Answer:

Debt

Explanation:

Debt is the lowest cost source of financing because the <em>interest</em> return given to holders of debt has a <em>tax shield</em> (tax deductible) that is provided by the Section 11j  of the Income tax Act.

The other sources of finance give a return in form of <em>dividends</em>. Dividends are are not tax deductible hence they attract a huge cost.

The common stock of Buffalo Inc. is currently selling at $113 per share. The directors wish to reduce the share price and increa
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Buffalo Inc.

a. Journal Entry:

No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split.  

b. Journal Entry:

Debit Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million

Credit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million

To record the declaration of a 100% stock dividend.

When issued:

Debit Stock Dividend Distributable $84 million

Credit Common Stock $84 million

To record the issuance of stock dividends.

2. Both methods increase the outstanding number of shares by 100%.  However, with a stock split of 2-for-1, there is no journal entry except a memorandum record to state the split.

Secondly, with a stock split or 2-for-1, the market price is also halved.  This does not happen with a stock dividend.  The market forces will determine and correct the market price to an acceptable level.  A stock dividend requires some accounting entries to be made.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current market price of common stock per share = $113

Par value per share = $10

Book value per share = $68

Shares issued and outstanding = 8.40 million

a. The board votes a 2-for-l stock split:

Shares outstanding = 16.80 million shares

Market price = $56.50

Journal Entry:

No journal entry required except a memorandum to record the split.  The value of common stock remains the same.

b. The board votes a 100% stock dividend:

Shares outstanding will increase to 16.80 million shares

Market price = $113 and level off based on demand and supply.

Journal Entry:

Stock Dividend (Retained Earnings) $84 million

Common Stock $84 million

Credit Card #1
o-na [289]

Based on the information given, it can be deduced that the annual percentage rate (APR) is 24%.

The annual percentage rate simply means the yearly interest that's generated by a sum that's charged to a borrower. In this case, the APR is 24% after 6 months.

Also, the credit cards that have an annual fee will be credit card 2 and 3. It can also be deduced that the grace period is the same for the three credit cards while credit 3 has a membership.

If one pays the credit card bill on time and the balance each month, the best credit card is credit card 1. Lastly, when one has a balance from time to time credit card 1 is still the best.

= 60.9%
