polet [3.4K]

Answer:

b. The minimum point on the average total cost curve

Explanation:

the marginal cost is the cost of making or producing one more additional unit of a product and then average total cost is the average of the total cost to produce units so if both these curves intersect then that means that will be the minimum point on the average total cost curve because at a point where if the marginal cost is less than the average cost then the average total cost will fall so the intersection point shows where the average total cost is a minimum because if its above that point the average total cost will rise.

Stock prices tend to ignore unexpected changes in dividend payments. Companies prefer to cut dividend payments rather than borro
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.

Explanation:

Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.

Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.
