Answer:
Cash Dividends - Year 2 = $84400
Explanation:
The net income of the business is usually appropriated or used for two purposes at the end of the year. It is either used to pay dividends or is retained in the business and is added to the retained earnings or both.
Thus, to calculate the dividends paid by the business in a particular year, we can calculate the change in retained earnings and deduct it from the net income.
Change in retained earnings = Ending balance of retained earnings - Beginning balance of retained earnings
Change in retained earnings = 694000 - 587400
Change in retained earnings = $106600
Thus, out of the net income of $191000, $106600 were transferred to retained earnings. So, the amount of dividends paid for the year is,
Cash Dividends - Year 2 = 191000 - 106600 = $84400
Answer:
As a risk minimizer : Stock A has the lowest standard deviation, thus, it should be chosen, if it is to be held in isolation . Also stock B has the lowest beta, thus,it should be chosen, if it is to be held as part of a well - diversified portfolio.
The answer is A and B respectively
Explanation:
The standalone risk or standard deviation of the stocks is alleviated for a well diversified investor . So, in that case, the relevant risk would be the market risk or the beta.
When you see in isolation, relevant risk would be the standard deviation.
Therefore, as a risk minimizer : Stock A has the lowest standard deviation, thus, it should be chosen, if it is to be held in isolation . Also stock B has the lowest beta, thus,it should be chosen, if it is to be held as part of a well - diversified portfolio.
The two sentences meant to persuade are the following: "This is something no other computer can do at present. This is the best buy on the market." These two sentences definitely compel the customers to buy or at least want to buy the item.

Answer:
revised annual depreciation will be : 13710
Explanation:
After revision the remaining life of equipment shrank down to 2 years, so the depreciation working will be worked out to adjusted the impact of decreasing of useful life.
As per existing information the depreciation charges are calculated as :
(Cost-Salvage Value)/Useful life= (49700-4000)/10 = 4570
Accumulated Depreciation indicates that 4 years have past by (18280/4570)
now remaining years are 6 which will be reduced to 2 after revision so the new working will be as follows:
Remaining Cost :31420 (49700
-18280)
Salvage Value : 4000
Revised Remaining Useful Life : 2
Revised Calculated Depreciation Annual : (31420-4000)/2 = 13710
It can be further verified through simple math also:
Adding annual depreciation of remaining 2 years : 13710
+13710
=27420
Value available for depreciation after salvage value : 31420
-4000= 27420
