Deferred Compensation Plan

Decent Essays
This is very interesting and good story to review about chapter 4. After reading page 102 I realized how good is the deferred compensation plan to offer for both their players and business. Andrew can reduce the risk of spending money and increase the money value. And Falcons can invest rest of Andrew’s money to use in other various ways that results greater return and increase their profitability. I think deferred compensation plan is smart for both and results better in future. However, I was surprised Andrew would give up his deferred compensation in exchange for an immediate $2 million and determined to invest and he could receive greater return. I could understand that value of money can change yearly, monthly or even daily as time passes.

    “Dreams defeated and Dreams completed” In lorraine Hansberry’s “A Raisin in the Sun,” the play explores the difficulties ingrained in turning each of their dreams into reality. Domina, L. M. a explains when the play opens, the Younger family has no clear leader. Its power structure is complicated, especially in terms of American norms. Because the American nuclear family was unabashedly patriarchal in the 1950's, Walter would seem to be the head of the household. Yet although he might (or might not) make the most money, he is not the family's breadwinner in the traditional sense, since Ruth and occasionally Mama also work.…

    Just maybe if I would have had fuller understanding of what the benefits of a 401K were in my mid 30s I would possibly have money saved up. It also would have been nice to have a full time job to help with saving for the future too.

My job with the city at that time was just part time with no benefits and I was working something of a job at the VA Hospital at the same time.…

    I plan to sign up with a 401k retirement plan because most tech companies offer this kind of plan. Having a traditional 401k plan will allow me to save money towards my retirement without having to pay federal taxes on my savings until I withdraw. It also lets me partake in a mutual fund that allows me to invest into many kinds of stocks. This will help me generate revenue because investing in stocks usually does well against inflation and generates twice the revenue of bonds. The impact of personal taxes is nothing out of the ordinary because they affect every person that works.…

    Promissory Estoppel Essay

    • 707 Words
    • 3 Pages

    This essay seeks to discuss the Doctrine of Promissory Estoppel and the Doctrine of Consideration, as well as a clear analysis, with the use of case law, how Promissory Estoppel has become an exception to the general principle that a promise may only be enforced if it is supported by good consideration; it will ultimately conclude whether or not a promise to accept a smaller sum in discharge of a larger sum, if acted upon, is binding notwithstanding the absence of consideration. A contract is a legally binding agreement in law between two or more parties, which is enforced by law or by binding arbitration if it covers the elements of a valid legal agreement. For there to be a valid contract, three elements must be present, offer, acceptance, and consideration. If there is no consideration, there is no contract; however, with promissory estoppel instead of consideration, if there is a promise which induces reliance, the court would find some sort of liability for the promise.…
