In the following essay we will find the analysis of a simulation for a company called Alumina, indicating the legal matters and risks they are taking. Also we will discuss a preventive plan for a company in Puerto Rico and how the Puerto Rican government treats torts and regulations. The simulation of Alumina, is very interesting. This fictitious company is accused of contaminating water with carcinogens. and consequently a girl who consumed the water was diagnosed with leukemia. The mother blames the company and is stating this to the news. The government empowers certain agencies to assist states in regulating the way companies do certain procedures to maintain a certain quality of life. An example of such agencies is the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This agency was created in 1970, if a standard is not met EPA has the authority to issue sanctions among other steps to ensure an environmental quality of life. The company needs to do something about this. The board of the company is Todd, Lloyd, and Richards. Todd is the legal council he firmly believes that the procedures for disposal of waste are efficient and that they are below the specified level in compliance with the Clean Water Act; thus he thinks the company should submit a story about this.

In order to do something at this regard, the Governor appointed a 40-member tourism task force to investigate ways in which tourism promotion could be accomplished in a more adequate manner. The task force has come up with the following plan: they recommend that the state legislature establish a “tourism marketing order” to raise funds from assessments the industry makes upon itself about the way in which each business should contribute to funding. Businesses that would be assessed include transportation companies, travel agencies, cruise lines, rental car companies, accommodations, attractions, recreation facilities, restaurants, retail outlets, factory outlets, and bars/drinking places. All funds raised would be used for state-wide tourism promotion. In order to implement this plan, the state legislature must first authorize a statewide referendum that would be conducted by the industry among its members to see if this plan is desired. If so, then how should the assessment be made, and at what level? Acting as consultants for the state Governor, answer to the following questions 1. What do you think of this plan? 2. Would it be acceptable to the majority of tourism businesses? 3. How would the assessment be most fairly made? To what extent different business should contribute? 4. What...

...of government offices need to work together to fulfill objectives that benefit the public. It is more beneficial to everyone involved for administrations to coordinate and collaborate together to resolve problems. Federalism, in part, is the system where federal government and state governments work together to the same end. The case takes place in Wichita, Kansas, in the summer of 1990. Acting for the Environmental Protection Agency, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment reported the downtown business district was sitting on an underground polluted lake, six square miles in size and fifteen feet below the surface. The area was called the Gilbert-Mosley site because the Gilbert-Mosley intersection was near the center. The lake was full of hazardous, commercial and industrial chemicals that caused cancer and other health issues. This discovery was very problematic for the revitalization of the declining downtown region. Like many urban areas at the time, due to the nationwide real estate slump, downtown Wichita was stagnant. It was difficult to attract new business to begin with. Because of the contamination, banks stopped making loans to develop the area because they feared liability if the EPA ranked the area for Superfund. A Superfund is a large fund set up to finance an expensive...

...the stock price. While the managers should do their best in maximizing the shareholders’ wealth, they should ensure that their behavior is ethical. Ultimately, the owners will only benefit if the business is operated within the legal and ethical limits. Q2. What is a limited partnership? Briefly explain what are the advantages and disadvantages of being a general partner and a limited partner. Suggested Solution: A Limited Partnership (LP) is a vehicle for doing business and is a subset of partnership. It is a partnership consisting of a minimum of two partners, with at least one general partner and at least one limited partner. An LP does not have a separate legal entity from the partners i.e. it cannot sue or be sued or own property in its own name. A general partner is liable for all debts and obligations of the LP. This is unfavorable to the GP but he or she has control over the operations of the business. The advantage of being a limited partner is such that he or she is not liable for debts and obligations of the LP beyond his agreed contribution. In addition, the LPs are able to leverage on the expertise of the GPs but the former are unable to take part in the management of the LP. Q3. Briefly discuss whether agency problems would arise in sole proprietorship and partnerships. Suggested...
