wishes to finance all fixed assets and half of its permanent current assets with long-term financing costing 10 percent. Short-term financing currently costs 5 percent. Lear’s earnings before interest and taxes are $200‚000. Determine Lear’s earnings after taxes under this financing plan. The tax rate is 30 percent. - All fixed assets= $600‚000 - Half of its permanent current assets = $175‚000 - Long-term financing cost= 10% - Earnings before interest and taxes = $200‚000 - Tax rate= 30% Long-term

Problem statement. There’s this game called linear nim where 2 players who have 10 marks and so they have to figure out a strategy. Then who ever crosses out the last mark wins. You can also play it with 15 marks. But you have to figure what to do while playing this game and try to find patterns or strategies to win. Process. So what I did to attempt the problem is that I played the game a few times with my partner with the 10 marks and 15. So we can find some patterns and strategies that we can

Linear Model[edit] It is a one way model to communicate with others. It consists of the sender encoding a message and channeling it to the receiver in the presence of noise. In this model there is no feedback which may allow for a continuous exchange of information. This form of communication is a one-way form of communication that does not involve any feedback or response‚ and noise. (F.N.S. Palma‚ 1993‚ Shannon and Weaver[edit] The new model was designed to mirror the functioning of radio and telephone
