Answer:

A) breached the agent's fiduciary duties to the principal.

Explanation:

To be more specific, Sam broke the agent's the duty of loyalty towards the principal. An agent must act in the best interest of the principal, not on his own best interest. The agent is getting paid for performing a task on behalf of the principal, and by taking advantage of his position, the agent has clearly breached his contract with the principal. Therefore, the principal can sue the agent and recover for damages (tort suit).

An economy has full-employment output of 5000. Government purchases are 1000. Desired consumption and desired investment are giv
V125BC [204]

Answer:

a. real interest rate is 0.217 or 21.7%.

b. saving = 134 , investment is 332 ,  consumption is 3666.

Explanation:

a) Y = Cd + Id + Gd

Where Y= output

Cd= consumption

Id= Investment purchases

Gd=Government purchases

Y= (3600 - 2000r + 0.10Y) + (1200 - 4000r) + 1000

Y=5800-6000r+0.10Y

0.9Y=5800-6000r

At full employment Y=5000

Putting the value of Y in the above equation

0.9*5000=5800-6000r

5800-4500=6000r

r=0.217

Therefore real interest rate is 0.217 or 21.7%.

(b) Sd = Y - Cd - G

where Sd is national saving

Sd = Y - (3600 - 2000r + 0.1Y) - 1200

Sd = 5000-(3600 - 2000*0.217 + 0.1*5000) - 1200 =5000-3600+434-500-1200 = 134

Therefore, saving = 134

Id= 1200-4000*0.217 =332

Therefore, investment is 332

Cd= 3600-2000r+0.10Y=3600-434+500=3666

Therefore, consumption is 3666.

Q#2 (Chapter 9). A diversified company has decided to use its overall firm WACC as a performance benchmark for rating its divisi
labwork [276]

Answer:

Pros: Use of singe hurdle rate saves time in the evaluation of projects which results in prompt decision making.

Cons: Company may reject good projects and accept bad ones due to the assumptions underlying WACC use in capital budgeting.

Explanation:

Pros of using WACC: The use of WACC implies that the company  uses a single hurdle rate  for all projects, which simplifies the decision making and saves  time when evaluating projects

Cons of using WACC: Use of WACC assumes that  there is no change in capital structure i.e all projects are financed in exactly the same way and all projects have the same risk . These assumptions  may lead to the company rejecting good projects  and accepting bad ones. For example the company may accept a high risk project with a return of 14% when the minimum return that should be accepted according to the high risk divisional WACC is 16%. Likewise, the company may reject a low risk project with a return of 11%, when it is in fact a good project whose minimum return should be 8% as per the low risk divisional WACC.
