laws by definition  is commonly understood as a system of rules that are created and enforced through social or governmental institutions to regulate conduct, therefore it sets a certian standard of the freedom that a person can have. with out laws that freedom goes unchecked and as history shows us, no place can function properly without a couple rules in place. unchecked freedom is just as dangerous as no freedom because without they both damage the stability of a place or region. some people agree that "where there is no law, there is no freedom" because the law allows people to appreciate freedom in the first place.

Read the statement below. Then decide whether you agree or disagree with the statement. Be prepared to support your opinion with details from the story. Here's your discussion prompt: In Gogol's "The Nose," the loss of a nose symbolizes the loss of power.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, I agree with the statement that the loss of Major Kovalyov's nose symbolizes the loss of power in the person.

Explanation:

Nikolai Gogol's satirical story "The Nose" that tells the story around an official in the Russian government who lost his nose. And along with that loss of the physical facial feature, he seemed to have lost his self-esteem and did things that seemed unbecoming of a government official.

In the story, the loss of the nose not only represents the literal loss of the facial feature. It also represents the literal loss of power or authority in the person. Collegiate Assessor Kovalyov was proud of his achievement and would refer to himself as "Major" just to show his power, "to make himself sound more important and to give more weight to his status". Thus, it is evident that power and status means a lot to him. So, when he realized his nose had disappeared and resurfaced as some official higher than him in position, he was flabbergasted. He even approached the nose at the church and demanded to know "where you belong? And where do I find you? In church, of all places!". He had previously guessed the position of the nose as perhaps "a state councilor" but that did not deter him from reproachfully ordering him to return his nose.

So, when the nose refused to return, he felt smaller and in "absolute despair". He even stated his position of "major" to the nose, in a bid to give authenticity to his claim. His common demeanor of telling people to 'ask for Major Kovalyov' to get something or approaching beautiful ladies all changed after the loss of the nose. Now, he felt powerless and unable to do anything, not even depend on his 'title' to get his own personal property-the nose, back. He was even reluctant to face the "slim girl [whose] cheeks flushed with the colour of the first rose of spring." He did not have any courage to approach or behave as he normally would have been, confident and powerful. And when he was asked his name at the advertising agency, he refused to reveal his name which he used to proudly proclaim to everyone.

And once the nose was returned, he felt a sense of joy that was so "intense" and regained his previous personality/ character of the 'powerful' and 'dashing' Major. Thus, I agree with the statement that the loss of the nose symbolizes the loss of power in the character of Major Kovalyov.

PLS don't take my answer off

You are the Financial manager of XYZ, Inc., a retailer of the exercise machine and related accessories. Your firm is considering opening up a new store in Beirut. The store will have a life of 20 years. It will generate annual sales of 5,000 exercise machines, and the price of each machine is $2,500. The annual sales of accessories will be $600,000, and the operating expenses of running the store, including labor and rent, will amount to 50 percent of the revenues from the exercise machines. The initial investment in the store will equal $30 million and will be fully depreciated on a straight-line basis over the 20-year life of the store. Your firm will need to invest $2 million in additional working capital immediately, and recover it at the end of the investment. Your firm’s marginal tax rate is 30 percent. The opportunity cost of opening up the store is 10 percent. What are the incremental cash flows from this project at the beginning of the project as well as in years 1-19 and 20? Should you approve it? Aa

Answers

Answer:

XYZ, Inc.

Incremental Cash Flows:

                                                           Year 0       Year 1 - 19         Year 20

a) Annual Machine Sales

      (5,000 x $2,500)                               $0  $237,500,000  $12,500,000

b) Annual Sales of accessories                 0        11,400,000          600,000

Operating Expenses (50% of a)                0     -118,750,000     -6,250,000

Investment                               -30,000,000

Working Capital investment     -2,000,000                                2,000,000

Income Taxes                                             0      -30,495,000    -1,605,000

Incremental Cash flows        -$32,000,000    $99,655,000  $7,245,000

b) I should approve the budget based on the incremental cash flows.

Explanation:

The incremental cash is cash flow that a company obtains when it takes on a new project.

a) Annual machine sales = $12,500,000 (5,000 x $2,500).  For 19 years, it will total $237,500,000 ($12,500,000 x 19).

b) Annual sales of accessories is $600,000 while for 19 years it is $11,400,000.

c) Annual operating expenses equal 50% of sales of machines.  This is equal to $6,250,000 ($12,500,000 x 50%).  For 19 years, it is $118,750,000 ($6,250,000 x 19).

d) Income taxes are applied after deducting tax depreciation from the annual revenue less operating expenses.  Based on the straight-line method, the annual depreciation is $1,500,000 ($30,000,000/20).

e) There is no tax on the working capital recovered in the 20th year.  It is possible to discount the cash flows to their present values, using the cost of capital as 10%.  The resulting figure is compared to the initial investments.  However, this may not be a requirement of this question.

Answers

Answer:

The metaphor allows Sebastian's speech to be something painful, similar to a doctor who refuses to take care of a wound, but starts rubbing it making it more painful.

Explanation:

The metaphor is a figure of language that allows a relationship to be established between two different terms, allowing one of them to assume the meaning of the other subjectively.

In lines 143-144 of "The Tempest" there is a metaphor that compares Sebastian's speech to a doctor who worsens a wound by rubbing it and causing more pain to the patient, instead of helping him. This means that Sebastian's words should help the king, but it is causing more pain and suffering than anything else.
