KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The basic EPS is $1.85 and diluted EPS is $1.77 per share

Explanation:

In order to calculate the basic EPS we would have to use the following formula:

basic EPS= Net income-Dividens/weighted average number of shares

basic EPS= $900,000-(40,000 shares*10%*8%)/(400,000*1.1)+(36,000*10/12*1.1)-(9,000*4/12)

basic EPS= $900,000-$32,000/440,000+33,000-$3,000

=$868,000/470,000

basic EPS=$1.85

In order to calculate the diluted EPS we would have to use the following formula:

diluted EPS= Net income-preference Dividend + stock dividend-tax on stock dividend/weighted average number of shares

diluted EPS=$900,000-($400,000*8%)+($100,000*10%)-($100,000*25%)/(400,000*1.1)+(36,000*10/12*1.1)-(9,000*4/12)+(30,000-(30,000*18/20)+50,000

dilutedEPS=$900,000-$32,000+$100,000+25,000/440,000+33,000-$3,000+(30,000-27,000)+50,000

diluted EPS=$928,000/523,000

diluted EPS=$1.77 per share

Cathy's Towels sells three items (which it purchases from a supplier): bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths in a 4:3:2 mix (
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

36,000 baths

Explanation:

The computation of the bath towels that must the firm would sell at the break even point is shown below:

But before that the contribution margin per unit is

<u>Particulars        Bath towels   Hand towels  Wash towels</u>

Selling price      $10                  $5                  $2.5

Less: variable cost $4              $2                  $1

Contribution margin $6           $3                  $1.50

No of items in batch  4             3                    2

Contribution margin per unit $24   $9        $3

Now the number of baths would be

= $324,000 ÷ ($24 + $9 + $3) × 4

= 36,000 baths

You are the CEO of a company that has to choose between making a $100 million investment in Russia or Poland. Both investments p
dlinn [17]

Answer:

Going by the Ease of Doing Business ranking of 2020, prepared by the World Bank, which is perhaps the most reliable ranking to assess business risk in different countries.

Russia has a higher score in the ranking, which means that doing business is less risky there. Poland has particularly high risks in the starting a business category, which means that the mere act of starting the business in Poland might be a risky decision.

Russia has a high risk in trading accross borders, probably because the country is subject to several international sanctions.

If we go only by score, Russia has a higher score, so, as the CEO, you should probably invest there. However, you should avoid investing in Russian companies that try to export abroad, because of the high risks associated with trade in that country.

vazorg [7]

Answer:

Assets increase by $10,000

Total stockholders' equity increases by $10,000

Explanation:

Since in the question, it is given that, the purchase value of equipment is $100,000 and the exchanged value is $110,000

So, the difference of $10,000 ($110,000 - $100,000) would reflect that the assets would increase by $10,000 and the total stockholders' equity is also increased by $10,000

The exchange value is a combination of $70,000 in trade allowance and $40,000 was paid in cash
