Answer:

6 pounds of dried apples and 14 pounds of dried apricots

Explanation:

A = dried apples

B = dried apricots

1.3A + 1.6B = 1.51 x 20 = 30.2

A + B = 20

A = 20 - B

Replace A:

1.3(20 - B) + 1.6B = 30.2

26 - 1.3B + 1.6B = 30.2

0.3B = 30.2 - 26 = 4.2

B = 4.2 / 0.3 = 14

A = 6

Sweet Company’s outstanding stock consists of 1,000 shares of noncumulative 5% preferred stock with a $100 par value and 10,000
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Preferred dividend per year:

= (Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock ) × 5% preferred stock

= (1,000 × $100) × 5%

= ($100,000) × 5%

= $5,000

Any balance left over would be paid to common stockholders.

Year 1:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $2,000

Paid to common stockholders = 0

Year 2:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($6,000 - $5,000)

                                                  = $1,000

Year 3:

Paid to preferred stockholders = $5,000

Paid to common stockholders = ($32,000 - $5,000)

                                                  = $27,000

Therefore,

Total amount of dividends paid to preferred Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $2,000 + $5,000 + $5,000

= $12,000

Total amount of dividends paid to common Shareholders:

= Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3

= $0 + $1,000 + $27,000

= $28,000

Alex

Answer:$81

Explanation:

The options given are:

a. $76

b. $80

c. $81

d. $82

If the principal market that is, the market that the greatest volume of activity can't be identified, then the most advantageous market would be used to determine the fair value of a financial asset.

The most advantageous market is the market that has the highest net price, after transaction cost has been considered even though the transaction costs is not included into the fair value. Therefore, the second market gives the highest net price of $80 after the consideration of the transaction costs, hence, it should be utilized for fair value purposes.

The fair value amount include the transaction costs, which give $80 + $1 = $81

The fair value amount is $81.

<em>Net income 34,420.8</em>

0.7 x 4,260 = 2982

and distribute the fixed cost among the normal capacity

14,400 / 7,500 = 1.92 fixed cost per garment cleaned

.7 + 1.92 = 2.62 cost per garment

We do not include the fixed cost in the unit cost, we subtact them completely as an expense.
