The number of cups he should drink is two.

<h3>How many cups should he drink?</h3>

A rational consumer should consume a product as long as marginal benefit is equal or greater than marginal cost.

Marginal cost is the additional cost generated by producing an additional unit of output. Marginal cost is $2.50. Marginal benefit is the benefit derived from consuming one extra unit of a good.

Two cups of coffee should be drank because their marginal benefit is greater than the marginal cost.

The numerator of the return on common stockholders' equity is_____________. a.income before income tax b.operating income minus
elena-s [515]

The numerator of the return on common stockholders' equity is net income minus preferred dividends.

Option d

<u>Explanation:</u>

Return on common stockholders' equity which is also named as return on equity (ROE) ratio evaluates the accomplishment of a company in resulting income for the benefit of common stakeholders.

<em>Use of return on equity:</em>

  • Isolates common equity returns
  • Can be used to evaluate dividends
  • Evaluates the use of capital by the management

It is calculated by income available for stockholders divided by the total number of common stock and is expressed or represented in percentage. Income available for common stockholders can be arrived by reducing preference dividends from Net income.

That is, \text { Net income }-\text { Preference dividends }=\text { Equity available for common stockholder }

Hence, net income minus preferred dividends is the right answer.
