Answer:

D) Anticompetitive behavior

Explanation:

Venus LLC is using or abusing of its market power to try to force its customers to buy its products in bundles. When a customer is forced to buy a product he/she doesn't want in order to purchase the product they are interested in is called horizontal tying. E.g. you want to buy a TV and you must  also buy a subscription to a cable operator.

In this case, even the companies that manufacture the complementary products are being pressured to carry on this unethical practice. Sometimes horizontal tying can be considered illegal, but not always. It depends on the specific details of each case.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$1.45

Explanation:

First of all we need to know what is earnings available to common shareholders (EACS).

EACS is the part of earnings which is available to common shareholders after deducting preference dividend from net income after taxes.

We can understand the as follows

Net Profit after taxes $ xxxx

Less: Preference dividend (xxxx)

Earnings available to.common shareholders xxxx

From this amount is we divide number of common stocks / shares, we will get Earnings Per Share (EPS)

EPS = Earnings available to equity shareholders / number of common stock shares

Dividend Payout Ration to common stock (given) = 20%

It means the comapny is paying 20% of EPS to common stock holders and 80% of EPS is tthe retained earnings of the company

Hence dividend to common stockholder = Earnings available.to common shareholders × dividend payout ratio

= $7.25 × 20%

= $1.45

$1.45 is the dividend which company pay to common shareholders
