How was the money distribution for the game Monopoly originally decided and what is it?
From Official Monopoly Rules*:Each player is given $1500 divided as follows:2 $500's, 2 $100's, 2 $50's, 6 $20's, 5 $10's, 5 $5's, and 5 $1'sAll remaining money and other equipment go to the Bank.While I could not find an explanation for why this ($1,500) is the designated amount given to each player, I assume that it is to ensure that players have enough initial money to purchase several properties but not enough to spend recklessly.The allocation of various bills is probably for convenience. It would be very annoying if in the beginning each player was given 3 $500 bills as those would have to be quickly exchanged for smaller denominations.*Apparently these rules are only prevalent in the U.S. and other standards are common in other countries.

Chapter 2: Explain why incentives matter. Evaluate the author’s ideas on black rhino conservation. Describe a perverse incentive and give an example from a high school student’s life. Incentives are a way of rewarding people to choose to do something. I might get a tax-refund if I choose a more environmentally friendly car. A perverse incentive might be to engage in drug use to receive peer acceptance. Chapter 3: Describe an externality. Explain why government regulation might be a good for an economy. Include specific examples of other roles the government plays in our economy. An externality is an unintended consequence of production, one that is harmful and where the producer doesn't bear the cost. Government regulations eliminate or tax producers that create externalities. Government provides us with national security, police, education, retirement, and more. Chapter 4: Discuss the main reasons why government should take a limited role in a market economy. Explain what is meant by “grabbing hand.” Because government is inefficient. By everyone pursuing their own self-interest "the invisible hand" prices will respond quickly to the demands of the consumer so the economy have an efficient allocation of resources.
Should I pay off my car or invest the money?
In this economy, you are lucky to borrow anything at 3% interest. I personally would borrow as much as I could at 3%. You should invest the money. Put it in a mix of equities and fixed income with the allocation depending on your time horizon. In the long run, a decently diversified portfolio should earn you about 7% per year, a profit of 4% above the 3% interest at which you borrow the money. If you have a very long time horizon, say 30 years, equities are probably your best bet since in the long run, stocks beat bonds in return. This is a concise answer to your question. If you need more details on how to invest your money, feel free to open another question and I can give you the specifics. Best,-Richard
Chapters in le petit nicolas?
Djodjo. New English pupil called George , joins the class with no knowledge of French, and is taught rude words by the boys. Parents eventually remove him from the school. Le football. Organisation of football game and allocation of roles. They are short of one person so eventually one child ends up being linesman and player at the same time because "he can run fast" and, since he has no flag, waves a dirty handkerchief. Les cowboys. Nicolas invites his friends to play in his garden and they play at Cowboys and Indians. Child's father volunteering to participate in game as "prisoner" is teased by next door neighbour who impersonates "Sitting Bull", and finally is left tied to a tree whilst the children go to play indoors and forget him. These are very short stories, amusing and easy to read . 'Le football' is actually only two pages long. You should try reading them for yourself as they contain too much details to be "summarised" in a comprehensive way and any summary fails to do them justice.
What happens to put options seller if the company file a chapter 11 bankruptcy?
You sold the contract and pocketed the premium? Then you would be obligated to buy the stock for the strike price. The stock is worth zero. So you do not even get to leg into a position, which is why smart money will sell puts on stocks they want to buy. Take the strike price and subtract the premium, that is how much you lost. There could be a distribution in the bankruptcy, but probably not. Don't sell puts on companies that can go bankrupt--sell calls and buy puts on them.
Can someone give the chapter-wise weightage of marks for each subject in chemical engineering GATE?
This depends on the question selection committee. You may get more questions in a particular subject depending on the difficulty level of the paper.For example in 2019 CRE had the most weightage compared to others. However, you can expect certain topics to be asked in Gate:Process calculation : Recycle, combustion, heat of reactions.PDC: Instrumentation, Stability analysis, second order process.Thermodynamics: Non-flow processes, chemical potential, extent of a reaction.Chemical Technology: Anything can be asked.Mass Transfer: Absorption, Distillation, Drying, Correlations.Fluid mechanics: Bernoulli's equation applications like pump, Flow meters, Packed beds.Heat transfer: Conduction in walls, temperature profiles, Conduction in cylinders, lumped heat parameter, Radiation shields.MUO: Sphericity, Mean diameters, Crushing laws, Dimensionless numbers- Flow number and power number, scaling up/down.CRE: Conversion for 1st and 2md order reactions in Batch, plug or Cstr, series/parallel reactions in Cstr, RTD, adiabatic reactors, Thiele modulus and effectiveness factor.Plant Economics: Cost Index, depreciation, Time value of money, capitalized cost, taxes, Net present value.
Do I have to pay taxes on small unofficial money I earn?
Ok so I have to pay taxes on it. How do you pay taxes when some of your "income" is trading cards with subjective values? Sometimes, and often, I don't make physical money, I make profit through the values of the trading cards which I hopefully resell at a later date. How do you do taxes on something with no direct profit, such as trading a card for x amount of more cards, selling one of those cards at a time and also trading for more? There is no way remotely to keep track of all of that. I probably do over 20,000 transactions each year, only some of which include the physical exchange of money. How is it self employment when I am not an official business? To put this into perspective, I am a casual player of the game who attends tournaments, and I can tell I make a sizable amount of profit by exchanging a $5 card for a $10 card then selling it and so on. It is like making a "bet" with someone that the sun will rise tomorrow and winning a dollar from it, that
