Exclusive_ Indian car makers propose tax cut on imports in trade deal with Britain _ Reuters.pdf Actions Here’s the direct Reuters (R) article link if the pdf is partly truncatedLinks to an external site. Please read the article above first. Ignore pages after Page 6, as said article ends there. Based on the article above, please answer the questions below. Whenever you make any claims, they SHOULDN’T be opinions! They should be statements based on the article, or the material you’ve learnt in this course. Your statements SHOULD be directly from the article, and NOTHING from the Internet or AI! If so, the assignment will be graded at 0 (zero). ANYTIME YOU READ “TAX CUTS ON IMPPRTS”, PLEASE TREAT THEM AS TARIFF REDUCTIONS! We learnt about TARIFFS in Chapter 3 of our textbook. The article claims “Import taxes from 60% to 100% in the world’s fourth-largest car market rank among the highest globally, drawing criticism from companies such as Tesla Inc (TSLA.O)Links to an external site., which shelved entry plansLinks to an external site. because of the high tariffs.” Why is it that the Indian government has allowed so far 60% – 100% tariffs on imported cars? Your answer needs to be found in the article OR in the chapter that you studies (3). NOT in Internet desktop research! (50-75 words, 8 pts). Why are Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors and Mahindra resisting this change? Again, use the article and what you have learnt in class. NO desktop research. (50 words max, 4 pts). All else equal, would the WTO – a priori – be pleased about this potential development? Meaning a possible reduction of Import Taxes or Tariffs. If yes why? If no why? (50 words max, use your arguments based on the textbook material, 3 pts) Say you’re a resident of India, and you were planning to buy a Range Rover made in the UK. All else equal, and given this article, and given you have the money available to buy the car – would you, a priori, buy the car or postpone your purchase? If yes why? If no why? (50 words max, use your arguments based on the textbook material, 5 pts) Good luck!

In the parking lot of a mall, two drivers, while simultaneously backing up, each carelessly struck the other’s car. Neither suffered physical injuries, but the damages to the plaintiff’s car totaled $10,000; damages to the defendant’s car were $1,000. The plaintiff sued to recover the damages to his car and the defendant counterclaimed for the damages to her car. At trial, it was determined that the plaintiff was 70% at fault and the defendant 30% at fault for the accident. The applicable jurisdiction has enacted a modified (i.e., partial) comparative negligence statute. After taking into account his own liability to the defendant, how much may the plaintiff recover from the defendant?

A man drove to his friend’s house for a party and parked his car on the street in front of the house. The street had a steep incline, but the man failed to apply his emergency brake before exiting his car. A couple moments after exiting the car, the man stopped 20 feet behind the car to tie his shoes. The friend, who had come outside to greet the man, noticed that the man’s car started to roll backward toward the man. The friend immediately ran toward the man and pushed him out of the way of the car, which slammed into a telephone pole a couple hundred feet down the street. The friend broke his hand in diving to the ground to protect the man. If the friend brings a negligence action against the man for his personal injury, will he succeed?

Every morning, a janitor at a gym cleaned all of the workout equipment, including the treadmills, using a disinfectant spray. One morning, the janitor was especially tired because he had been up late the night before. As a result, he was careless with the disinfectant spray, using too much and then not wiping it off adequately. A woman stepped onto one of the treadmills right after the janitor had cleaned it and turned it on. As the running belt started to move, the woman’s foot slipped because of the excess disinfectant spray. She fell off the treadmill and broke her nose. The woman, who was a master whiskey taster, was scheduled to judge a whiskey competition that evening. However, due to her broken nose, the woman was unable to adequately smell or taste the whiskeys. The competition was cancelled and the liquor company that hosted it lost thousands of dollars. The liquor company sued the gym under a theory of vicarious liability to recover its losses. Will the liquor company prevail?
