Marcus owns common stock in XO, an oil and energy company that is about to be liquidated. Is Marcus guaranteed to be paid in the
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

As a common stock holder, Marcus falls among the last class of stakeholders to be settled in XO's dissolution. A typical hierarchy of settlement during company dissolution is

  • Secured creditors
  • Unsecured creditors
  • Preference stock holder
  • Common stock holder

As such, as a common stock holder, Marcus will only be paid after all creditors and preference stock holders have been paid. And given that companies in liquidation are in that situation in the first place due to their inability to meet their obligations, there may not be enough resources left for common stockholders after distribution to creditors and preference stock holders.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

a. Gains from being nice = $60

reason: outcome for being nice = $100; outcome for being mean = $40 So the gains from being nice = 100 - 40 = 60

b. Average mean server earnings = $40 (given)

Average nice server earnings = $ 100 (given)

  Change in tips per server if all of the servers switch from being mean to being nice = $60 (100 - 40)

c. Individual payoff of my becoming nice = $6

reason: Total number of servers = 10

Change to the tip pool with my change in behavior from mean to nice = $60

My share in this change = 60/ 10 =6

d.  1-I am more likely to be nice when I keep my own tips.

reason: I can keep $100 if I am nice. But in a tip pool, some of the others may be mean. This will bring the pool amount lower, thereby my share may be less than $100. So I prefer to keep my own tips.
