Answer:

Market price per share = <u>Total market capitalization</u>

                                          No of shares outstanding

                                      = <u>$1.25 billion</u>

                                           $50 million

                                      = $25 per share

Number of shares to issue to repay debts

= <u>Total value of debt</u>

  Market price per share

= <u>$750 million</u>

    $25

= 30 million shares

Explanation:

In this case, we need to calculate the market price per share by dividing the total market capitalization by the number of shares outstanding.

Thereafter, we will derive the number of shares needed to repurchase debt by dividing the value of debt by the market price per share.

Preferred stock valuation uses a constant dividend while common stock can receive dividends based on fixed growth or dividends b
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The statement is true that Preferred stock valuation uses a constant dividend in its valuation while common stock can receive dividends based on fixed growth or dividends based on earnings and not a constant dividend.

The reason is because preferred stock has a guaranteed dividend with a fixed income.  This fixed income can, therefore, be expressed as a fixed percentage, thereby making preferred stock a fixed income investment.

Explanation:

A preferred stock because of its fixed-income is similar to a bond.  A bond earns a fixed percentage of interest.  In the same way, a preferred stock earns a fixed percentage of dividend, though there are many variants under the preferred stock class.  It is also like equity stock in that the stockholders participate in profit distribution but lack voting powers unlike common stockholders.

schepotkina [342]

The current ratio shows the current assets, divided by its current liabilities.

In quick ratio cash equivalents or only highly liquid cash is taken into account explicitly as current assets

Divided by current liabilities, the current ratio represents current assets.

Only highly liquid assets or cash equivalents are taken into account as current assets in the quick ratio.

Current assets

For Year 1 = 9,096 + 2,913 + 6,437 + 2,720 + 1,865 = $ 23,031.00

For Year 2 =  6,134 + 2,592 + 6,651 + 3,143 + 2,143 = $ 20,663.00

Current Liabilities

Year 1 = 4,071 + 13,507 = $ 17,578.00 Year 2 = 5,076 + 13,016

= $ 18,092.00

Current ratio

Year 1 = $ 23,031.00/$ 17,578.00= 1.3 ( to 1 decimal place)

Year 2 = $ 20,663.00/$ 18,092.00

= 1.1

Quick ratio Year 1 = (23,031.00 - 2,720 - 1,865)/ 17,578.00

= 1.0 to 1 decimal place

Year 2 = (20,663.00 - 3,143 - 2,143)

= 0.8
