Answer:

31st Dec 2019

Dr Retained Earnings                                                             425,000

Cr Dividend Payable- cumulative preferred stock              240,000

Cr Dividend Payable - common stock                                  185,000

( to record dividend declaration paid in 31st Dec 2019)

Explanation:

Cumulative preferred stock is stock that has specific dividend payment promised by firm and has the right to receive dividend ( once it is paid out) before common stock.

As the last time the firm paid dividend is 31st Dec 2016, the dividend in-arrears for cumulative stock accounting to 3 years or $240,000, that is, to be calculated as 3 x dividend paid out per year = 3 x 100 x 10,000 x 8% = $240,000.

Thus, as firm declares $425,000 dividend payment, $240,000 must go to cumulative stock holders before the remaining $185,000 (425,000-240,000) goes to common stock holders.

Which statement represents most correctly the relationship between nominal GDP and real GDP?
Nady [450]

Answer:

The answer is: C) Nominal GDP measures current production using current prices, whereas real GDP measures current production using base-year prices.

Explanation:

Nominal GDP measures the production of total finished products and services within a country during a particular period using the current prices of the products and services. Real GDP measures the production of total finished products and services within a country during a particular period using base-year prices of the products and services.

Nominal GDP doesn't take in account inflation, while real GDP is adjusted by inflation. Nominal GDP is also higher than the real GDP since recent prices are higher than the base-year prices (due to inflation). Real GDP can be used to compare the economy's evolution over periods of time.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

attached is the diagram

Explanation:

Each extra worker produces an extra unit of output, is said to be the marginal production of an extra worker employed

marginal production  :

change in total production / change in labor = ΔTp / ΔL

Average production = Tp / L

Tp = total production ,  L = number of labor

To draw the Total product of labor , average product labor and marginal product labor curves starting from zero labor

0 worker : Total product = 0, average product labor = 0 , marginal = 0

1 worker : Total product = 1, average product = 1 , marginal = 0

2 worker : Total product = 2, average product = 1, marginal = 1

3 workers: total product = 3 average product = 1, marginal = 1

4 workers: Total product = 4, average product = 1, marginal = 1

5 workers : Total product = 5 average product = 1, marginal = 1

6 workers : total product = 6 average product = 1 , marginal = 1

7 workers : total product = 7 , average product = 0.85, marginal = 0

8 workers : total product = 8, average product = 0.75 marginal = 0

if a bookseller buys a paperback book for 4$ and the book is labeled with a selling price of 6.99,how much is the dollar markup?
lbvjy [14]
Given:
Selling price = 6.99
Cost = 4

The dollar markup is computed by deducting the cost from the selling price.

6.99 - 4 = 2.99 is the dollar mark-up based on cost.

2.99/4 = 0.7475 x 100% = 74.75% is the percentage mark-up based on cost.
