Answer:
The annual financial disadvantage of eliminating the division is $30,000.
Explanation:
contribution margin = revenue - variable costs = $200,000
fixed expenses = $500,000
net loss = $300,000.
If the division is eliminated, only $170,000 of the fixed expenses can be avoided, therefore the company's fixed expenses will remain at $330,000.
Therefore, eliminating the children's division will result in a $30,000 (= $330,000 - $300,000) decrease in net income.

Answer:
The firm reduced its price to maintain its market share.
Explanation:
An online streaming service is providing its basic package at the price of $14.99.
A competitor of the firm offers the same service at $13.99.
The firm in the reaction will also reduce its price to $13.99.
We know that the consumers always prefer the cheaper substitute, so if the competitor was providing the service at a lower price, it was most likely that the consumers will purchase from the competitor.
This would have led to a decline in the demand and thus the market share of the firm. So in order to maintain its market share. The firm reduced its price at the same level as its competitor.
Answer:
Market value of common stocks = 12,100 x $55 = $665,500
Market value of preferred stock = 310 x $91 = $28,210
Market value of bonds = 370 x $2,230 = $825,100
Market value of the company $1,518,810
Capital structure weight of preferred stocks
= $28,210/$1,518,810
= 0.0186
The correct answer is A
