1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. $1,028 million

b. 46.7%

Explanation:

a. Dividends are taken from the retained earnings and net income is added to the retained earnings. The formula for ending retained earnings is;

Ending retained earnings = Opening Retained earnings + Net Income - Dividends

14,329 = 13,157 + 2,200 - Dividends

Dividends = 13,157 + 2,200 - 14,329

Dividends = $1,028 million

b. Dividends as a percentage of income

= 1,028/2,200

= 0.467

= 46.7%

oee [108]

Answer: Integrated Communications Unit

Explanation:  The Integrated Communications Unit is one of the NIMS characteristics that  allows units from diverse agencies to connect, share information and achieve situational awareness.

2. Planning for the use of all available communications frequencies and resources.

3.The procedures and processes for transferring information internally and  externally.
