The correct answer to 1 is the ability to easily raise financial capital.
A sole proprietor is limited to the cash that they personally have, so this is a disadvantage when they need additional capital for the business.
The correct answer to 2 is that their personal property can be used to pay debts.
A partnership is personally responsible for the debts of the company. If the company owes money and cannot pay it, the partners that own the business are personally responsible.
The correct answer to 3 is the shareholders.
The shareholders are the owners of the corporation. They vote for a board of directors who in turn oversee the operation of the corporation.
Answer:
3. Supply of flour to increase.
Explanation:
The situation above is showing a<em> direct proportional relationship</em> between the "wheat," as a main ingredient of flour, and the flour itself.
If the price of wheat <em>decreases</em>, <u>suppliers will be interested in buying more of it in order to produce more quantities of flour at a </u><em><u>lower cost </u></em>because it will more likely lead to a<em><u> higher profit</u></em>. This will, therefore, increase the supply of flour in the market.
Answer:
Cost of equity = 10.7%
Explanation:
<em>We will work out the required rate of return using the the dividend valuation model. The model states that the value of a stock is the present value of the future divided discounted at the cost of equity.
</em>
The model is given below:
P = D× (1+g)/(r-g)
P- price of stock, D- dividend payable now, g- growth rate in dividend, r- cost of equity
So we substitute
130 = 5.50× (1+r)/(r-0.06)
cross multiplying
(r-0.06)× 130 = 5.50 × (1+r)
130 r- 7.8 = 5.50 + 5.50r
collecting like terms
130 r - 5.50r=5.50 + 7.8
124.5 r= 13.3
Divide both sides by 124.5
r =13.3 /124.5= 0.1068
r=0.1068 × 100= 10.7%
Cost of equity = 10.7%
The answer to this would be the 4th option. Because monopolies allow businesses to compete against each other for profit and reputation. Without monopolies, people would only choose one company over the other because it just is more superior. Monopolies is what make businesses grow, and unfortunately, they aren't a good thing at times.
