This is true. Hope I could help!
Answer:
A) True
Explanation:
Multilevel marketing is used by companies that engage in direct sales marketing and where each new salesperson or distributor must recruit more sales people to expand their activities. Some of the most famous multilevel marketing firms in the US are Avon and Herbalife.
The salesperson or distributor earns a fraction of the sales commissions that his/her recruited sales people sell. It is called the distributor's downline, and is shaped like a pyramid. In some countries this type of business is illegal because it works like a Ponzi scheme where new salespeople are recruited every time and in order to start working they must buy a certain amount of products. So a large percentage of the sales are made to other salespeople instead of customers.
Answer:
135,000 shares
Explanation:
The stock split is the re-denomination of the shares where the number of shares increases without a corresponding increase in shareholders' equity.For instance assigning two shares for each share had earlier with two new shares priced at the price of previous one share,however in calculating the number of shares applicable to basic earnings stock split is treated retrospectively,as if it has always been part of the company's shares
Opening number of shares 60,000
add increase due to stock split(2*60,000)-60,000 60,000
new shares half-way through the year 30,000*6/12 15,000
Weighted average number of shares 135,000
Answer:
B) the other firm does not view the announcement as credible
Explanation:
The reason is that the other firm thinks that the announcing firm will make losses as it will not be able to sell the products in an imperfect market where both the firms have identical cost functions and knew all about the cost. So increasing the production when the demand is the same will decrease the price of the product and result in increased losses to the announcing company.
Answer:
6.0%
Explanation:
Given that :
Marginal income tax rate = 32%
Interest rate before taxes = 8.8%
Annual after-tax rate of return if bond matures in 10 years will be the same as the annual after tax rate of return since the annual rate is constant.
Hence,
Annual after tax rate of return = Interest rate × (1 - tax rate)
Annual after tax rate = 8.8% × (1 - 32%)
Annual after tax rate = 0.088 × (1 - 0.32)
Annual after tax rate = 0.088 × 0.68
Annual after tax rate = 0.05984
= 0.05984 × 100%
= 5.984% = 6.0%
