Answer:

for year 1

common stock =  $1.75 per share

preferred stock  = Zero

for year 2

common stock =  $4.25 per share

preferred stock  = $0.3 per share

for year 3

common stock =   $3 per share

preferred stock  =  $2 per share

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

preferred stock value =  (40000 shares * $150) = $6000000

common stock value  = (100000 shares * $5) = $500000

 step 2

For year 1:

Dividend on preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100} = $120000

But total dividend in the question was $70000 therefore total amount of  dividend on cumulative preferred stock is $70000.

hence, dividend per share

= \frac{70000}{40000 shares} = $1.75 per share

Dividend on common stock;

70,000 - 70,000 = Zero

as total dividend distributed in year 1 is insufficient for cumulative preferred stock therefore no dividend will be paid on common stock.

For year 2:

Dividend on cumulative preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100}= $120000

extra dividend of year 1 ($120000 - $70000) = $50000

Thus total dividend on cumulative preferred stock

($120000 + $50000) = $170000

So dividend per share

\frac{170000}{40000\ shares}= $4.25 per share

Dividend on common stock;

($200000 – $170000) = $30000

dividend per share

\frac{30000}{100000\ shares} = $0.3 per share

For year 3:

Dividend on cumulative preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100} = $120000

total dividend on cumulative preferred stock $120000

dividend per share

\frac{120000}{40000 shares} = $3 per share

No dividend was extra in the year 2 therefore only available dividend of this year will be paid.

Dividend on common stock;

($320000 – $120000) = $200000

dividend per share

\frac{200000}{100000\ shares}= $2 per share

Find a formula for the described function. An open rectangular box with volume 3 m3 has a square base. Express the surface area
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

SA(x) = x^2 + \frac{12}{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = 3m^3 --- volume

x \to base\ length

y \to height

Required

The surface area as a function of base length

The volume (V) is calculated as:

V = Base\ Area * Height

V = x*x*y

V = x^2*y

Make y the subject

y = \frac{V}{x^2}

Substitute 3 for V

y = \frac{3}{x^2}

The surface area of the open box is:

SA = x^2 + 2xy+2xy

SA = x^2 + 4xy

Substitute: y = \frac{3}{x^2}

SA = x^2 + 4x*\frac{3}{x^2}

SA = x^2 + 4*\frac{3}{x}

SA = x^2 + \frac{12}{x}

Hence, the function is:

SA(x) = x^2 + \frac{12}{x}

PLEASE HURRY!!!! TIMED!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

\sqrt{28}

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't need to memorize all of the square roots.  Looking at each square root, find a number close to it that you know -- The square root of five is close to the square root of four, which is 2. The square root of 28 is close to the square root of 25, which is 5.  28 is a slightly bigger than 25, so the square root will be slightly greater than 5.

Travka [436]

Answer:

0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;

Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :

HA : p>0.5

In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.

To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.

Recall ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.

Given: -2x &lt; 10. Choose the solution set.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

given - 2x < 10 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

Remembering that the symbol is reversed when multiplying/ dividing by a negative quantity.

x > - 5 ← note reversal of symbol

solution is {x | x > - 5 } → C
