Answer:

Option (d) 7 times

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net income = $250,000

Dividends paid to common stockholders = $50,000

Common stock outstanding = 50,000

Selling price of the common stocks = $35

Now,

The price-earnings ratio is calculated as:

⇒ ( Stock price ) ÷ ( Earnings per share )

also,

Earnings per share = ( Net income ) ÷ ( common stock outstanding )

= $250,000 ÷ 50,000

= $5

or

Price-earnings ratio = $35 ÷ $5

or

Price-earnings ratio = 7 times

Option (d) 7 times

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

EPS is $2.8 per share

Diluted EPS is $2.4 per share

Explanation:

Basic Earning per share is calculated dividing Earning for the year excluding preferred dividend by weighted average number of shares.

Basic EPS = (Net Income - Preferred dividends) / Weighted Average numbers of share

Basic EPS = ($592,000 - ( 19,100 x $0.9 ) / 205,000 = $2.8 per share

Diluted earning per share is calculated by adjusting all the convertible share options or securities in the outstanding share.

Diluted EPS = (Net Income - Preferred dividends) / Diluted numbers of share

Diluted EPS = ($592,000 - $17,190) / ( 205,000 + 39,000 )

Diluted EPS = $2.4 per share

All  the option given are inconsistent with data given.

Roofing Issues. Sally agrees to roof a house for Bob. After doing his research, Bob chooses Sally based on her great reputation
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

C. Spencer will win because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally is liable for his negligence

Explanation:

Spencer will win the lawsuit and Sally is liable for negligence.

This is because, Sally was the person originally hired to do the roofing job.

She hired other workers to help her with the job, so she's liable to their actions and inactions.

Sally is operating under a working agreement (contract) and has already charged a fee of $10,000 so any punitive damages would be her responsibility.

Spencer was moving around and Glen threw some roofing shingles without any word of warning to people that might be in harm's way. So for Glenn's actions, Sally is liable for his negligence.
