Answer:

The correct option B ,stock price increased proportionately with the dividend increase

Explanation:

To a rational investor, the price tag on a share is given by the expected dividend divided by the investor's rate of return.

To illustrate this further, the increase in dividend  in percentage terms is calculated thus:

=($1.48-$1.45)/$1.45=2.07%

The divided has increased by 2.07%

Assuming investor's rate of return is 10%, we can calculate the price of the stock when dividend is $1.45 as well as when it is $1.48

price=$1.45/0.1=$14.5

price=$1.48/0.1=$14.8

The increase in price is computed thus:

(14.8-14.5)/14.5=2.07%

There is no doubt that an increase in dividend of 2.07%  brought about the same increase share price ,hence choice of answer.

ICE Princess25 [194]

<u>Explanation:</u>

First, remember that the difference between <em>normative and positive economic analysis</em> is that;

Normative analysis take a somewhat neutral view by stating how the world should be. While

<u> Thus, a </u><u>Normative analysis</u><u> of the consequence of minimum​ wage would be the following statements:</u>

c. In some cities such as San Francisco and New​ York, it would be impossible for low−skilled workers to live comfortably in the city without minimum wage laws.

d. The gains to winners of a minimum wage law should be valued more highly than the losses to losers because the latter primarily comprises businesses.

Which inventory costing method results in the lowest net income during a period of rising inventory​ costs?.
scoray [572]

Due to the greatest cost of goods sold, the LIFO (Last In Last Out) technique displays the lowest net profitability. Compared to the other techniques of inventory valuation, the cost of goods sold for the LIFO approach is the greatest.

<h3>Which technique of inventory valuation will result in the lowest net profit?</h3>

The application of LIFO will produce the lowest net income and the greatest estimated cost of goods sold among the three options during periods of inflation.

<h3>Which method of inventory has the lowest income tax rate?</h3>

LIFO is the inventory cost flow method that yields the lowest income tax liability. A form of inventory cost flow mechanism called last-in-first-out (LIFO) operates under the presumption that the last item acquired will be the first item to be sold.

<h3>In an era of inflation, which inventory method results in the lowest income tax?</h3>

Due to increasing COGS, LIFO leads to reduced net income (and taxes). However, under LIFO during inflation, there are fewer inventory write-downs. Results from average cost are in the middle of FIFO and LIFO.

Andy just purchased a 2.5 acre vacant lot of land for $500,000. What was the price per square yard?
julsineya [31]

Andy just purchased a 2.5 acre vacant lot of land for $500,000. $41.32 per sq. yd price per square yard.

$500,000 ÷ 12,100 sq. yds. = $41.32 per sq. yd

What is square yard?

  • The length times the width, expressed in feet, must be multiplied by 9, and the result is the square yard (SQYDS). A square yard measures 9 square feet.
  • One billion is referred to as "yard" in finance. The word is derived from "milliard," which is comparable to the number one billion in American English and is used in various European languages.
  • Add the area to the conversion factor to convert a square yard measurement to a square foot measurement. The square yards multiplied by nine gives the area in square feet.
  • Add the length to the conversion factor to convert a yard measurement to a meter measurement. The yards times 0.9144 converts to the length in meters.

A company completes 21,000 units this month and has ending goods in process inventory of 3,000 units which are estimated to be 4
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: $36,000

Explanation:

First calculate the Equivalent Units of Production;

= 21,000 + (3,000 * 40%)

= 21,000 + 1,200

= 22,200 units

Then find the cost of each units.

= Total production cost/ Equivalent units of production

= 666,000/22,200

= $30 per unit

Then the cost of ending Goods in Process Inventory is:

= Equivalent ending process inventory units * cost per unit

= 1,200 * 30

= $36,000
