sveta [45]

Answer:

b. Firm A engaged in predatory pricing.

Explanation:

Since Firm A and B are the only two companies that sell mail-order DVD rental subscriptions.

Firm A decided to price its subscriptions below average variable cost thereby causing Firm B to also sell subscriptions below average variable cost, but they went bankrupt and exited the market. Firm A then raised prices by 40% and is currently earning large, positive economic profits.

Based on this information only, an argument can be made that Firm A engaged in predatory pricing.

Predatory pricing is a marketing or pricing strategy that involves lowering the cost of goods and services for a short-term, in order to lure competing firms to lower their price, thus causing them to go bankrupt and exiting from the market.

A customer holds 100 shares of ABC Corp $100 par convertible preferred stock convertible at a 10 to 1 ratio. If ABC declares and
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

B. 100 shares of ABC preferred stock

Explanation:

Shares are ownership stakes of a company that are given out to individuals who contribute to capital base of a company.

Preference shares are those whose owners recieve preference in payment of dividends, a fixed dividend is paid to them.

Ordinary shares recieve less preference when dividend is paid, usually coming last in divedend payment.

In this scenario ABC has decided to pay 10% stock dividend. This will be paid to ordinary share holders.

So the person with 100 preference shares will have 100 preference shares

10% of par value of $100 is 0.1 * 100= $10

Number of shares are 100 so the value is now 100 * $10 = $1,000

Since the conversion rate of preference to ordinary shares is 10:1

Number of preference shares= 1,000 ÷ 10= 100 preference shares
