Events and activities happen so fast that there is no time to think or evaluate correct courses of action. Time to meditate and evaluate and think circumspectly has been absorbed in social media communications, emails, and events.

Quality family time with loved ones and children are non existent in many homes. Rarely do families sit down for a family dinner and discuss the events of the day. Informational technology has deteriorated family structure and is a contributor to anti-social behavior in high school teens. This can lead to violent behaviors such as mass shootings within our primary and secondary schools.

Is there substantive data to support this theory? What historical precedent is there to guide how much families should rely on informational technology. What are your conclusions?

a) “According to the long-run classical model, there will be a decrease in the world interest rate and the world level of investment when the aging populations of industrial countries start running down their savings and, at the same time, the investment appetite of emerging economies begins to slow down.” True/False, explain with the aid of one diagram for the world market for loanable funds.

Ben Halls is trying to decide whether to lease or purchase a new car costing $18,000. If he leases, he’ll have to pay a $600 security deposit and monthly payments of $450 over the 36-month term of the closed-end lease. Ben could earn 1% on the amount of any down payment or security deposit. On the other hand, if he buys the car then he’ll have to make a $2,400 down payment and will finance the balance with a 36-month loan with a 4% interest rate; he’ll also have to pay a 6 percent sales tax ($1,080) on the purchase price, and he expects the car to have a residual value of $6,500 at the end of 3 years. Ben can earn 4 percent interest on his savings.

Find the total cost of both the lease and the purchase and then recommend the best strategy for Ben.
