In this situation, the court would be in favor of Jeff. The terms or conditions of the contract cannot be fulfilled because he is under age. The dealer will clearly state that he thought Jeff was of legal age, but also admit that he did not check his age. With that in mind, the court would favor Jeff. However, Jeff would not be getting any money back because he knew he was underage and he should have never signed the contract.…

In the case of Honig v. Doe, it was the first case to reach the Supreme Court dealing with discipline of special education students. This case took place in 1988 after two students from the San Francisco School District with emotional disabilities and aggressive tendencies were threatened with expulsion. John Doe (a pseudonym) was a socially and physically awkward 17 year-old who had difficulty controlling his impulses and anger. From early on in school, physical abnormalities, speech difficulties, and poor grooming habits resulted in his being the target of classmates teasing and ridiculing him. One day, in response to taunts from a fellow student at a developmental center for disabled students, he reacted in an explosive manner anticipated by his individualized education (IEP). He choked a student with enough force to leave abrasions on the boy’s neck. Afterwards, while being taken to the principal’s office, John kicked out a window. John was suspended from school for 5 days. The principal recommended that he be expelled. A lawsuit was filed, and the federal district court issued a temporary order directing the school to return John to his then current educational placement.…
In the current situation, price per share should definitely not be the only choice criteria. One of the deal (Ampersand) sounds like a last minute call whereas the other (Venrock/BVP) is obviously the fruit of a long term partnership. While the first one looks sexy - regarding depressed economic situation -, the other one could bring a major customer and involve people that use to work together. Furthermore, the firm has already delayed the new round and thus need to secure a financing as soon as possible. In this context the insider agreement looks far more serious and viable.…
Q1. From the fact that Ender's parents had to receive permission to have a third child, I can imply that extreme global population growth has affected Earth in a negative way. Overpopulation created harm to the earth's natural resources and environment, causing the government to take action and issue a two-child policy, where families with more than two children are penalized. In Ender's Game, the term "third" is used degradingly and to dehumanize the third child in a family. This can be seen when Stilson remarks "We're people, not Thirds." The third child is seen as inhuman and is shamed for further harming nature and general wellbeing of the world, despite not being responsible for their birth. In Ender's case, however, he was born to be…
According to the case, Lowe’s management said that the growth rate of next two years would be 18% to 19%. So I prefer to use this rate as the growth rate of the first two years. The growth rate of the first two years would be 18.5%. The growth rate from 2004 to 2006 is estimated by the number of new stores, sq. footage and the historical sales. The following exhibit will show this result.…
By 1991, LL. Bean Inc was in the catalog business. LL Bean was a major cataloger manufacturer and retailer in the outdoor sporting specialty field.

They had six million active customers, and by 1991, twenty-two different catalogs ("books") were mailed. 80% of all their orders came in by telephone.…
Based on the information provided, the marketing strategies above and their stipulated current flaws, we think that the Indianapolis 500 marketing team should focus most of their efforts within the social media world. We also believe that the Indianapolis 500 should put on a concert and other events that would help attract people that aren’t necessarily racing fans. These concerts and events will attract attention on social media as well. Social media is such a connecting part of life for so many people in today’s society. We think this strategy could reach endless numbers of people. Also, marketing the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 on social media would help increase the hype for the race. The marketing team could post videos…
