Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

The required proceeds:

= Amount need to be finance ÷ (1 - 7%)

= $20 million ÷ (1 - 0.07)

= $215,05,376.34 (approx)

Hence, the number of shares needed to be issued:

= required proceeds ÷ Issue price per share

= $215,05,376.34 ÷ $50 per share

= 430,108 shares (approx)

Therefore, 430,108 shares they need to issue to cover the cost of the project plus all floatation costs.

IrinaVladis [17]

Complete question:

Consider the game of chicken. Two players drive their cars down the center of the road directly at each other. Each player chooses SWERVE or STAY. Staying wins you the admiration of your peers (a big payoff) only if the other player swerves. Swerving loses face if the other player stays. However, clearly, the worst output is for both players to stay! Specifically, consider the following payouts. Player two Stay swervePlayer one stay -6 -6 2 -2 swerve -2 2 1 1

a) Does either player have a dominant strategy?

b) Suppose that Player B has adopted the strategy of Staying 1/5 of the time and  swerving 4/5 of the time. Show that Player A is indifferent between swerving and staying.

c) If both player A and Player B use this probability mix, what is the chance that  they crash?

Explanation:

a. There is no dominant strategy for either player. Suppose two players agree to live. Then the best answer for the player is to swerve(-6 versus -2).  Yet if the player turns two, the player will remain one (2 vs 1).  

b. Player B must be shown to be indifferent among swerving and staying if it implements a policy (stay= 1⁄4, swerving= 5/4).

When we quantify a predicted award on the stay / swerving of Player A, we get

E(stay)= (1/5)(-6)+ (4/5)(2)= 2/5 E(swerve)= (1/5)(-2)  

c. They both remain 1/5 of the time. The risk of a crash (rest, stay) is therefore (1/5)(1/5)= 1/25= 4%

Duncan Company reports the following financial information before adjustments. Dr. Cr. Accounts Receivable $100,000 Allowance fo
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

  • Duncan Company estimates bad debts at   (a) 5% of accounts receivable

Dr Bad Debt Expense                             $ 3.000

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 3.000

  • (b) 5% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,500 debit balance.  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 6.500

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 6.500

Explanation:

 

Initial Balance  

Sales Revenue (all on credit)         $ 900,000

Less: Sales Returns and Allowances $ 50,000

Estimates bad debts 5%

Dr Accounts Receivable                       $ 100,000

Cr Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $ 2,000

When the company estimates the bad debts, the journal entry is the loss to the income statement through the account Bad Debt Expense and the record in the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts as a credit to deduct from Accounts Receivable in the Balance Sheet.

The entry it's less than the estimated value of 5% because the account "Allowance for Doubtful Accounts" had a balance of $2,000 on Credit.

Duncan Company estimates bad debts at   (a) 5% of accounts receivable  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 3,000

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 3,000

The new balance on Allowance for Doubtful Accounts as Debit of $1,500 means that when the entry of the adjustment is recorded it's necessary to compensate that value to show a  debit balance of $5,000., because the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts must reflect a credit balance.

(b) 5% of accounts receivable but Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a $1,500 debit balance.  

Dr Bad Debt Expense                            $ 6,500

Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts $ 6,500

Accounts Uncollectible are those credit that the company give and there are not chances of been collected.

When the customers buy products on credits but then the company can't collect the debt, then it's necessary to write off the unpaid bill as uncollectible.

One way it's to write-off directly the bad debts at the moment decided that the credit are uncollectible, the total amount it's reported as bad debt expenses which affect negativly the income statement and the accounts receivable are reduced in the same amount, less assets.

The other way it's to determine a percentage of total amount of accounts receivables as uncollectible, exist many ways to analize the accounts receivable and figure the value of uncollectible.

When the company have the percentage of uncollectible accounts the journal entry required is Bad Expenses (debit) with Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (credit)

At the moment of the write-off as the expenses were before recognized we only use the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts (Debit) with Accounts Receivable (Credit), with this we are recognizing the uncollectible credit of the company.

At higher prices, the price elasticity of demand is likely to be ________, whereas it is likely to be ________ at lower prices.
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

2. elastic; inelastic

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand, the amount consumers demand from a particular price are different for each good or service, and when the price changes, the response shown as the change in the quantity requested is different for each good (even at a different price level for one good).

In the face of price changes, the severity (or degree of sensitivity) of the reaction of consumers in the form of changing the amount they buy against this change is measured by the price elasticity of the demand, which is also called demand elasticity. This flexibility is expressed by a coefficient.

The price elasticity coefficient of demand is equal to the ratio of the percentage change in the quantity demanded to the percentage change in price in the face of a small change in price.

The Price elasticity will be elastic when it equals or more than 1, if not it will be inelastic with the amount of less than 1.
