Lynch was the loan officer at First Bank. Patterson applied to borrow $25,000. Bank policy required that Lynch obtain a loan guaranty from Patterson’s employer, a milk company. The manager of the milk company visited the bank and signed a guaranty on behalf of the company. The last paragraph of the guaranty stated, “This guaranty is signed by an officer having legal right to bind the company through authorization of the Board of Directors.” Should Lynch be satisfied with this guaranty? Would he be satisfied if the president of the milk company, who was also a director, affirmed that the manager had authority to sign the guaranty? Explain.

Ralph owned a retail meat market. Ralph’s agent Sam, without authority but purporting to act on Ralph’s behalf, borrowed $7,500 from Ted. Although he never received the money, Ralph repaid $700 of the alleged loan and promised to repay the rest. If Sam had no authority to make the loan, is Ralph liable? Why?

A guest arrived early one morning at the Hotel Ohio. Clemens, a person in the hotel office who appeared to be in charge, walked behind the counter, registered the guest, gave him a key, and took him to his room. The guest also checked valuables (a diamond pin and money) with Clemens, who signed a receipt on behalf of the hotel. Clemens in fact was a roomer at the hotel, not an employee, and had no authority to act on behalf of the hotel. When Clemens absconded with the valuables, the guest sued the hotel. Is the hotel liable? Why?

The following graph input tool shows the daily demand for hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. To help the hotel management better understand the market, an economist identified three primary factors that affect the demand for rooms each night. These demand factors, along with the values corresponding to the initial demand curve, are shown in the following table and alongside the graph input tool. (Note: All values are hypothetical.)

Demand Factor Average Canadian household income Round trip airfare from Vancouver (YVR) to Las Vegas (LAS) Room rate at the E

Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be scored on any changes you make to this graph.

Note: Once you enter a value in a white field, the graph and any corresponding amounts in each grey field will change accordingly.

Graph Input Tool Market for Triple Sevenss Hotel Rooms Price (Dollars per room) 350 150 Quantity Demanded (Hotel rooms per n

For each of the following scenarios, begin by assuming that all demand factors are set to their original values and that Triple Sevens is charging $350 per room per night.

If average household income increases by 20%, from $50,000 to $60,000 per year, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Triple Sevens(rises or falls)from__

rooms per night to___rooms per night. Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is(+ or -), hotel rooms at the Triple Sevens and airline trips between YVR and LAS are(complements or substitutes)

Triple Sevens is debating decreasing the price of its rooms to $325 per night. Under the initial demand conditions, you can see that this would cause its total revenue to(increase or decrese)Decreasing the price will always have this effect on revenue when Triple Sevens is operating on the(elastic or inelastic) portion of its demand curve.
