It is a common-law rule between the employer and the employee that the employment contract can be terminated at any time by either party. The termination of an employee by an employer can be either good or bad and for any reason. As long as that reason is not discriminatory. The at-will term doesn't apply to contract employees who are hired to work a certain length of time. United States is one of the few countries who allow this at-will policy. Many other countries require that an employer has to show just cause to terminate an employee. When working for a company, it should be stated in the employee handbook whether or not that company is an at-will company.

Week 3 will help students develop an understanding of what money is, what forms money takes, how the banking system helps create money, and how the Federal Reserve controls the quantity of money. Students will learn how the quantity of money affects inflation and interest rates in the long run, and production and employment in the short run. Students will find that, in the long run, there is a strong relationship between the growth rate of money and inflation. Students will review the basic concepts macroeconomists use to study open economies and will address why a nation's net exports must equal its net capital outflow. Students will demonstrate the relationship between the prices and quantities in the market for loanable funds and the prices and quantities in the market for foreign-currency exchange. Student will learn to analyze the impact of a variety of government policies on an economy's exchange rate and trade balance.
Assignment Steps
Purpose: The primary goal of this Assignment is to evaluate how communication of foreign policy interests can be influenced by different theoretical perspectives. Your task is to discuss and assess how effective are realist, liberal, and identity theoretical perspectives at communicating U.S. national interests.
Prepare: Read the Conclusion in the course text and the 2015 U.S. National Security Strategy (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..
Reflect: Effective communication is essential in conducting productive foreign affairs. One of the most important forms of communication is letting other states know national security interests. States work diligently to ensure that other states are aware of their national security interests. Conflict can sometimes erupt when national security interests are not received, are misunderstood, or are poorly communicated. As we discussed in Week Two, history is filled with examples of when states have not received, have misunderstood, o
Read the article: “Airbnb and the Unstoppable Rise of the Share Economy (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.”.

Business decisions are based on the time value of money. Bonds, stocks, loans, and other business investments are valued by determining the present value of an expected cash flow, which is also called discounting the cash flow. The time value of money finds considerable application in the decision-making processes of a business.
In this assignment, you will apply the basic principles of the time value of money to business decisions.
Tasks:
Part 1:
You are the chief financial officer of a firm. The firm has an expected liability (cash outflow) of $2 million in ten years at a discount rate of 5%.
- Calculate the amount the firm would need on the present date as savings to cover the expected liability.
- Calculate the amount the firm would need to set aside at the end of each year for the next
You are starting your own Internet business. You decide to form a company that will sell cookbooks online. Justcookbooks.com is scheduled to launch 6 months from today. You estimate that the annual cost of this business will be as follows: Technology (Web design and maintenance) $5,000 Postage and handling $1,000 Miscellaneous $3,000 Inventory of cookbooks $2,000 Equipment $4,000 Overhead $1,000 Part I 1 graph plus calculations You must give up your full-time job, which paid $50,000 per year, and you worked part-time for half of the year. The average retail price of the cookbooks will be $30, and their average cost will be $20.Assume that the equation for demand is Q = 10,000 – 9,000P, where Q = the number of cookbooks sold per month P = the retail price of books. Show what the demand curve would look like if you sold the books between $25 and $35. Part II Address the following questions: What is the elasticity of the demand for cookbooks bought this way? Is the business worth pursui
