Answer:

Benjamin Fisher

Insider Trading:

1. The purpose of the meeting is for:

Intensive problem solving.

2. The people that should be invited to attend the meeting should be:

5 or fewer

Explanation:

As the CEO, it is Benjamin's responsibility to call for this meeting between himself and his trusted executives.  Therefore, the number of those attending should be limited to 5 or fewer.  The meeting needs to be an intensive one that must iron out a solution for developing a communication strategy for handling the present situation.

The insider trading accusation can seriously damage the firm's reputation and needs to be handled with despatch.

Neko [114]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Ms. Pear invested $12,000 in 1,000 shares of YZ Corporation. After the dividends she received and the stock split, she ended with 2,400 shares. Since she sold 400 shares, it represents 16.67% of her total shares (= 400 / 2,400). To determine the basis for the 400 shares she sold all we need to do is multiply 16.67% x $12,000 (initial investment) = $2,000

ahrayia [7]

Answer: ROE increases by 56.5% to 102.7%

Explanation:

ROE before capital structure change:

= Net income / Equity

= (Operating income * ( 1 - tax)) / Equity

= (6,000,000 * (1 - 23%)) / 10,000,000

= 46.2%

With new capital structure:

Debt financing = 59% * 10,000,000

= $5,900,000

Interest = 9% * 5,900,000

= $531,000

Net income = (Operating profit - interest) * ( 1 - tax)

= (6,000,000 - 531,000) * ( 1 - 23%)

= $‭4,211,130‬

Return on Equity = ‭4,211,130‬ / ( 10,000,000 - 5,900,000)

= 102.7%

Difference:

= 102.7 - 46.2

= 56.5%
