Answer:

Sharper Corporation's Stockholders' Equity Section of Balance Sheet:

Common Stock:

Authorized Capital 120,000, $10 par value $0

Issued capital 90,000 at $10 par = $900,000

APIC = $400,000

Retained Earnings = $310,000

Total Stockholders' Equity = $1,610,000

2 Number of shares outstanding after the dividend distribution is 90,000 shares.

Explanation:

1. The dividend per share was calculated as follows:

50% of $10 = $5 per share

Total dividends = $5 x 90,000 = $450,000.

2. The Retained Earnings changed from $760,000 to $310,000 ($760,000 - $450,000).  Dividends are paid out of retained earnings.

3. The number of shares outstanding after the distribution of dividends did not change.  It could change if there were a stock split or some shares were repurchased under Treasury Stock.

Kangaroo Autos is offering free credit on a new $10,000 car: You pay $1,000 down and then $300 a month for the next 30 months. T
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Kangaroo Auto offers the better deal

If the I go for Kangaroo Autos, then I will save $257.69 in today's term

Explanation:

Here we need to compare the present value of the two options;

Present value is the worth today of an amount or series of amount payable or receivable in the future period.

Where a series of equal amount is receivable or payable in the future it is called an annuity.

One of the payment options includes an annuity. Therefore, we need to work out the present value of the annuity. This is done using the following formula:

Present Value = A ×( 1 - (1+r)^(-n))/r

where A = equal cash flow, r- rate per period, n - no. of periods

A = 300, r- rate per month - 12%/12 = 1% , n= 30

PV = 300 ×(1- (1+0.01)^(-30))/0.01

    = 300 × 25.877

     =7,742.31

Now we can work out he cost of each option  and comapare them in today's Dollar:

Option 1 : Kangaroo Autos

Total cost of option 1 = deposit + PV of annuity

                                  =   1000 + 7,742.31

              cost              = 8,742.31

Option 2: Turtle Motors:

Price =  Car price - Discount

        =   $10,000 - $1000

     cost    =   $9,000

Kangaroo Auto offers a better  deal.

If  I go for Kangaroo Autos, then I will save $257.69 in today's term

How is health insurance different from auto insurance?
Bess [88]

While both types of insurance are required, if you do not have health insurance, you will be required to pay a fee on your taxes.

FYI, while this used to be true the United States has recently removed the requirement known as the "individual mandate" for people to have health insurance or face a penalty.

A survey reveals that, on a small island, 175 people have jobs, 25 people are not working but are looking for jobs, and 90 peopl
joja [24]

Answer:

The answer is = 12.5%

Explanation:

The 175 people that have jobs are in unemployment (employed).

The 25 people that are not working but are looking for jobs are called unemployed.

The 90 people are neither working nor looking for work for work are not counted in the employment.

Therefore, the labor force is employed people + unemployed people.

Labor force is 175 + 25= 200 people.

So, unemployment rate is:

(unemployed people ÷ labor force) x 100

(25÷200) x 100%

=12.5%
