for Time but the directors of Time rejected their bid offer citing that warner merger would be more suitable for the company strategy.
Paramount then brought the case against Time in court.The court stated that the instant case was different from another case (REVLON VS MacAndrews) where Revlon was up for sale and hence it was necessary for the board to sell its assets to the highest bidder.

Answer:
The question is incomplete, the option include:
- $20,000 decrease.
- $45,000 decrease.
- $80,000 decrease.
- <em>$160,000 decrease. is Correct</em>
- $320,000 decrease.
Explanation:
1. In 2019 the number of finished units with internal faults = $400,000 completed units * 0.05 = $20,000.
2. In 2020 the number of finished units with internal faults = $20,000* (1 -0.1) = $18,000.
3. In 2020, the projected cost of internal failure= $18,000 * $80= $1,440,000;
4. In 2019 the expense of internal failure= $20,000 * $80 = $1,600,000.
5. Projected shift in the cost of internal failure = <em><u>$1,600,000 - $1,440,000 = decrease of $160,000</u></em>
Answer:
16.42
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Cost of goods sold = $548,600
Beginning inventory of the year = $31,283
Ending inventory of the year = $35,538
Now,
the Inventory turnover ratio is calculated as;
⇒ ( Cost of goods sold ) ÷ ( Average inventory of the year )
Also,
Average inventory of the year = 
= 
= $33,410.5
Therefore,
Inventory turnover ratio = $548,600 ÷ $33,410.5
= 16.42
Answer:
1.The money demand will rise by 1.154%
2. The money demanded will fall and for a 1% increase in interest , the money demanded will fall by 0.38%
Explanation:
1. Money demand function
ln(m) = β0 +β1 ln(GDP)+β2R
Suppose β1 = 1.5 , β2 = −0.04 , GDP = $ 100 & R = 3%
ln(m) = 1.5 ln ($100) - 0.04 X 0.03
ln(m) = 6.91
m = 1002.247
Suppose the GDP increases by 1%; the new GDP will be = $ 101
ln(m) = 1.5 ln ($101) - 0.04 X 0.03
ln(m) = 6.92
m = 1013.81
If the GDP increases by 1% ,the money demand will rise by 1.154%
2.
If the interest rate increases from 3% to 4%
ln(m) = 1.5 ln ($100) - 0.04 X 0.04
ln(m) = 6.906155
m = $ 998.400
If the interest rate rises from 3% to 4% , the money demanded will fall and for a 1% increase in interest , the money demanded will fall by 0.38%
