Washington Company and it’s two divisions:

Adams Division:
Net (After-Tax) Income: 5,000
Operating Assets: ,000,000

Jefferson Division:
Net (After-Tax) Income: 5,000
Operating Assets: ,250,000

Washington’s actual cost of capital was 12 percent. In addition, Washington Company’s top management has set a minimum acceptable rate of return equal to 8 percent.

This is in my homework but not in the book. Please help.
There’s supposed to be two answers, one for each division.

Have been in counseling for about 4 weeks and while things have been getting better tonight we had a fight, and I feel myself seeing the glass as half empty again. My wife lives 2 miles away at her mothers with our 2yr old son, and has been for a year. All I want is for her to come home, but she won’t stay and refuses and is now starting to question the counselor’s methods and not fully doing the homework. I mean what are we paying for and if she won’t give effort then whats the deal? Will it improve anyone been to counseling out there?

My husband has been throwing around the divorce word for months. For the past 2 years, we’ve been to countless therapists, to no avail. He takes no responsiblity for his abusive behavior and constantly plays the victim. A couple of weeks ago, he came home saying "that’s it, we’re getting a divorce, we need to divide our assets and this will all be over by the end of the year!" He also told me he was going to move into our old house, that we have rented in the past, but the tenants just moved out. So–I started working on the division of our assets, took his and my worksheets to a CFP/CDFA, requesting his help in dividing it fairly. We went over the reports together, but still have a few things to figure out. He also asked me to make a list of all of our furniture & think about how we should divide it.

OK–so, I’ve done my "homework" for this control freak that I’ve been married to for 25 years. Now, he’s bullying me one day and the being peaches and cream the next, wanting to meet for lunch, dinner. I’ve gone along reluctantly, thinking I should try to be amicable. But, should I?

I’ve asked for a timeline as to when he’s moving to the other house. He hasn’t given me an answer. Keeps saying he’s got to clean it up more or this & that. I’ve told him I need him out of my space and to please move out.

I’m wondering if he’s bluffing, stalling, or what the heck is going on. Is it because I’ve stood up to him for the first time in my life, telling him I’m tired of the verbal and emotional hell he puts me through? I’m not sure what to do next? Does anyone know where this man is coming from?

Ok a couple of questions:
1- What sorts of challenges does the issue of same-sex marriage present for federalism?

2- Who gets to decide if same-sex marriages or legal or illegal? State government or Central Government?

3- Does the central government forbid same-sex marriages?

4- Does the state government allow it?

5- What does DOMA have to do with it all?

Please any help would be greatly appreciated. Web sites would aslo be a huge help.
Please no comments about me not doing my own homework, I have been working on this paper for a week and its due tomorrow and I am really lost.
Please mature answers only.
Also I am not telling if I am for or against same-sex marriages, I need both sides of the store.
I am also not looking for personal beliefs, I am looking for facts.
Thanks so much, and comment if this does not make sense.
Also comment even if someone has said exactly what you would say.
Please keep away from any language.
Thanks again!

My brother is going through a messy divorce. He has custody of the two children and he and they have been living with me for 1 and a half years. I’ve put them to bed, fed them, read to them, picked them up from school and helped with homework, and I’ve pretty much been a mom to them. Their mother is a real piece of work. She abandoned them for a week to go to a guy she met on the internet to only find out he didn’t make as much as my brother so she went back to my brother and said she wanted to "try again." What a joke, (she only ever cares about the money) stupidly he took her back, and now it’s a divorce to end all divorces with a custody battle to boot. (she’s only in it for child support $)
Now my brother had to go away on business for 5 months. So he tried to set up a pretty reasonable schedule for the kids to see their mom (they do see her plenty.) (We haven’t received and answer to this request yet, and now I doubt we will) Well, she took them for Christmas break with the knowledge that she was supposed to return them to me the day before school started and she never did. I waited for them and when she never showed up my brother called her for me and after a dozen phone calls she simply said, "I’m not bringing them back." I called the police and they wouldn’t do a thing because "she’s the mother." Even though she is the non-custodial parent! My brother was on the phone with the cops telling them he didn’t give her any more permission to have them longer then Christmas and they STILL wouldn’t do anything! Even though I had all the paper work stating that he is the custodial parent!
There’s a custody date a few days away, so the cop actually said "Well, what’s a few more days?" She kidnapped them, she won’t let them call and she won’t answer my calls, and I miss them like crazy and the law won’t help! I’ve scoured the internet but I can’t find a support group for AUNTS in this situation. Please, does anyone know a real website I can go to? I miss them so much and really want to talk to someone who’s going through something like this too.

Generally speaking (this is for homework I’m doing) can an attorney represent both parties in a divorce proceeding if they both agree on all issues?

I don’t need to know about if it is a good idea, just if it is allowed or if it would be considered multiple representation.

What are your views on how divorce effects children and what is your information to back it up? Sources/websites?
thanks!
fyi..i am not trying to get people to do my homework for me. i am having a heated conversation with my husband and i want some opinions and suggestions. he wants a divorce and i do dont, because of the effects on my kids.

I don’t have college degree. I attended out of high school for approx. 1.5 years. I sold cakes out of my home when I met husband. He set me up in a legitamate bakery. I never earned a paycheck in the bakery and it closed after 1.5 years. I sold insurance part time at age 18. I never earned more than ,000 in any year and have not worked since I was 26. I am now 37 with 2 elementary children who require a great deal of time due to allergies and complex learning needs. I volunteered lots of time to the school the year before husband and I seperated.

Husband is being very tough. This current matter revolves around a scheduled support hearing. We own a 1.5 million dollar home and have lived well. He is claiming he has not had an income since 2004. My attorney is good, so is hubby’s.

Do you know of any resources I can investigate in addition to your answer? Of course I will consult my attorney, however, his hourly rate is high so I prefer to do my own homework. Thanks

Having trouble communicating with daughters 12,15 & 18. I’ve been living by myself for the last year. Told I ask to many questions. Just trying to find out whats new in thier lives. Am I out of line ? Asked the 15 y.o. "how her sister was tonight" on the phone and she got lippy. 12 y.o. says she glad we didn’t get 50/50 parenting time over attemping to help her with homework. 18 y.o. suggests maybe everybody is stressed, final orders is 3 days away after over year of lawyers etc. 18 y.o. says I ask same questions"like how is everybody". I learned from that to talk about something else. still feel alot of resentment or something. Suggestions are welcome !
I didn’t and don’t want a divorce. Parental evaluator lists 4 causes of failed marriage. Communications, peri-menipause,my drinking and failing health of our mothers(both requiring lots of help (stress).
I made some poor choices drinking to cope with stress and physically assualted wife once in long, long term marriage. I’m accoutable for my choices and kids see I got help for anger, depression and alcohol (haven’t drank in 13 months, no desire). Wife just gave up, won’t even talk about reconcilliation. Justs wants divorce and vindictive and greedy. Not feeling self pity any longer, I changed because, I WAS WRONG and still love her. I know this isn’t the right thing to do, it’s out of my control. Just have faith some day she’ll talk and maybe. Any comments now ? Just want the best for kids and wife.
