Answer:

Dividend in arrears =$2,800,000

Total due this year = $ 5,600,000

= 7%× 200 = $14

<em>Arrears dividend </em>

= $14 × 200,000

= $2,800,000

<em>Dividend due for payment this year</em>

Dividend in arrears=2,800,000

Dividend this year =  2,<u>800,000</u>

Answer:

the dividends in arrears = $2,800,000

the total dividend that must be paid this year = $5,600,000

Explanation:

<u>the dividends in arrears</u>

Last Year = 200,000 shares × $200 × 7%

                = $2,800,000

<u>total dividend that must be paid this year</u>

<em>Note : The Preference Shares are cumulative meaning that arrears in dividends are accumulated to be paid at a future date</em>

Last Year`s Dividend          $2,800,000

<em>Add </em>This Year`s Dividend  $2,800,000

Total                                     $5,600,000

VikaD [51]
The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Minimum Transfer Price is $3.50

Explanation:

The Minimum transfer price is calculated by adding the variable cost per unit with the opportunity cost. In this case where the clock division is not operating at full capacity then the opportunity cost would be considered as $0.

Moreover, the division would be able to avoid a $0.5 cost per clock. Therefore, the variable cost will be $3.50 ($4 - $0.5) after eliminating the $0.5.

Finally, the minimum transfer would as follows:

Minimum Transfer Price = Variable cost + Opportunity Cost
