...Discussion Questions: Chapter 8 1) It is advisable to borrow in order to take a cash discount when the cost of borrowing is less than the cost of foregoing the discount. 2) Larger firms tend to be in a net creditor position because they have the financial resources to be suppliers to credit. The smaller firm must look to the larger manufacturer or wholesaler to help carry the firm's financing requirements. 3) New banking laws allowed more competition and gave banks the right to expand across state lines to create larger, more competitive markets. They also increased bank mergers. 4) The prime rate is the rate that a bank charges its most creditworthy customers. The average customer can expect to pay one or two percent (or more) above prime. 5) LIBOR stands for London Interbank Offered Rate. It is consistently below the prime rate. 6) The use of a compensating balance or minimum required account balance allows the banker to generate a higher return on a loan because not all funds are actually made available to the borrower. This benefit to the lender need not be a disadvantage to the borrower. The borrower may, in turn, receive a lower quoted interest rate and certain gratuitous services because of the compensating balance requirement. 7) Commercial paper can be either purchased or issued by a corporation.

...“One of the aims of the registration is to make title more secure and easily provable. It is supposed to set up a mirror of ownership. The mirror principle – or rather, aspiration – is hostile to interests that do not appear on the registered title. Like many systems registration has it’s own momentum; it tends towards tidiness and completeness and to the elimination, as far as possible, and of interests that a purchaser cannot discover from the register ”. Discuss and consider the extent to which the Land Registration Act 2002 meets the principles referred to in to in the quotation, including in your answer discussion of the extent to which pre-registration concepts such as notice might continue to persist in relation to difficult cases. In the following essay I shall discuss the above quotation. The Land Registration Act 2002 [1] came into force on the 13th October 2003. The Act completely repeals its predecessor the Land Registration Act 1925 [2], and presents a complete volte-face of how to organise the system of registered land in the UK. The LRA 2002 promotes a system of title by registration. The aims of the Act as set out in the Law Commission Report Number 271 are to create a register that is an accurate reflection of the true state of title to a registered estate of land at any time. The Act also aims to implement Electronic - Conveyancing, and to allow the state of title to be investigated with the minimum of additional enquiries and inspection [3]...

...Discussion Questions You are expected to contribute to the class discussion in a substantive way three out of seven days each week. Thus, you will need to answer discussion questions (DQs) posted each week as well as respond to my other posts. In addition, you should read, analyze, and respond to other students’ answers to the discussion questions and posts as well as to comments by me or other students. Remember, “I agree” is not enough. Use real world examples, references to the texts or outside reading, and good reasoning in both your DQ answers and discussions. Be positive and diplomatic in your responses to one another. Build on others’ comments, suggest alternatives, and constructively disagree, if warranted. Take advantage of the “time delay” inherent to online discussions and review your responses prior to posting them. Each week I will be posting a thread in the Main Forum for each DQ. Please answer them there. NB: Because I grade students' on their ability to read, think, and write, do not simply skim, copy, and paste from sources to answer DQs. In other words I want to see your thoughts, not lengthy quotes. Each week you are to answer your choice of a minimum of 3 out of the 5 or 6 DQs assigned for that week. The DQ assignments require you to prepare a 250-word response to each of your Discussion Question responses. Week One Discussion Questions * 1) What is the definition of a project? What are some of the elements that differentiate a...
