When it comes to insurance companies their main goal is correlate rates for policies as closely as possible with the actual cost of claims. The reason for this is because if the rate will be too high clients will move to other providers causing the company to lose market insurance or they will set the rates too low and cause them to lose money. So one tool that insurance companies use is credit scoring. The reason for this is because studies have shown that how a person manages their financial…

AEO presents some international operations in which American Eagle can be affected because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and economic slowdown. In an article by Nicole Sargeant, it is said that “the main risks that are associated with businesses engaging in international finance include foreign exchange risk and political risk. These risks may sometimes make it difficult to maintain constant and reliable revenue” (p.1). Even though the company has the advantage of expanding…

Founded in 1959, The Mertz Gilmore Foundation is a private, independent grant making institution that supports and promotes vibrant communities, the performing arts, and a sustainable environment (Mertz Gilmore Foundation1, n.d.). With an asset of approximately $100 million, its grant focuses on a small number of programs while maintaining relatively long-term commitments to its core areas of concern. The Mertz Gilmore Foundation has an extensive history of supporting dance in the city,…

The table below shows what colour the solution has turned after Amylase solution and Benedict’s solution has been added to Starch solution at different temperatures. The tests were completed three times each temperature to find an average. This graph resembles the results from the table above. Making it obvious to observe the unexpected results as the temperatures 2, 20 and 27 remained blue then 37 degrees changed to green and 60 degrees changed to orange. This experiment was carried out to…

What is the percentage of change in Reaction Time as age increases? As people increase in age, their reaction time can change as well, either increasing or decreasing. If kids in different age groups measure their reaction time using a test online, then the percentage of change in reaction time will increase with age. There are an abounding amount of things that can affect how fast or slow someones reaction test time is, along with what happens to your body when it is measured and the process of…

half of its maximum rate of reaction. (Oregon 2015) It reveals the enzymes affinity for the substrate and shows the magnitude of the enzymes affect on changing the rate of the reaction. For example, an enzyme with a high Km needs a large concentration of substrate to efficiently increase the rate of the reaction. (Oregon 2015) A low Km indicates that the enzyme will increase the rate of reaction with a small amount of substrate. Kcat is a constant that describes the turnover rate of an…

The effect of music genre on heart rate and blood pressure By: Kristin Hall Introduction: Heart rate measures the speed of the number of times the heart pulses per a unit of time, normally beats per minute (Biology Online, 2011). The number of pulses is based off the number of contractions of the ventricles. This number shows how much blood is flowing through the body, and thus how much hemoglobin and oxygen is being transported. When muscles become active they require more oxygen to function…

I have enjoyed working in Collections as a Collections Assistant I. Between using prior collections experience from other employers, college, and learning the systems of Bank of North Carolina I feel I have become a well molded employee for Bank of North Carolina. During the past year I have successfully completed all the requirements for a Collections Assistant II based on the Human Resources website. These requirements consist of calling on past dues until they are transferred to Special…

A. i) The rate of a reaction is the change of a substance’s concentration per units of time. The reaction rate of an experiment is dependent on many things including concentration, presence of a catalyst, and, most importantly, temperature. Temperature and reaction rate are directly correlated, which means that as one increases, so does the other. It is a general approximation that the rate of a reaction will increase by a factor of two for every 10°C jump in temperature. Increased temperature…

Firstly, the relative low income indicates the children in households below the sixty percent of median income. Secondly, the absolute low income, which indicate the children in households below sixty percent of 2010/11 median income up rated in line with inflation. Thirdly, combined low income and material deprivation indicates the children below 70 percent of median income together with as yet an undefined material deprivation index. Fourthly, the persistent low income is to be defined in 2014…
