Answer:

In 2021, preferred stockholders will be paid $9000 dividends while common stockholders will be paid $1000 in dividends.

Explanation:

The preferred share are cumulative which means that they accrue dividends in case the company is unable to pay dividend in a certain year. This means that the company needs to pay the preferred dividend in future whenever it declares dividends if it has not paid the dividend on preferred share in the previous years.

The preferred dividends are paid prior to the common stockholders.

Thus, the dividend for 2019 and 2020 will be paid along with that of 2021 when the company pays dividends in 2021.

The preferred dividend per year is = 50 * 0.06 * 1000 = $3000

The accrued preferred dividends for 2019 and 2020 are = 3000 * 2 = 6000

Preferred dividend to be paid in 2021 = 6000 + 3000 = $9000

Common stock dividends to be paid in 2021 = 10000 - 9000 = $1000

When firms exit a market, the _________, causing individual firms’ profits to _________.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

<em>When firms exit a market, the short-run market supply curve shifts left, causing individual firms’ profits to increase.</em>

Explanation:

The process of <em>free entry and exit of firms</em> is in a sequence as explained under-

  1. If there is higher demand in the market of the product as compared to its supply, then each firm in the market will receive higher price for its product.
  2. This will increase the prices of the product, enabling higher profits for each firm. This will make the industry attractive, enabling the introduction of newer firms in the market.
  3. When the new firms enter the industry, the prices of the product in the market will drop due to higher competition, now present currently. This will lead to lowering of profits for the firms in the industry.
  4. This will make the industry non-attractive and thereby the less competitive and less effective firms will exit the market in the short run.
  5. This exit of firms from the industry, will lead to higher prices again due to less supply of product in the market as compared to its demand. Hence, the profits of the firms present in the industry will increase.

Thus, it can be concluded that <em>when firms exit a market, the short-run market supply curve shifts left, causing individual firms’ profits to increase.</em>

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

C. current period costs less cost of beginning work-in-process inventory

Explanation:

While calculating the current period manufacturing under FIFO method the cost of beginning work in process will be deducted as was incurred in previous period, for the current period only the current period cost will be considered.

On May 1 Ralph offers to cure and smoke Sam’s pork, and promises to keep the offer open until June 1. On May 3 Ralph mails Sam a
garik1379 [7]

Explanation:

I would say may 6th because Sam didn't know Ralph was going to revoke until May 5th and that only makes it half final because Ralph wouldn't know in anyway except through a letter that Sam has received his letter and agreed or disagreed.

May 6th is when he gets the confirmation. So both people know on May 6th.

If this is too confusing ( like it was for me I had to read it 6 times ) then think about it this way. if you make a deal with a fisherman to buy fish on Wednesday and you send him a lettering sunday that arrives a day later, the fisherman won't know until a day later (Monday) and on that day he receives it you don't know if he got it. That's why it's half official. when he send a letter that arrives the day after he got your letter (tuesday) then you know that he understood you won't make it on Wednesday making it fully official.

does this make sense? if so hope it helps.
