Answer:

No

Explanation:

As a common stock holder, Marcus falls among the last class of stakeholders to be settled in XO's dissolution. A typical hierarchy of settlement during company dissolution is

  • Secured creditors
  • Unsecured creditors
  • Preference stock holder
  • Common stock holder

As such, as a common stock holder, Marcus will only be paid after all creditors and preference stock holders have been paid. And given that companies in liquidation are in that situation in the first place due to their inability to meet their obligations, there may not be enough resources left for common stockholders after distribution to creditors and preference stock holders.

11,250 - $375  = 10,875
10,875 / $2.50 = 4,350

sp2606 [1]

The total cost is $175.

The first thing that you need to do is calculate the per day cost per person.

$60 was spent on a three day trip. $60/2 = $20 per day. There were 4 adults on the trip, so $20/4 = $5. The cost of food is $5 per person per day.

On a trip with 7 adults the formula to solve the total cost is:

7 adults x 5 days x $5/day = $175.
