Answer:

Air transportation.

Explanation:

Responsive transportation is a form of shared transportation system where regular public transit or a personalized taxi that are frequent on a particular route are used to enhance a speedy and economical delivery of items and passengers en - route different destinations but in the same direction.

Looking at the three major modes of transportation which are road , air and sea, the one that suits this scenario is the Air system.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

LIABILITY

Explanation:

Liabilities are money owed by an organization or company as a results of obligations rising during the course of business operations, financial debts incurred, purchase of asset and so on. It also refers to the situation of being legally responsible for the actions of something or someone. If an organization decides not to take measures—due care—to make sure that every employee knows what is acceptable and what is not, and the consequences of illegal or unethical actions, it increases his liability.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

0.0416483 or 4.16%

Explanation:

Annual percentage rate, APR = 4%

Value of toys sold = $200,000

Note period = 90 day

N = 365 ÷ 90

= $200,000 × [1 - (0.04 × 90/360)]

= $198,000

Effective annual financing cost:

=(\frac{Value\ of\ toys\ sold}{Calculated\ value} )^{\frac{365}{90} }-1

=(\frac{200,000}{198,000} )^{\frac{365}{90} }-1

= 1.0416483 - 1

= 0.0416483 or 4.16%
