Answer:

$1.2

Explanation:

The computation of earning per common share is shown below:

Earning per share = (Net income) ÷ (Number of shares)

where,

Net income = $510,000

And, the number of shares = $400,000 + $100,000 × (3 months ÷ 12 months)

= $400,000 + $25,000

= $425,000

The 3 months is calculated from October 1 to December 31

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $510,000 ÷ $425,000

= $1.2

dedylja [7]

Answer:

<u>a. Zero dividend.</u>

<u>b. 3.5 new shares</u>;

<em>texes will be paid.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

a. March 20 is a date earlier than when the dividends are too be paid on April 18, and as such Wilfred Nadeau<em> will not</em> receive any dividend if he sells his stocks since he no longer has ownership of them.

b. 45 cents dividends per 300 stocks of Wilfred is $135 (reinvestment dividend plan).

With a discount of 3.4% at $39.8 (3.4%*39.8) current price per stock makes the total cost per stock after discount= $38.4.

Dividing the reinvestment dividend plan over the discounted price (135/38.4) = 3.5 new shares, According to the requirements of law the investor must still pay tax annually on his or her dividend income, whether it is received as cash or reinvested.

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Multiple choices below are missing:

A) purchase Bond A

B) purchase Bond B

C) purchase neither A nor B at this time

D) negotiate a higher rate on Bond A

The correct option is A,purchase bond A.

Explanation:

By purchasing Bond A,Lee is assured interest payment of 7.5% for a period of twenty years,hence the issuer cannot call the bond if interest rate drops by 2% in order to issue a lower interest-bearing bond which would be cheaper cost-wise.

However, if Lee purchases Bond B with current coupon of 8.25%,the interest is only guaranteed for a period of two years,since the issuer has the prerogative of calling back the bond after two years should interest fall in order to issue another bond that commands lower interest rate.
