Part c.

The difference between the Net Income under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing is due to Fixed Manufacturing Costs that are deferred in Inventory. This needs to be reconciled accordingly.

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

b. Will always be higher than the dividend paid per share

Explanation:

A firm pays dividend to it's stockholders based upon it's earnings.

Earnings per share (EPS) is expressed as:

= \frac{Earnings\ available\ to\ stockholders}{No.\ of\ stocks\ outstanding}

Dividend payout ratio on the other hand is expressed as:

= EPS (1 - b)

wherein, b = retention ratio which denotes the percentage of earnings retained by a firm i.e not distributed as dividends.

Thus, a firm's earnings per share would always be higher than the dividend paid by it per share.
