Answer:
One company pays 100%, the other re-reimburses 50%
Explanation:
If an environmental assessment found that the two companies share joint and several liability for a hazardous materials cleanup.
What could happen if the two of them don't agree to cooperate in the cleanup is that one of the companies will eventually settle the costs fully while the other party will have to reimburse the party that pays, 50%.
The paying company could make claims because the environmental impact assessment has already found both companies jointly liable. hence each company ought to jointly share the costs
From what I understand here, it is the company that will be creating the 5000 monthly income. This is an example of a specific measurable goal since the goal of Robert is to make sure that the monthly net income of his company would reach at least 5000. Since he is the boss of his company, this is also probably his personal mission for his company so that he will be motivated to keep on bringing his company to better heights. This will also probably motivate his employees to work harder as well.
Answer: 2.74 years
Explanation:
Payback Period is a method of capital budgeting that works by checking how long the project will take to repay the investment outlay.
The formula is;
Payback Period = Year before Payback Period occurs + 
Initial Outlay = $4,650
First Year = $1,350
Second Year = $2,450
Third Year = $1,150
First year + second year = 1,350 + 2,450 = $3,800
Remaining till repayment = 4,650 - 3,800 = $850
Third year amount of $1,150 is higher than $850 so amount will be repaid in 3rd year.
Payback Period = Year before Payback Period occurs + 
Payback Period = 2 + 
Payback Period = 2.74 years
Answer:
The cost of preferred stock is 10.2%
Explanation:
The actual amount realized from issuing the preferred of $100 per share par value is the par value less cost of issuing and selling stock of $2 per share, in other words,$98($100-$2) was realized per share from the issuance.
Having known the net amount realized, the cost of preferred stock can be calculated as follows:
cost of preferred stock =return on preferred stock/net amount realized
return is 10% of $100(par value), i.e $10 per share
cost of preferred stock =$10/$98=10.2%
Note that preferred is not tax deductible like debt financing , hence the rate of tax given is not considered in determining the cost of preferred stock.
