Answer:

False

Retained earnings can be defined as the amount of money or income left after a firm or organization as paid out it dividends to their shareholders.

Retained earnings are also an organisation's profit which they retained or keep and this earning is reinvested for other purposes. Such purposes include: Future expansion of the the organization. Retained earnings are a form of liability to a firm.

Funds acquired by the firm through retained earnings (similar to their free cash flow), have cost attached to them.

What was a part of the emerging social, political, and economic philosophies that characterized the first hundred days of Frankl
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

"Try something and if it doesn't work, admit it and try something else."

Explanation:

When I took US Government, my teacher always emphasized that FDR was probably the best American President, and things like this really show why he admired him so much. Can you imagine those words coming out of the mouth of a modern politician?

Many people like to compare President Obama's first term with FDR's first term, but I believe that Obama had it easier. Not because the recession wasn't bad, but because it was fresh and new. President Bush's handling of the crisis was disastrous, but they messed up only for about one year. When FDR took office, the depression had been around for several years, so the negative effects were much greater.

When FDR took office the country was ravaged and nobody was sure that the new policies would work or not, or even what policies they should have implemented. That is why they engaged in a trial and error type of strategy where several options were explored to try to see what could work and what couldn't.

A student has a savings account earning 9% simple interest. She must pay $1400 for first-semester tuition by September 1 and $14
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: The answer is $2,759.22

Explanation: From the question above, we have:

September 1st to January 1st is 4 months, this is 1/3 of a year which means that the student will earn:

=> 9/3 = 3%

3% interest for the money that is saved is the savings account. So the student must put in at least:

x + 3%x = 1400

x + 0.03x = 1400

1.03x = 1400

x = 1400 / 1.03

x = 1,359.22

Therefore, if the student saves $1,359.22 in the savings account By September 1st, she will have $1400 by January 1st.

Also, the student needs to make $1400 for the first semester. So overall she will need to make:

1,400 + 1,359.22 = $2,759.22 during the summer in order to ensure that she will have enough money to pay for both semesters.

zimovet [89]

12.75 %

Cost of Capital is calculated on a Weighted Average basis. This is because there is a Pooling of Funds when it comes to financing projects. So Cost of Capital is the Return that is Required by providers of Long Term source of finance.

Ke = Cost of Equity

    = 15%

D/E = Market Weight of Debt

      = 0.45

Kd = Cost of Debt

     = 10%

Therefore,

Cost of Capital = 0.55 × 15% +  0.45 × 10%

                         = 12.75 %
