ELEN [110]

Answer:

The new EPS is $ 3.16  

Explanation:

In order to compute the earnings per share after the share repurchase the shares repurchased must deducted from the weighted average number of share of 320,000 before repurchase so as  to arrive at the number of shares eligible for the earnings after such repurchase.

The number of shares repurchased=$634,000/$62.97

                                                           = 10,068.29  

The average weighted number of shares after repurchase is  309,931.71  (320,000-10,068.29)

EPS after repurchase=$980,000/309,931.71

                                   =$3.16 per share

Fundamentals of Supply are view for the point of the
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Supply side is the view point of the Firms or the Businesses.

Explanation:

As the law of demand deals with the consumers side, the law of supply deals with the suppliers or the firms/businesses.

this tries to explain the factors that affect the supply, such as the prices of the substitutes and complements, the price of a commodity itself, taxes, government subsidies, technological influences, etc...

in this question, the 1st option, consumer is wrong. However, in certain situations, Government can be acted as a "supplier" (if there is a government monopoly on the supply of a good or a service", and government is a heavy influencer of supply through the implementaion of taxes and subsidies!

Using accrual accounting, expenses are recorded and reported only: _A. when they are incurred and paid at the same time. B. if t
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

C. when they are incurred, whether or not cash is paid.

Explanation:

In accrual accounting, expenses are recorded in the moment they are incurred, even if they have not been paid for.

In fact, the term "accrued expense" means an expense that has been incurred, but not yet paid.

One common example of an accrued expense is accrued wages:

Suppose that a firm hires a worker on March 1, for a wage of $1,000 dollars per month, that is due to be paid at the end of the month (March 31). This worker is earning $33 per day. By March 4, the firm should have recorded accrued wages for $132 ($33 x 4 days) even if no payments will be made until March 31.

Molly is considering a project with cash inflows of $811, $924, $638, and $510 over the next four years, respectively. The relev
kati45 [8]

Answer:

A. -$425.91

Explanation:

Given that

Start up cost = 2700

Cash inflow 1 = 811

Cash inflow 2 = 924

Cash inflow 3 = 638

Cash inflow 4 = 510

Rate = 11.2% or 0.112

Recall that

NPV = E(CF/1 + i]^n) - initial investment or start up cost

Where

E = summation

CF = Cash flow

i = discount rate

n = years

Thus

NPV = -$2,700 + $811 / 1 + 0.112 + $924 / 1 + 0.112^2 + $638 / 1 + 0.112^3 + $510 / 1 + 0.112^4

NPV = -$425.91

Therefore, NPV = -$425.91

You are the manager of a firm that produces output in two plants. The demand for your firm's product is P = 78 − 15Q, where Q =
Leona [35]

Answer:

correct option is B. 40.5

Explanation:

given data

P = 78 - 15 Q

Q = Q1 + Q2

MC1 = 3Q1

MC2 = 2Q2

to find out

What price should be charged to maximize profits

solution

we get here first total revenue and marginal revenue that is

total revenue TR = P × Q   .......1

total revenue TR = 78Q - 15Q²

and

marginal revenue MR = \frac{change\ in\ TR}{change\ in\ Q}

marginal revenue MR = 78 - 30Q

now we get here

marginal revenue MR = MC1 = MC2

put here value

78 - 30Q1 - 30Q2 = 3 Q1 or 33 Q1 = 78 - 30Q2   ......................................a

78 - 30 Q1 - 30 Q2 = 2 Q2 or Q2 = 78 - 30Q1/32   ................................b

by equation a and b we get here

33 Q1 = 78 - 30 (78 - \frac{30Q1}{32} )

so here Q1 = 1 and

Q2 = 78 -  \frac{30*1}{32}

Q2 = 1.5

so that Q will be

Q = Q1 + Q2

Q = 1 + 1.5

Q = 2.5

now we get value of P that is

P = 78 - 15 Q

P = 78 - 15 (2.5)  

P = 40.5

so charged to maximize profits is 40.5

so correct option is B. 40.5
