Answer:

40 persons

Explanation:

Given:

Total cost of trip = $560

Number of people Decide not to go = 5 people

raise cost = $2

Assume:

Number of people wants to go = a

Cost per person = b

So, a x b = $560 , b= 560/a

After people decided not to go ,

Total number of people = (a-5)

New cost = (b+2)

So , total cost = (a-5)(b+2) = $560

ab +2a -5b -10 = 560 , where ab = $560

2a -5b = 10

2a -5b = 10

By putthing value of b

2a - 5 (560/a) = 10

2a - (2800 / a) = 10

2a² - 2800 = 10a

2a² -10a - 2800 = 0

a= 40

Total 40 persons wants to go.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer: The options are given below:

A. $292,000

B. $267,250

C. $205,250

D. $275,250

The answer is D. $275,250

Explanation:

Net profit = 425,000 - 338,000 = $87,000

Common Stock =110,000 + 25,000 = $135000

Retained Earnings = 70,000 + 87,000 = $157000

Less: Dividend paid = -$16,750

We will calculate shareholders equity as follows:

Total shareholders' Equity = common stock + retained earnings - dividend paid

=> $135000 + $157000 - $16,750

= $275,250
