yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Preemptive rights

Explanation:

Preemptive rights are a way of preventing the dilution of a shareholder's ownership in a corporation.  Preemptive rights are set by a contract clause that establishes that in case the corporation issues new stock, then a current shareholder must be given the right to buy additional shares before the stocks are sold to other investors.

The preemptive right usually gives the stockholder the right to buy new stock in the same proportion as his/her current stock ownership. For example, if an investor currently owns 2% of the company's stock, he/she will be able to buy 2% of every new set of stocks issued.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

                                     Book Value                          Market Value

Current Assets              $14 m                                        $14.95 m

Fixed Assets                  $18 m                                        $27 m

Total                               $32 m                                        $41.95 m

Explanation:

For book Value:

Net fixed assets=$18.00 million

Current Liabilities=$7.50 million

net working capital=$6.50 million

Formula:

Net working capital=Current assets-Current Liabilities

$6.50 million=Current assets-$7.50 million

Current Assets=$6.50+$7.50

Current Assets=$14 million

Total Assets=Net fixed assets+Current Assets

Total Assets=$18 m+$14 m

Total Assets=$32 m

For Market Value:

Net fixed assets=$27.00 million

Current Liabilities=$7.50 million

net working capital=$7.45 million

Formula:

Net working capital=Current assets-Current Liabilities

$7.45 million=Current assets-$7.50 million

Current Assets=$7.45+$7.50

Current Assets=$14.95 million

Total Assets=Net fixed assets+Current Assets

Total Assets=$27 m+$14.95 m

Total Assets=$41.95 m

                                     Book Value                          Market Value

Current Assets              $14 m                                        $14.95 m

Fixed Assets                  $18 m                                        $27 m

Total                               $32 m                                        $41.95 m

The four conditions (mutual exclusion, hold and wait, no preemption and circular wait) are necessary for a resource deadlock to
Evgen [1.6K]

Explanation:

The conditions sufficient for a resource deadlock to occur is when a  deadlock will  prevail for process A, B, and C when two resources R and S; if only one instance of each resources is allowed.

Solution

Deadlock conditions

A deadlock is a situation where two or more processes request for same critical resource at the same time.

The mutual exclusion applies a restriction to a resource when the resource is used by any process, it should become unavailable for the other resources

The hold and wait allocations explains that any process which is allocate resources must hold them; till all needed resources are nor sure.

In the meantime, if any other processes need a resource which is held by another process, then the latter will release the resource to prevent deadlock.

No pre-emption states that the operating system can grant access to resources to another process while it is in use by another process; depending on the priority , to prevent deadlock.

Circular wait should not be implemented so that resources being requested by process are allocated when they get free.

Now,

Three processes A, B, and C functions on a system, having two distinct resources R and S.

The resource  R has one instant active while resource S has two instances available.

The instance of R is allocated to a process A after request. first instance of resource S is allocated to process B, and second instance of resource S is allocated to process C.

When a request is placed by process B for resource R, then the resource is not available for execution. the process A request for resource S which is used by both C and B.

All the four conditions prevail in this situation; yet deadlock does not occur.

The resource S is released by process C and is allocated to process A. when process A finishes, it releases resources and resources R is allocate d to process B.

Hence all three processes end without a deadlock.

However, the deadlock will prevail for process A, B, and C when two resources R and S; if only one instance of each resources is allowed.
