Answer:
$89.41
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Dividend declared = $6.30 per share
Tax rate = 20%
Selling price of the stock = $94.45
Now,
Aftertax dividend = Dividend × ( 1 - Tax rate )
= $6.30 × ( 1 - 0.20 )
= $5.04
Thus,
Ex-dividend price = Selling price - Aftertax dividend
or
Ex-dividend price = $94.45 - $5.04
or
Ex-dividend price = $89.41
Answer: Yes. AudioCable should buy a new equipment
Explanation:
Audiocables Inc. without new equipment:
Selling price: $1.40
Variable cost: $0.50
Fixed cost: $14,000
Sales: 30000 units
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $14000 + ($0.50 × 30000)
= $14000 + $15000
= $29000
Revenue = Sales × Selling price
= 30000 × $1.40
= $42000
Profit = Revenue - Total Cost
= $42000 - $29000
= $13000
Audiocables Inc. with new equipment:
Selling price: $1.40
Variable cost: $0.60
Fixed cost: $14,000 + $6000 = $20000
Sales: 50000 units
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $20000 + ($0.60 × 50000)
= $20000 + $30000
= $50000
Revenue = Sales × Selling price
= 50000 × $1.40
= $70000
Profit = Revenue - Total Cost
= $70000 - $50000
= $20000
From the calculations made, AudioCable buy a new equipment as profit generated is more.

Answer:
1. 1,000 bushels of wheat
2. d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other
Explanation:
1 & 2. Autarky refers to a situation where a country does not engage in trade with other countries but rather relies on its own production capacities to feed the consumption in the country.
Autarkies in the current world are not a thing because countries trade with each other. Even North Korea trades with Russia, China and others.
In an Autarky situation therefore, the United States would only be able to consume the wheat that it produces itself which according to the question is 1,000 bushels of wheat.
