Most recent work on the history of leisure In Europe has been based on the central hypothesis of a fundamental discontinuity between preindustrial and industrial societies. According to this view, the modern idea of leisure did not exist In medieval and early modern Europe: the modern distinction between the categories of work and leisure was a product of Industrial capitalism. Preindustrial societies had festivals (together with Informal and Irregular breaks from work), while industrial societies have leisure in the form of weekends and vacations. The emergence of leisure is therefore part of the process of modernization. If this theory is correct, there is what Michel Foucault called a conceptual rupture between the two periods, and so the v
Answer:should be noted that, first paragraph of the passage enlightens us on the difference between preindustrial and industrial society in Europe and how great was it to an extent that “the modern
distinction between the categories of work and leisure” (lines 4-5) cannot be reasonably applied to the former, which implies that there exists a discontinuity between the two periods.
Furthermore, the second paragraph argues that the discontinuity approach can accommodate historical data.
On a final note, the third paragraph admits that, while it is very useful in some aspects, this approach “can pose problems of its own” (line 25) and it then briefly describes these problems. All this points to Choice E as correct.
The word “dichotomy” as it appears in the last paragraph of the passage. One of the key claims there is that the dichotomy “reduces a great variety … to the simple formula” (lines 31-33). Therefore Choice C is correct.
More so, “Simple dichotomy” is also mentioned in line 26. The passage states that this dichotomy “remains of use in so far as it reminds us that the rise of industrial capitalism” (lines 28-29) was not just an economic phenomenon, but also a social and a cultural phenomenon. This points to Choice A as correct.
We should also not forget that, the main purpose of the passage is to discuss the idea of “the central hypothesis of a fundamental discontinuity between preindustrial and industrial societies” (lines 1-3) in terms of the development of the concept of leisure. Large volume of the passage is focused on demonstrating the usefulness of this hypothesis; nonetheless, the second part of the third paragraph mentions some “distortions” (line 31) that may result if the hypothesis is accepted. Therefore Choice B is correct. Choices A, D, and E are incorrect, as only one hypothesis/solution is discussed in the passage. Choice C is incorrect, as the passage does not mention that the “distortions” (line 31) caused by accepting the hypothesis are illusory
One of your subordinate employees, Timothy, worked extra hours on Tuesday and Thursday so he could attend Ash Wednesday services at his church. Which of the following statements is true?

c. Supervisors can use individual discretion when deciding whether to allow a subordinate to adjust his work schedule for religious practices.
d. Permitting Timothy to make up time lost due to the observance of religious practices is a reasonable religious accommodation.
Answer:
D. Permitting Timothy to make up time lost due to the observance of religious practices is a reasonable religious accommodation.
Explanation:
This statement is true in line with normal workplace ethics. Also, been his superior it would favor the company if Timothy is asked to make up time lost due to the observance of his religious practices.
A reasonable employer knows that his employees also have a constitutional right to freedom of worship, and would be flexible in the company policy on working hours.
Which of the following statements concerning capital structure theory is NOT CORRECT?
A. The major contribution of Miller's theory is that it demonstrates that personal taxes decrease the value of using corporate debt.
B. Under MM with zero taxes, financial leverage has no effect on a firm's value.
C. Under MM with corporate taxes, the value of a levered firm exceeds the value of the unlevered firm by the product of the tax rate times the market value dollar amount of debt.
D. Under MM with corporate taxes, rs increases with leverage, and this increase exactly offsets the tax benefits of debt financing.
E. Under MM with corporate taxes, the effect of business risk is automatically incorporated because rsL is a function of rsU.
Suppose that the firms in the perfectly competitive oat industry are currently receiving a price of $2 per bushel for their product and there are constant returns to scale. The minimum possible average total cost of producing oats in the long run is $1 per bushel. Other things being equal, it follows that:
Answer:
The firms make a $1 per bushel in profit.
Explanation:
When the price is greater than the long run total costs, then a profit is being generated. This helps the firms in the perfectly competitive oat industry to remain in the industry since they are making 100% profit on their investments, which they may not get elsewhere. If they are not making such large profits, some of the firms may decided to leave the industry and relocate their resources to other industries where they can make enough profits.
At a trustee's sale, a property was sold for $160,800. The fees and court costs amounted to $1,600. The property was encumbered with a first deed of trust in the amount of $156,500 and a second deed of trust in the amount of $2,000. Which of the following is correct?
a. There would be a surplus, which would go to the beneficiary
b. There would be a surplus, which would go to the trustor
c. There would be a surplus, which would go to the trustee
d. The beneficiary of the second trust deed could initiate court action for a deficiency against the trustor
Answer:
Option C, there would be a surplus, which would go to the trustee, is the right answer.
Explanation:
The property sold at a price = $160800
The fees and court cost = $1600
First deed amount = $156500
Second deed amount = $2000
Total costing = 1600 + 156500 + 2000 = $160100
Since the selling amount is greater than the cost amount. Thus, there will be surplus to the trustee. So, Option c is correct.

An existing customer of a brokerage firm wishes to buy an initial public offering that he has heard good things about. The registered representative only has a limited number of shares to sell and explains to the customer that the offering is already "sold out." The customer tells the registered representative "If you can get me some of the stock, I will drop off cash payment in full today, with a little extra for you." The registered representative:_________
a. Can accept the customers offer
b. Cannot accept the customers offer because cash payment for securities purchases cannot be excepted from a customer
c. Can except the customers offer if the extra cash payment does not exceed $500
d. Cannot except the customers office
Answer: d. Cannot accept the customer's offer
Explanation:
Apart from the offer being unethical, the registered representative also cannot accept the customer's offer because the registered representative is prohibited from accepting cash directly from a customer.
The cash would have to be deposited in the account of the customer so as to make it more legal. Even at that however, with a limited number of shares, ethical issues come into play about how the shares can be distributed between clients so the registered representative cannot accept the customer's offer.

c. either a centralized, principal, or critical-path organizational structure.
d. either independent, consolidated, or hybrid profit centers.

Answer:
b. a functional (departmental) organizational structure.
Explanation:
Companies engaged in a single line of business most commonly utilize an organizational structure that can be a functional (departmental) organizational structure.
A functional (departmental) organizational structure is a type of structure used to organize staffs by dividing them into various departments based on their skill set, roles or functions and knowledge.
These departments which are vertically structured may include, finance, information and communications technology, sales and marketing, research and development, customer service etc. Also, the various departments are headed by a functional manager who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing, managing and reporting to the executive management.
Hence, a functional (departmental) organizational structure enhance efficiency and an improved quality of production because workers having similar skills, knowledge and experience are grouped together to achieve common goals and objectives.
Tombstones are produced in a competitive price-searcher market. One producer, Rolling Stones, sells 20 tombstones a week at a price of $500 each. Its average total cost is $600. From this information, we can conclude:_______
a. new tombstone firms will want to enter.
b. this producer is losing $2,000 a week.
c. this producer is making an economic profit of $400.
d. this producer is setting MR = MC.
e. this producer should increase production.
Answer:
b. this producer is losing $2,000 a week.
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
As we know that
Profit = (Price - Average total cost) × Quantity
= ($500 - $600) × 20
= -$2,000
This negative amount represents that there is a loss of -$2,000
Hence, option B is correct as the producer losing $2,000 in a week
Therefore all the other options are wrong
