The correct answer is 
<span>No, like all resources, supply and demand also affect how much a worker is paid. 
For example, a worker doing the same computer job might be paid more in New York than in other places: this has to do with the fact that the demand and supply (in form of workers ready to work in NY for a certain wage) are different in those two places</span>
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
1. $28,800
$103,200
2. $28,800
$103,200
3. $86,400
$45,600
Explanation:
1. The dividend paid to preferred stockholders = Shares × Par value × Percentage
= 3,000 shares × $120 × 8%
= $28,800
The dividend paid to Common stockholders = Cash dividend - Dividend paid to preferred stockholders
= $132,000 - $28,800
= $103,200
2. The dividend paid to preferred stockholders = Shares × Par value × Percentage
Note :- Because preferred stocks are non-cumulative in nature, the company is not allowed to pay last two years' dividends and preferred stocks are liable for payment only for the current year.
= 3,000 shares × $120 × 8%
= $28,800
The dividend paid to Common stockholders =  Cash dividend - Dividend paid to preferred stockholders
= $132,000 - $28,800
= $103,200
3. The dividend paid to preferred stockholders = Shares × Par value × Percentage × Number of years
Note: Since preferred stocks are cumulative in nature, the company is forced to pay last two years' dividends along with the current year's dividend.
= 3,000 shares × $120 × 8 % × 3 years
= $86,400
The dividend paid to Common stockholders = Cash dividend - Dividend paid to preferred stockholders
= $132,000 - $86,400
= $45,600
 
        
             
        
        
        
In class 2 ., The Model D is the Top/ favorite one having highest market return (24%) with lowest inventory cost ($79)
Explanation:
To Determine the value of the inventory at the lower of cost or market applied to each item in the inventory. simply we should calculate the profit margin for each category 
Profit margin =  (market value - cost price) = Profit ÷ cost price × 100
Class 1: 
Model A 
46 $116 $139  
Profit margin = (139 - 116) = 23  ÷ 116 × 100 = 19.32%
Model B 
49 243 239 
Profit margin =  (239 - 243)= -4 ÷ 243 × 100 = - 1.65% (loss)
Model C 
43 233 252
Profit margin =   (252 - 233) = 19 ÷ 233 × 100 =  8.15%
Class 2: 
Model D 
37 79 98
Profit margin =  (98 - 79) = 19 ÷ 79 × 100 =  24%
 Model E 
6 151 130
Profit margin =  (130 - 151) = - 21 ÷ 79 × 100 = -13.91 % (loss)
Result
In class 1
 Model A is preferable., It has the lowest inventory value and has highest market value (Returns) at 19.82% 
In class 2
 Model D is preferable., It has the lowest inventory value and has highest market value (Returns) at 24% 
Overall the Model D is the Top/ favorite one having highest market return with lowest inventory cost
 
        
             
        
        
        
Lets explain first what the equity theory states. This theory says that all employees want to be treated fairly. If employees see that there is someyhing that is not fair they willtry to reestablish fairness by decrease inputs or what is the same decrease their productivity, rationalize the difference and increase their inputs so that managers will note what they do. In this case the correct option for becca is to i<span>ncrease her inputs in hopes her efforts will be noticed</span>
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
rate of return: 16.67%
Explanation:
unadjusted rate of return

Average investment
Assuming no salvage value:
(beginning investment + ending investing)/2
(4,800 + 0 )/ 2 = 2,400
<u>cost savings:</u> 720
<u>depreciation:</u> 4,800 / 15 = 320
average  return 400
400/2400 = 16.67%
