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

Your friend Burrell says that the government should hire fewer social workers in order to reduce the cost of federal assistance
BARSIC [14]

Answer: b) peoples' responses to financial incentives.

Explanation:

Burrell would be wrong because the most leakage in federal assistance programs comes from the way people respond to financial incentives.

Some people who have received this assistance from the Federal government have decided that it would be better to keep receiving this assistance instead of working to actually get paid.

This has led to more people seeking assistance thereby increasing the number of people needing assistance and invariably increasing the cost of these federal assistance programs.

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

B) the less an additional unit of capital adds to production

Explanation:

The diminishing return state that if everything else is held constant, each additional unit will increase production by a fewer amount than previous one. That's because the same amount of resource can only use efficiently a certain amount of capital then there is a loss in this good use and therefore, the output do not increase at the same rate as we add up capital.

The only way to decrease your lifestyle budget is by completely eliminating an item.
N76 [4]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A budget is a financial plan used for the estimation of revenue and expenditures of an individual, organization or government for a specified period of time, often one year. Budgets are usually compiled, analyzed and re-evaluated on periodic basis.

The first step of the budgeting process is to prepare a list of each type of income and expense that will be part of the budget.

A lifestyle can be defined as the way and manner an individual chooses to live his or her life. Similarly, a lifestyle budget comprises the cost of goods and services an individual has chosen to spend his or her money on.

Basically, completely eliminating an item isn't the only way to decrease a lifestyle budget because there could be similar items that even cost way more than the eliminated item.

Some of the benefits of having a budget is that it aids in setting goals, earmarking revenues and resources, measuring outcomes and planning against contingencies.
