Answer:

The total opportunity cost of investing in the business  is explained below:

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is also known as alternative cost, the cost incurred from giving up one benefit for an alternative. Kelly withdrew 1000$ from his account, which was giving him a 3% profit annually, and the total opportunity cost of withdrawing 1000$ is  30$ annually. Similarly, he withdrew another 2000$ at 7% interest rate that is 140$which he has to pay annually.

30$ + 140$ =170$

The total annual opportunity cost is 170$

Prestwich Corporation has two service departments and two operating departments. Costs of the Building and Grounds service depar
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

$20,880

Explanation:

Under the direct method we ignore services that are provided to the other service departments.

In order to allocate the building operation costs to Operating department A, we need to determine what percentage of the building space taken up by Operating departments is used by Operation Department A.

There is a total of 50000 square feet and Operating Department A occupies 60%(30000/50000 of that.

So Operating Department A will get 60% of the building costs

  i.e., 60% × 34800 = 20,880

A company's issued share capital throughout an accounting period consists of 500,000 common shares of 20 cent each and 100,000 p
ella [17]

Answer:

a. $0.30

Explanation:

Basic Earning Per Share (BEPS) = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stock.

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock calculation :

Net income after tax for the period                            $160,000

Less Preference Dividend                                           ($10,000)

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock $150,000

Weighted Average Number of Common Stock calculation :

Outstanding common shares                                      500,000

Therefore,

Basic Earning Per Share (BEPS) = $150,000 ÷ 500,000

                                                     = $0.30
