Answer:

Fixed costs are those costs that do not vary with the level of production. While, variable cost are those costs that change with the level of production or per unit consumption.

(a) Repairs to a leaking roof- Fixed cost as it has nothing to do with the level of production.

(b) Cotton- Variable cost as it depends on the number of units produced.

(c) Food for the miller's cafeteria- Variable as it depends on production. The more you produce the more workers you need and thus more is the food requirement.

(d) Night security guard-  Fixed cost as it does not change with the number of units produced by the textile mill.

(e) Electricity- Variable cost as it depends on the units of electricity consumed. The more you produce the more electricity will be consumed.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer: $7.50

Explanation:

Given that,

Total value = $950 million

Accounts payable = $100 million

Notes payable = $100 million

Long-term debt = $200 million

common equity = $200 million

shares of common stock = 100 million

Value of equity = Value of firm - Value of preferred stock - Value of long term debt.

                         = $950 million - 0 - $200 million

                         = $750 million

Value\ of\ stock = \frac{Value\ of\ equity}{Number\ of\ shares}

Value\ of\ stock = \frac{750}{100}

                                 = $7.50
