This can be one in which you have worked, one you have experienced as a customer, or which you have otherwise experienced or observed.

Catherine (wife) and Peter (husband) Mallen had lived together unmarried for some four years when Catherine got pregnant and a marriage was arranged. Peter asked Catherine to sign a prenuptial agreement. Although his financial statement attached to the agreement did not state his income at $560,000 per year, it showed he was wealthy, and she had lived with him for four years and knew from their standard of living that he had significant income. Catherine contends that failure to disclose Peter’s income was a nondisclosure of a material fact when the agreement was drawn up and that accordingly the agreement is not valid. Peter contends that he fully disclosed his net worth and that Catherine was well aware of his significant income. Further, he contends that disparities in the parties’ financial status and business experience did not make the agreement unconscionable.
Please answer ALL of the following questions in your discussion:
Was the agreement obtained through fraud?
Was the agreement obtained through duress?
Was the agreement obtained through nondisclosure of material facts?
Was the agreement unconscionable?

what you feel like are the two most important policy proposals/directions that should be implemented/explored in the US health care system to combat the challenges of an aging population and a distressed Medicare program. This includes Medicare reform, end of life care, technology adoption, medical ethics, etc. What I want you to do here is essentially a mini- EPA which is good practice for your term paper. For each policy describe the economic impact (intended and unintended), any political concerns, and justify why the policy is one of the most important in your mind. This should be roughly three paragraphs in length.

Universal Technologies, Inc. has identified two qualified vendors with the capability to supply some of its electronic components. For the coming year, Universal has estimated its volume requirements for these components and obtained price-break schedules from each vendor. (These are summarized as “all-units” discounts in the table below.) Universal’s engineers have also estimated each vendor’s maximum capacity for producing these components, based on available information about equipment in use and labor policies in effect. Finally, because of its limited history with Vendor A, Universal has adopted a policy that permits no more than 60% of its total unit purchases on these components to come from Vendor A.
