Answer:

Check Explanation.

Explanation:

The following parameters are given for dividends of three years;

Year 1 = $497,000, Year 2 = $490,000 Year 3 = $524,000.

The number of shares= 48,000 of 7%, preferred stock = $100 par and 92,000 shares of $50 par common stock issued and outstanding.

Therefore,

Year one:

=> Amount Distributed = $497,000.

=> Preferred dividend = 48,000 × 7% × $100 = 336,000.

=> Common dividend = 497,000 - 336,000 = 161,000.

=> Preferred divided per share = 336,000/ 48,000 = $ 7.

=> Common dividend = Common dividend/ 92,000 shares = 161,000/ 92,000 shares =$ 1.75.

Year Two:

=> Amount Distributed = $490,000.

=> Preferred dividend = 48,000 × 7% × $100 = 336,000.

=> Common dividend = 490,000 - 336,000 = 113,000.

=> Preferred divided per share = 336,000/ 48,000 = $ 7.

=> Common dividend = Common dividend/ 92,000 shares = 113,000/ 92,000 shares =$1.23.

Year Three:

=> Amount Distributed = $524,000.

=> Preferred dividend = 48,000 × 7% × $100 = 336,000.

=> Common dividend = $524,000 - 336,000 = 188,000.

=> Preferred divided per share = 336,000/ 48,000 = $7.

=> Common dividend = Common dividend/ 92,000 shares = 188,000/ 92,000 shares =$2.04

Are the following statements true or false? The difference between savings and investments is that savings is money set aside fo
grigory [225]

Answer:

That statement is true.

Explanation:

Basically, You put your money in saving if you intended to use that money for future consumption. You put your money in investment if you intended to make financial gain out of it.

For example,

Let's say that you want to buy a laptop that cost $700. You only able to spend $350 per month since you have to consider other more important payment such as rent or food. So you set aside $350 for two month and purchase the laptop at the end of the second month. This is an example of saving.

In another case let's say that you put that $350 in Bonds rather than purchasing laptop. You Let that bond mature and take a 3% interest as profit. Two month later, the value of your money is increased. This is an example of an investment.

Assume that you are a high-level manager for a shoe manufacturer. You know that your firm could increase its profit margin by pr
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The issue here is that you need to balance your company's profits and possible negative due to bad press.

On one side (the good and righteous side), if you do not produce shoes in Asia, your long term survival economic is doubtful, but people view your company as a company that does the right thing no matter what. Will it increase sales? Theoretically it should, but in practice it doesn't. Are Nike sales hurt because each shoe is produced in an Asian country that pays $0.25 per day? No, they aren't. The same applies to Reebok, Adidas, Puma, New Balance and every single major shoe manufacturer in the world. Bad press hurt tuna back in the 80's, but some companies are not affected by it.

The alternative (the evil, dark side of the force side) results in your company being able to survive on the long term. It will not necessarily mean that your company will grow and become the world's largest shoe manufacturer, but you will be able to survive and continue to operate.

There is also a trick that you can use to avoid reputational damage and bad press, and that is to establish a foreign subsidiary in Indonesia using a different name. Then your foreign subsidiary sells you the manufactured goods, and the blame fall son the subsidiary. Believe it or not, that simple solution is used by most corporations including clothing manufacturers, electronics, toys, etc.

If you analyze this from an ethical point of view, the alternative is much simpler. Producing in Indonesia (or India, or Burma, or Pakistan, or Vietnam, etc.) and paying a $100 salary will allow a family to live a very decent life and probably even prosper. They will have a much better lifestyle than the rest of their neighborhood. Each Indonesian worker represents one less poor family in Indonesia. On the other hand, American families will probably get hurt, but it is also much easier for an American worker to get another job that pays a normal wage (in US standards) and allows them to live well.

In a large city, two taxi companies own all the licenses that the city will grant to operate taxis. consumers don't care which c
liberstina [14]

Answer:

this situation can be classified as an duopoly

Explanation:

An duopoly is similar to a monopoly but instead of only supplier there are two suppliers that share total market power and control. Both companies also offer basically the same product or service. Competition exists between the companies but it is not significant, both companies decide to coexist. Customers are forced to choose between one company or the other.

In this case, there are only two taxi companies and the customers really don't care what company they use since they both offer similar services. None of the companies even bothers to offer a better service to try to gain a larger market share.
