Monty currently has a Visa card from his bank with the following terms: 18% on purchases, 24% on cash advances with a 4% cash advance fee on the amount, and a default or penalty rate of 36%. His current statement shows a balance of $6,000. So far he has only taken one cash advance, withdrawing $1,000 from a casino in Las Vegas a year ago, which he has already paid off. Lately he has been having a hard time paying more than the minimum payment of 4% of his balance. The only assets he owns are a seven-year-old car and a $2,500 certificate of deposit that has a 5% APR. If Monty buys a new television for $800 this month and sends in a credit card payment of $1,200 when he gets his statement, how much interest will he pay on the television for the month

An employer who is considering hiring eva has asked donna, eva’s former supervisor, for a report on eva. in truth, eva’s work for donna has been only average. however, eva is donna’s friend, and donna knows that eva probably will not get the job if she says anything negative about eva, and donna knows that eva desperately needs the job. further, donna knows that if the situation were reversed, she would not want eva to mention her deficiencies. nevertheless, it has been donna’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when she has been asked for references by employers, and she knows that some of eva’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. finally, this employer has leveled with donna in the past when donna has asked for a report on people who have worked for him. should donna reveal deficiencies in eva’s past performance? (remember to use one of the three moral theories acceptable for this test to solve this dilemma. any discussion of any personal opinion, religious perspective, or theory other than the moral theories acceptable for this test will result in a score of "0" for this question.)
