Allocation       Preferred Stock                  Common Stock

of Dividends  

$87,500        $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%)     $70,400 ($87,500 - 17,100)

b) The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating:

Allocation       Preferred Stock                     Common Stock

of Dividends

of Dividends  

$87,500           $48,944                                 $38,556

Amount due      $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%)

Participation     $31,844 = $31,844/$87,500 * 100 = 36.4%

Participation = $87,500 - ($17,100 + $38,556) = $31,844

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Outstanding capital stock:

9% Preferred stock = 1,900 shares of $100 par value ($190,000)

Common stock = 5,400 shares of $50 par value ($270,000)

Assuming retained earnings = $87,500 to be paid out in dividends.

No preference stock dividends were paid out during the last 2 years.

1) The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating:

Allocation       Preferred Stock                  Common Stock

2) The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating:

Allocation       Preferred Stock                     Common Stock

of Dividends  

$87,500        $51,300 ($190,000 * 9%)*3    $36,200 ($87,500 - 51,300)

3) The preferred stock is cumulative and participating

Allocation       Preferred Stock                  Common Stock

of Dividends  

$87,500        $48,944                                 $38,556

Amount due  $17,100 ($190,000 * 9%)

Participation $31,844 = $31,844/$87,500 * 100 = 36.4%

Participation = $87,500 - ($17,100 + $38,556) = $31,844

The 2021 income statement for Anderson TV and Appliance reported net sales of $260,000 and net income of $75,000. Average total
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

profit maring: 28.84%

ROA 15%

ROE 17.75%

Explanation:

profit margin:

\frac{income}{sales}

75,000 / 260,00 = 0,28846 = 28.84%

return on assets ROA

\frac{income}{assets}

75,000 / 500,000 = 0.15

return on equity: ROE

\frac{income}{equity}

average equity:

ending= beginning + income - dividends

400,000 + 75,000 - 30,000 = 445,000

(400,000 + 445,000) / 2  = 422,500

75,000 / 422,500 = 0,17751 = 17.75%

You have been chosen to be a teaching assistant at your school. A student comes to you with questions about storage devices.
dem82 [27]

<u>Explanation:</u>

A computing hardware utilized to indefinitely or temporarily store data, this device may be outer or inner to a computer, server, and other computing systems, hence common as a storage device. The memory is generally read-write random-access memory provided by semiconductors, typically Dynamic RAM or other types of fast yet temporary storage in the contemporary usage. While storage comprises of storage devices and their media that are not directly available via the processor (secondary or tertiary storage), usually hard disk drives, optical disk drives, and other devices that are slower than RAM but non-volatile.

grin007 [14]

Answer:

$255,000

Explanation:

Given that,

2016:

Taxable and pretax financial income = $850,000

Tax rate = 30%

2017:

Taxable and pretax financial income = $850,000

Tax rate = 35%

Income tax refund receivable in 2018:

= Taxable and pretax financial loss in 2018 × Tax rate in the year 2016

= $850,000 × 30 percent

= $255,000

Note:

(i) The carry back provision allows losses to be carried back to preceding 2 years, with the amount of net loss being applied to earliest year first.

(ii) 2018 net loss should be applied to income of 2016 first.
