Answer and Explanation:
The computations are as follows
a. For basic earning per share
= Net income ÷ Average number of outstanding common shares
= ($16,888 - $1,483) ÷ 10462.282 shares
= $1.47 per share
b. Preferred stock dividends = Net income - Net income applicable to common shareholders
= $4,833 - $4,211
= $622
c. The net income applicable to common shareholders is
= Average number of common shares outstanding × Basic earning per share
= 10,527.818 × $0.40
= $4,211
d. The net income is
= Preference stock dividend + Net income applicable to common shareholders
= $1,349 + $10,583
= $11,932
e. Average number of common shares outstanding is
= Net income for common shareholders ÷ basic earning per share
= $10,583 ÷ $0.94
= $11,258.51
We simply applied the general formulas

Answer:
Based on the options you have mentioned under the "comments" section, I'd choose option A. Its not useful to let social media influence you and do the deciding for you!
Explanation:
Looking at the price, comparing the cost and quality of various similar products, reading and analyzing the product reviews are all great ways to be informed and educated before spending your hard earned cash on something.
However, getting influenced through social media or through any media and letting the fancy words, graphics and quotes in marketing campaigns cloud your rational judgement is not very wise (its actually Stupid!) of course they influence you in some way, yet you must always decide rationally through logical reasoning.
Do I really need this? Are there any other products with the same quality at a lower price? Why is this so expensive? How long will it last? are some of the other basic questions you should answer before making a purchase. In the process of fining answers to such questions, you'll eventually make an informed purchase!
Answer: $322 241
Explanation: Retained earnings is the capital that is left over after total dividends has been deducted and paid out. It is calculated as follows:
Retained earnings = retained earnings at the beginning of the year + net profits made during the current year - dividends paid out.
∴ Retained earnings = $318, 423 (opening Retained earnings)+ $11,318 (net profits / income) - $7,500 (dividends)
=$322,241
The $25,000 new stock issued generated income to the business, but this does not fall in the retained earnings line item. Rather it falls under the Ordinary Share Capital line item, which includes all the company's issued share capital.
