Answer: E) price-earnings ratio will be 14.26 ex-dividend.

Explanation:

Stock prices generally decrease in price by the price of the dividend on ex-dividend date.

This means that this stock will reduce to:

= 31.17 - 1.09

= $30.08

Price to Earnings ratio = Stock price/ Earnings per share

= 30.08/2.11

= $14.26

<em>Option E is correct. </em>

siniylev [52]
The owners of the business should be able to register the company under sole-propietorship. In this type of ownership, the owners have the money and the money is considered theirs on the personal level. Thus, this makes them liable to single level of taxes.

Suppose you just won the state lottery, and you have a choice between receiving $3,500,000 today or a 20-year annuity of $250,00
xeze [42]

Answer: The correct answer is e). 3.67%

Explanation: An ordinary annuity is a series of payments made at the end of each period.

The formula for ordinary annuity is PV = PMT × ((1 - (1 + r) ^ -n)/ r)

Where; PMT = the periodic cash payment; r = the interest rate per period; n = the total number of periods and PV = present value.

Therefore; 3500000 = 250000×((1-(1+r)^-20)/r

This will give the rate as 3.67%

Accounts receivable in an existing business:
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": are rarely worth their face value.

Explanation:

Accounts receivables are notes issued to customers after selling them a product or rendering services on credit. The repayment term may vary from 30, 60 or 90 days. If an account receivable is not paid after that period it could be considered as an uncollectible account which implies the company will incur losses.

<em>Accounts receivable are hardly ever accepted at face value (real value of the moment of the purchase) because companies add the interest rate that is to be charged for the sale on the account.</em>
