Answer: When assessing the risks of investment, one should consider the political, economic, and legal risks of doing business in either Russia or Poland. The risk in Russia would probably be considered higher than the risk in Poland since Poland has been a member state of the European Union since 1 May 2004, with the Treaty of Accession 2003 signed on 16 April 2003 in Athens as the legal basis for Poland's accession to the EU.
Poland has already gained benefits and stability offered by the EU. Russia, by contrast, is still many years away from even being in a position to be considered by the EU for membership.

Answer: 18.8%
Explanation:
Simple rate of return on investment = Incremental net operating income / investment
Incremental net income = Operating savings - Annual cost
= 145,000 - 420,000/6 years
= $75,000
Net investment = Cost of new machine - salvage value of old
= 420,000 - 21,000
= $399,000
Return on investment = 75,000/399,000
= 18.8%
Answer:
$6,500 was distributed to preferred shareholders
Explanation:
Dividend distributed to preferred share is based on the predetermined rate associated with these share. When the dividend is declared preferred share dividend is paid first. The remainder is distributed between the common stockholders.
Value of Preferred share = 8000 shares x $10 par value = $80,000
Preferred Dividend = $80,000 x 5% = $4,000
Accrued dividend of 2016 = $4,000 - $1500 = $2500
Total Dividend Accrued = $2,500 + $4,000 = $6,500
