Answer:
Profit Maximisation
Explanation:
Profit is the difference between total revenue (receipts) from sale & total cost (expenditure) on production.
Total Revenue = Price x Quantity ; Total Cost = Average Cost x Quantity
Economists study all the producer behaviour, based on assumption that : Goal of firm is Profit Maximisation.
Maximising Profit implies maximising the difference between Total Revenue & Total Cost [ TR - TC] . This further leads to producer equilibrium rule of Marginal Revenue = Marginal Cost [MR = MC] ; i.e additional revenue per unit sold equals additional cost per unit production.
Answer:
1. Dividends = Dividends, it decreases stockholder's equity.
2. Rent Revenue = Revenue, it increases stockholder's equity
3. Advertising Expense = Expense, it decreases stockholder's equity
4. Stockholder's pay cash into business = Issuance of stock, increases stockholder's equity.
Explanation:
Notes to above:
1. Dividends are paid from current year income or from retained earnings, as both current year earnings and retained earnings are clubbed into equity thus, with payment of dividend, equity is decreased.
2. Rent revenue is a part of income and income is part of equity as with increase in income there is increase in equity also.
3. Advertising expense will decrease the income and with decrease in income there will be decrease in equity.
4. Stockholder's pay cash into business as for issuance of stock and with issue of stock equity will increase.
Answer:
The corret answer is b. decrease assets and decrease liabilities.
Explanation:
First entry
Earnings Accrued (- Net Equity)
to various creditors (+ Liabilities)
Since the minutes of the assembly must indicate that they are taken from the profits of previous years, the accumulated profits are reduced.
Second entry
Miscellaneous creditors (- Liabilities)
to Banks (- Active)
The first entry represents transfer from one liability to another liability. Although we think that capital accounts are not liabilities, it is not true, given that the value of debt to shareholders of the value of your company, so we can group everything in the same bag.
When decreeing dividends, what is done is to cover a small part of that company value. That is, when dividends are decreed, they become part of a formalized liability.
The second entry is the cancellation of the liability, through one of the ways to extinguish the obligations: payment.
Answer:
$56.89
Explanation:
The computation of the current price of this preferred stock is shown below:
= Annual dividend ÷ required rate of return
where,
Annual dividend equal to
= Quarterly dividend × number of quarters in a year
= $1.65 × 4 quarters
= $6.6
And, the required rate of return is 11.6%
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the price would equal to
= $6.6 ÷ 11.6%
= $56.89
Answer:
NPV = -$132,193.77
Explanation:
best case NPV:
price per unit (+4%) = $48.88
sales per year (+4%) = 32,240
variable cost per unit (-2%) = $22.54
fixed costs (-2%) = $826,042
depreciation expense per year = $227,000 / 4 = $56,750
contribution margin per unit = $26.34
23% tax rate
discount rate = 11.5%
initial outlay = $227,000
net cash flows = {[($26.34 x 32,240) - $826,042 - $56,750] x 77%} + $56,750 = $30,885.392
NPV = -$132,193.77
