Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Earning available for equity stockholders:

= Net Income - Preferred stock dividend

= $209,600 - ($80,000 × 12%)

= $209,600 - $9,600

= $200,000

Earning Per Share:

= Earning available for equity stockholders ÷ Average number of common shares outstanding

= $200,000 ÷ 100,000

= $2

Price-Earning Ratio = Price of Share ÷ Earning Per Share

                                 = $24 ÷ $2

                                 = 12 Times or 12:1

Answer:

<u>Depreciation expense per year</u>

Year 1 = $1200

Year 2 = $800

Year 3 = $600

Year 4 = $300

Year 5 = $100

Explanation:

To determine the depreciation expense under the units of production/activity method of charging depreciation, we will first calculate the depreciation expense per unit and then multiply it with the units of production in each year to calculate the depreciation expense for that year.

The formula for depreciation under this method is attached.

Depreciation per unit = (3000 - 0) / 30000   = $0.1 per copy

<u />

<u>Depreciation expense per year</u>

Year 1 = 0.1 * 12000 = $1200

Year 2 = 0.1 * 8000 = $800

Year 3 = 0.1 * 6000 = $600

Year 4 = 0.1 * 3000 = $300

Year 5 = 0.1 * 1000 = $100

Countries that participate in a single market also permit free commerce as well as the free movement of capital and labor within the group's members.
