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.

Alma owns fifty shares of common stock in Alpha Corporation. Alma also owns eighty shares of preferred stock in the same corpora
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Given the situation described above, Alma will be able to cast <u>50 votes</u>.

This is because common stock gives voting rights to shareholders. And given that Alma has 50 shares of common stocks. Therefore, he would be able to cast 50 votes.

On the other hand, preferred stocks give no voting rights to shareholders.

However, preferred shareholders have preference over a company's revenue or earnings, which implies that they are paid dividends before common shareholders.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is "50 votes."

Statement of cash flows
likoan [24]

Answer:

a.

Palmetto Statement of Cashflows      

<u>For the Year Ended December 31, 2013 </u>    

   

Cashflow from Operating Activities    

Net Cashflow from Operaing Activities     $15,600

   

Cashflow from Investing Activities    

Net Cashflow from Investing Activities     ($23,000)

   

Cashflow from Financing Activities    

Net Cashflow from Financing Activities     ($4,500)

   

Net Increase (Decrease)    <u>($11,900)</u>

   

Add: Beginning of Period Cash balance    $32,000

   

Ending Cash Balance    <u>$20,100</u>

b. Operating Cash flow relates to the normal business operations of the business. A Net Cash Inflow from this therefore means that the business made a profit from its normal operations of selling fast food during 2013.

c. Investing Activities relate to transaction involving Fixed Assets as well as the stocks and bonds of other companies. The Net Cash flow was probably caused by Palmetto buying more Fixed Assets than they disposed of in the year 2013.

d. Financing activities relate to how the business is financed in terms of Equity and debt. The payments of Dividends therefore fall under here as they relate to Equity. A net cash outflow here therefore probably means that Palmetto paid out dividends to shareholders. They might have also repaid some loans but judging by how small the outflow is, the loans were either small or it was only dividends that were paid out.

In a market economy, a high price will usually cause
Talja [164]

Answer:

C) producers to supply more and consumers to buy less.

Explanation:

The typical supply curve is upward-sloping (higher price leads to higer quantity supplied) and the typical demand curve is downward sloping (higher price lower quantity demanded).

Price is a measure of how much one good can be exchanged for other things. Production incurred cost (tend to rise as more resources become harder to obtain) so to supply more suppliers will demand higher price. Purchasing higher price good means consumers have less money (less of other goods can be bought) consumer will buy less good at higher price.
