Both Phoebe and Connor are trying to maximize their lifetime income. Each has a different plan on how to do it best. Phoebe clai

ms that she wants a career with no college or trade school requirements because she could save the money for retirement rather than spending it on education. She estimates her average yearly salary at $35,000 a year with no post-secondary education requirements. Connor claims post-secondary education will help him get a career with a higher salary and more benefits he can use in retirement so the education costs will more than pay for themselves. Connor estimates his average yearly salary at $60,000 after earning a college degree.
Which statement about their claims is correct?



A. Phoebe is correct because a college education is overly expensive and is almost a waste of money.

B. Phoebe is correct because she might save $60,000 for not attending college and $140,000 by earning money while others are in college. The college graduates would never be able to make up that difference in earnings.
C. Connor is correct because he is likely to earn a higher salary throughout his career. By earning by only $11,000 more in salary, he could make up the difference over the life of his career. He is also likely to have more employee benefits to save for his retirement.
D.Connor is correct because a person without a college degree will never be able to support himself.

The correct answer is C. By attending college, Connor actually stands better prospects to earn a significant salary throughout his lifetime. Employees having gone through post-secondary education generally earn more income than those who have not studied till college. The simple reason is, by attending college, you acquire sharper knowledge and insights of disciplines you wouldn't otherwise have access to. You get skills that are in line with a demanding and fast-paced environment. People often regret not attending college because they could have grabbed a certificate that could have been a stepping stone for professional opportunities and higher incomes.

price discrimination will occur when a firm can segment its existing and potential customers into different groups based on:
lana [24]

Customers whose demand has a higher degree of price elasticity will pay less.

<h3>How Does Price Discrimination Occur and types of Price Discrimination?</h3>

Price discrimination is a marketing tactic where sellers charge clients various prices for the same good or service depending on what they believe will win the customer over. A merchant that practices pure price discrimination will impose the highest price possible on each customer. The more typical types of price discrimination involve the vendor classifying clients into groups according to particular characteristics and charging each group a different price.

There are three types of price discrimination:

First-Degree Price Discrimination:  when a company charges the highest price per unit of consumption.

Second-Degree Price Discrimination: when a business offers discounts for large orders or imposes various prices on customers depending on how much they eat.

Third-Degree Price Discrimination: when a business charges varied prices to various customer segments.

Credit Common Stock with $40,000

Credit Additional Paid-in Capital with $20,000

Debit Treasury Stock with $8,000

Debit Additional Paid-in Capital with $6,000

Credit Cash Account with $14,000

To record the repurchase of 2,000 shares of treasury stock at $7 each.

December 31:

Credit Cash Account with $249,000

To record payment of dividend.

Debit Net Income with $550,000

Credit Retained Earnings with $550,000

To record the transfer of net income to Retained Earnings.

Explanation:

a) Whereas $60,000 cash was received for the issue, only $40,000 (10,000 x $4) is credited to Common Stock.  The additional of $20,000 is credited to Additional Paid-in Capital.  This shows that the shares were issued above their par value.

b) When 2,000 shares of treasury stock were reacquired at a total cost of $7 per share, the Treasury Stock account is debited with the par value of $4 per share ($8,000).  The above par value difference is taken to the Additional Paid-in Capital account as a debit.

c) Dividends on preferred stock was prorated for 10 months, from January to October.  This is because the percentage dividend is for a year.

d) Dividends on common stock would not be prorated since they are based on annual percentages like preferred stock.  Dividends on the common stock is, therefore, calculable on the outstanding balance.  

e) Treasury Stock is a contra account to the Common Stock as it reduces the balance of common stock outstanding.  The outstanding balance of Treasury Stock increased to 12,000 (10,000 + 2,000).

f) Outstanding common stock reduced from 500,000 shares to 498,000 (500,000 + 10,000 - 12,000).  The additional 10,000 represented the new issue and the 12,000 represented the Treasury Stock.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

<u>sell the stock which will drive it's expected return even lower.</u>

An investor wants to be compensated for the risk undertaken in the form of return. When investors believe that a stock is not providing sufficient return, such stocks would be sold by the investor.

When a stock is not performing well i.e it's current market price goes down, all the investors holding that stock will sell it , leading to it's market price going further down.

Since the market price goes further down, the expected return on such a stock would further decline.
