Answer:
EPS = $4.50
diluted EPS = $2.46
Explanation:
no option is correct since EPS = $4.50, and the rest of the options are all higher amounts. Diluted EPS are always smaller than EPS.
common stock outstanding = 1,000 stocks
bonds shares (diluted) = 1,000 stocks
net income = $4,500
bond interest = $10,000 x 6% x (1 - 30%) = $420
diluted earnings per share = ($4,500 + $420) / (1,000 shares + 1,000 shares) = $4,920 / 2,000 shares = $2.46
Telemarketing is highly effective even though most people will respond rudely or just hang up. But in the hundreds of calls a call rep. makes a day there will always be a few that get hooked on the spiel. I don't think anything can be done to improve the image other than not call during evening hours when it is most disruptive.
No, it would cost $210.
Each hour charges $40. 4 hours alone is $160.
On top of that, calling the electrician is a flat rate of $50. In total, it would cost $210.
More mathematically, you could set up an equation.
(Price) = $50 + $40 * (hours)
Then plug in 4 hours
price = 50 + 40*4
= 50+160
= 210

If you find yourself in a situation that you think might be escalation, you should avoid letting people know their issue is not part of your job. When telling people their concerns are not part of your job, it makes the chance of escalation rise.
You could try using options A, B and D in order to keep the involved people as content as possible.
