Ben is assigned by his employer to improve an ultrasonic range-finding device. While working on the improvement, he recognizes t

hat a novel modification of the equipment might be applicable to military submarines, which, if successful, could be worth a lot of money to his employer. However, Ben is a pacifist, a person who opposes war of any kind, and does not want to be involved in military work. He does not develop the idea himself or mention it to anybody else in the company. He has signed an agreement that all inventions he produces on the job are the property of the company but does not believe the agreement is relevant to this situation. If Ben decides whether the potential military application would be used for offensive aims, or only used for defensive purposes, his issue is primarily:

Answer:

1. He has not developed the idea yet

2. His employer knows he his a pacifist so he has the delima is he ethically correct to not develop a product that can be used for warfare.

Explanation:

In this scenario Ben signed an agreement with his employer that all ideas he has developed on the job and while working with the company is a property of the company.

This is a common agreement that gives a company property rights over work developed by their employees.

However since Ben is a pacifist he has an ethical dilemma when he has an idea that can weaponize an ultrasonic range-finding device.

He is justifying his decision by saying the idea has not been developed yet and his employer will not expect him to develop such technology since he is a pacifist.

Answer:

$1,593,535.83

Explanation:

Future Value of mortgage determines the future value of a mortgage after payments have been made, at a regular frequency, charged a regular rate of interest, compounded at payment dates.

DATA

PV = $1,500,000

N = 24

r = 0.04/12

PMT = $1250

FV =?

Solution

PV = (PMT/r)*[1 – 1/(1 + r)^N] + FV/(1 + r)^N

1,500,000 = (1250/(0.04/12)) * (1 – 1/(1 + 0.04/12)^24) + FV/(1 + 0.04/12)^24

1,500,000 = 28785.31353687 + 0.92323916 FV

FV = (1,500,000 - 28785.31353687)/ 0.92323916

FV = $1,593,535.83

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

EOQ: 80

order per year: 10

Explanation:

We need to solve for the Economic Order Quantity:

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}

Where:

D = annual demand = 800

S= setup cost = ordering cost = 16

H= Holding Cost = 4

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 800 \times 16}{4}}

EOQ = 80

Orders per year = 800 demand/ 80 order size= 10

jonny [76]

Answer:

$42,000

Explanation:

Data provided

Bonds at a discount = $49,000

Sold bonds at a premium = $12,000

Discount amount = $19,000

The computation of the sale of bonds is shown below:-

Cost + Premium - (Cost - Carrying value cost)

Carrying cost = $49,000 - $19,000

= $30,000

Sale of bonds = (Bonds at a discount + Sold bonds at a premium) - (Bonds at a discount - Carrying cost)

($49,000 + $12,000) - ($49,000 - $30,000)

= $42,000

What do you feel would be a minimally acceptable rate of pay? (ex. $X.XX or $XX,XXX):_______.
Veronika [31]

Correct question: I do not know if this question is complete or not but if i understand you well enough, I'd say that the minimally acceptable rate of pay will be in accordance to what is obtainable in yur state or area. $X.XX represents pay per hour while $XX.XXX represents pay per year.

Answer:

I would say Negotiable to be on the safe side if you can't come up with a certain amount by yourself.

Explanation:

When you have to fill on an application and it gets to the rate of pay, you either be on the safer side and write Negotiable if you do not want to sell yourself short or be too pricey. But it is almost certain that the rate of pay applicable in your state or area is what you will be getting per hour.

I hope this helps.
