Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: buffer.

Explanation:

The indirect strategy of providing messages is implemented when <em>bad news</em> must be provided. Details are mentioned first to give the final idea at the end. This strategy might not attract the audience interest at first being this the reason why a <em>buffer </em>must be included. Buffers are meaningful segments that incentivize the audience to pay attention to the message following an initial interesting fact.

Green Thumb Nursery has 53,000 shares outstanding at a market price of $63.57 per share. The earnings per share are $3.57. The f
mamaluj [8]

Answer: $3.70

Explanation:

Earnings per share = Net income / Number of shares

Net income = Earnings per share * Number of shares

= 3.57 * 53,000

= $189,210

The number of shares that Green Thumb bought back is:

= Stock repurchase amount / Market price of shares

= 117,000 / 63.57

= 1,840 shares

After the repurchase the number of shares is:

= 53,000 original shares - 1,840

= 51,160 shares

New EPS = 189,210 / 51,160

= $3.70

Milk producers across Arizona and nationwide currently are facing prices that are so low that many dairies have already gone ban
Lelu [443]

Question Completion:

What is a price floor?

Answer:

A price floor of $2 for milk producers across Arizona and nationwide means that the government does not want the price of milk to fall below $2.  This measure enables dairies to remain in operation.  It favors producers to the detriment of consumers, at least in the short-run.

Explanation:

However, assuming that the market was efficient before the price floor was introduced by the government, the price floor of $2 per gallon for milk could cause a deadweight loss to occur.  In Economics, a deadweight loss reduces economic efficiency.   It implies that consumers pay a higher price for the same quantity of goods they were purchasing before the price floor was introduced. Thus, the reaction of consumers would be to reduce their demand or drop out of the market entirely (instead of producers dropping out of the market through the normal operation of the market forces).
