Rewrite the fоllоwing prоblem аs а limerick but do not solve it. A polymer beаm of length L = 70 mm and a = 24 mm supports a load of P = 2.7 N at both ends. The beam has cross-sectional dimensions b = 2.0 mm and h = 7.5 mm. Determine the magnitude of the maximum horizontal shear stress in the beam.
LA702а Business Assоciаtiоns Midterm Exаm Three fоrmer Olympic figure skating teammates are considering starting a youth figure-skating and performance camp called Silver Edge Skating Academy. The camp would operate during school breaks and summer vacation. It would offer skating instruction, choreography, strength training, and performance workshops for children and teenagers. The business would rent ice time at a private training center and use a passenger shuttle van to transport campers from a nearby church parking lot to the rink. Elena is now a full-time sports marketing executive. She has strong business contacts and can invest up to $90,000 from savings, but she cannot work in the business more than a few hours each week. She wants limited personal risk because she recently bought a home and does not want camp accidents, transportation claims, or business debts to reach her personal assets. Elena says she is willing to help with branding, sponsor outreach, and bookkeeping, but she does not want to supervise campers or staff. Marcus is the most famous of the three former skaters. He has little cash to contribute because he recently opened a private coaching practice, but his name recognition is expected to attract many families to the camp. He wants to teach advanced skating sessions, help hire coaches, and have meaningful control over the camp’s training philosophy. Marcus worries that Elena will treat him as merely “the celebrity face” of the business even though his reputation is the main reason parents will enroll their children. Priya never became as famous as Elena or Marcus, but she has extensive experience managing youth programs at a nonprofit recreation center. She can contribute about $15,000, and she has flexible daytime availability during the summer. She is willing to handle registration, parent communications, staff schedules, background-check paperwork, and safety protocols. Priya wants authority over daily operations because she believes the biggest legal risk will come from transportation, supervision, and child-safety procedures. The group estimates that it will need approximately $175,000 to rent ice time, lease and insure a shuttle van, buy equipment, pay assistant coaches, create a website, and cover the first summer’s expenses. A local bank is willing to lend $85,000, but only if at least one owner personally guarantees the loan. Elena refuses to personally guarantee the entire loan. Priya is willing to guarantee part of the loan if she receives defined management authority over operations and safety compliance. Marcus cannot qualify as a guarantor but says, “Without my name, there is no camp.” Before filing any paperwork or signing a formal agreement, the three friends launch a social media page stating: “Silver Edge Skating Academy … founded and operated by Elena, Marcus, and Priya.” Marcus also tells several parents at a skating competition, “We are opening our own camp this summer, and I am one of the owners.” Priya begins negotiating with vendors and the rink. Elena sends an email to the rink manager stating: “Please coordinate the summer ice-time schedule with Priya. She is handling startup arrangements for Silver Edge.” Two days later, Priya signs a contract reserving six weeks of morning ice time at the training center. The contract requires a nonrefundable deposit and includes a cancellation fee if Silver Edge withdraws. Priya also signs a short shuttle-van lease for the first two weeks of camp. Elena is upset because she wanted to compare prices before committing to the rink, but Priya says the best morning ice slots would have disappeared if she waited. The three founders now ask you for legal advice. They want to know whether they should operate as a general partnership, an LLC, or a corporation. They also want to know what their agreement should say about capital contributions, sweat equity, management rights, authority to bind the business, profits and losses, personal guarantees, insurance, fiduciary duties, exit rights, and personal liability. Advise Elena, Marcus, and Priya. In your answer, compare the advantages and disadvantages of forming Silver Edge Skating Academy as (1) a general partnership; (2) an LLC; and (3) a corporation. Discuss how each entity form would address personal liability, time commitments, desire for flexibility, management rights, authority to bind the business, profits and losses, exit issues, fiduciary obligations, and financing needs. Briefly address any agency or pre-formation authority issue raised by Priya’s contracts with the rink and shuttle-van company to the extent it affects risk allocation, authority, and entity choice. Conclude with a recommended entity form and the key terms their agreement should include.
