ELEN [110]

Answer:

The new EPS is $ 3.16  

Explanation:

In order to compute the earnings per share after the share repurchase the shares repurchased must deducted from the weighted average number of share of 320,000 before repurchase so as  to arrive at the number of shares eligible for the earnings after such repurchase.

The number of shares repurchased=$634,000/$62.97

                                                           = 10,068.29  

The average weighted number of shares after repurchase is  309,931.71  (320,000-10,068.29)

EPS after repurchase=$980,000/309,931.71

                                   =$3.16 per share

Anika [276]

Answer:

Continue operating; $699

Explanation:

The equilibrium price is $10.

MR = MC at 233 units of output.

At this output level, ATC is $12, and AVC is $9.

The AFC or average fixed cost

= ATC - AVC

= $12 - $9

= $3

The total fixed cost

= AFC\ \times Q

= \$ 3\ \times\ 233

= $699

The equilibrium price is able to cover the average variable cost so the firm should continue production in the short run.

pogonyaev

Answer:

D. $375,000

Explanation:

Expected return of 13% for $1,000,000 will be $130,000

If we invest $375,000 in Stock X, our expected return based on 18% will be $ 67,500 and the remaining $625,000 will be invested in Stock X, therefore expected return based on 10% will be $ 62,500 and thereby giving the total return of $130,000 which is 13% of $1,000,000 and hence $375,000 will be invested in Stock X
