Answer:

e. $6,000 preferred; $0 common.

Explanation:

The Preference Stock holders hold first preference during payment of dividends followed by the Common Stockholders.

Note also that Cumulative Preference Stock can have their dividends accumulated and paid in the latter years when funds become available.

Amount of Preference Stock dividend is fixed and calculated as follows:

9,450 shares × $10 × 5% = $ 4,725

2015

Cash dividends                                  = $0

Preference Stock dividend Paid      = $0

Preference Stock dividend Arrears = $ 4,725

No Common Stock Dividend

2016

Cash dividends                                  = $6,000

Preference Stock dividend Paid      = $6,000

Preference Stock dividend Arrears = $ 3,450

No Common Stock Dividend

A produce distributor uses 774 packing crates a month, which it purchases at a cost of $12 each. The manager has assigned an ann
ki77a [65]

Answer:

$444.42

Explanation:

For computing the saving amount, first need to calculate the economic order quantity, total cost etc

The economic order quantity is

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

where,

Annual demand is

= 774 packaging crates × 12 months

= 9,932 crates

And, the carrying cost is

= $12 × 34%

= $4.08

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{9,288}\times \text{\$29}}{\text{\$4.08}}}

= 363.37 crates

Now the total cost is

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit

= 9,288 ÷ 363 × $29 + 363 ÷ 2 × $4.08

= $742.02 + $740.52

= $1,482.54

Now the total cost in case of 774 packing crates is

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit

= 9,288 ÷ 774 × $29 + 774 ÷ 2 × $4.08

= $348 + $1,578.96

= $1,926.96

So, the annual saving cost is

= $1,926.96 - $1,482.54

= $444.42

koban [17]
$2,134.62.

There are approximately 52 weeks in a given year, meaning that there are 52/2, or 26, biweekly pay periods. Therefore, we divide the annual salary of $55,500 by 26 biweekly pay periods to get $2,134.62 for the biweekly paycheck. 

The formula is the annual amount divided by the number of periods. Here, there are 26 periods of biweekly (once every two weeks) paychecks.
