Answer:

334,900  shares

Explanation:

The appropriate number of shares to be used in basic earnings per share computation is the opening balance of common stock issued and outstanding adjusted for stock dividend since stock dividend is meant to be treated as if it has always been part of the issued and outstanding shares.

The shares reacquired appropriately adjusted for timing of reacquisition should be deducted from the figure gotten from the above computation.

Issued and outstanding shares(adjusted for stock dividend) 320000*1.07=342400

minus the reacquired shares=30000*3/12=7500

weighted average number of shares=342,400-7500=334900

Answer:

price-taking assumption.

free entry assumption.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive market is one in which different firms compete for consumers of their products. The characteristics of the perfectly competitive market are:

- products are nearly identical

- all the firms are price takers. That is they are not able to determine price independently

- buyer knowledge of information about products is perfect and available to all

- free entry and exit to the market

- resources are perfectly mobile

In the given scenario above two of these rules are not obeyed.

Alcoa was effectively the sole seller of aluminum because the firm owned nearly all of the aluminum ore reserves in the world.

So they determine the price ( they are not price takers)

Also since they own nearly all the aluminium reserves there is no free entry for new firms
