Answer:
$5.50 dividend per share to common stock
Explanation:
In case a company has cumulative preference shares then the company has to pay preference dividend in arrears
Here, preference dividend was not paid in the year 2017
Preference dividend for 2017 = 500
$100
4%
= $2,000
Since the dividend is paid in between the year 2018, dividend is paid for the year 2017 and not for 2018 thus preference dividend is for a year, only for 2017
Therefore, dividend to common equity = $35,000 - $2,000 = $33,000
Dividend per share = $33,000/6,000 = $5.50 per share
Economic profit is calculated as:
Economic profit = Total Revenues – Total Cost
Total cost both includes explicit and implicit cost. In
this case, the explicit cost is $8,000 while the implicit cost is $64,000.
Explicit cost is a direct payment made to run the business while implicit cost
is the opportunity as accountant that is lost. Therefore,
Economic profit = $150,000 – ($8,000 + $64,000)
<span>Economic profit = $78,000</span>

Answer:
335.43 million gallons
Explanation:
price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price
PED = -1.9% / 10% = -0.19, very inelastic
expected price increase $0.40
% change in price = ($3.45 - $3.05) / $3.05 = 13.11%
% change in quantity demanded:
-0.19 = D / 13.11%
D = 2.49%
quantity demanded will decrease by 2.49%, from 344 million gallons to 335.43 million gallons
