Answer and explanation:

The influence a company may have over another when one of them has a number of shares that belongs to the other is determined by the percentage of ownership that the number of shares represent. If its lower than 20%, it is said the company has <em>no influence</em> over the other. From 20% to 50% one company has <em>significant influence</em> over the other. Finally, with more than 50% of the outstanding shares in possession, one company has <em>control </em>over the other.

In that case, CBS Corp. has no influence over Westwood One, Inc. since it owns only 18% of the outstanding shares.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

B) $90,000

Explanation:

The market value of the unlevered equity can be calculated using the following formula:

Expected value = Σpx

Where:

p = the probability of each outcome =50% in this case for both weak and strong economy.

x = the present value of cash flow for each outcome which is $90,000 in case of weak economy and $117,000 in case of strong economy.

Expected value= 0.50(90,000(1+15%)^-1)+0.50(117,000(1+15%)^-1)

                         =0.50(78,260.87)+0.50(101,739.13)

                         =$90,000

So the answer is B) $90,000

McGregor Company allows customers to pay with credit cards. The credit card company charges McGregor 3% of the sale. When a cust
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

C. Debit Service Fee Expense for $6

Explanation:

McGregor only uses the services of the Credit Card company for their own activities, therefore, aside from the income of the service provided of $200, the credit card company will charge McGregor for the use of credit card services by the customer.

As such, since it is the decision of the customer to pay with a credit card, then the customer must bear the service fee expense of 3% of the cost of the service which is $6. Hence, Option C is correct. It means aside the $200 for the service, there is a need to debit service fee expense for $6

Option D is wrong because only $200 is service revenue, it has to be clearly stated that the 3% of $6 is different from the service revenue and should be debited as service fee.

If the customer is reluctant to make the payment, then there is an allowance to pay cash instead of using the credit card service.
