Answer:

Explanation:

ed= 2 , Price increase by 5%.

Elasticity of Demand = % Change in Quantity demanded/ % change in price

% change in quantity demanded = 2*5%=10%

Since, the elasticity > 1 and price has decreased, the total revenue will decrease. The impact of price change on Total revenue is based on the relationship between elasticity of demand and Total revenue.

Thus, there will be 10% fall

If a person is going to be accused of a crime, if future agency action would be frustrated, or if the meeting involves future litigation or rule making, then the meeting may be closed.

3) The law which requires the government to reassess the impact on business and continue to look for less burdensome means of achieving a governmental goal is Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Which of the following is a difference between common stock and bonds? A) Bondholders have a voice in management; common stockho
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

B) Bondholders have a senior claim on assets and income relative to stockholders.

Explanation:

Bond holder: They are one who owns bonds issued by the company, where companies are not liable to pay a dividend if they fail to generate enough profit. Although preferred stock provides added financial leverage in much the same way as bonds, it differs from bonds in that the issuer can pass a dividend payment without suffering the consequences that result when an interest payment is missed on a bond.

Share holder: They are the ones who own stock in a company. The buyer has an option to choose between common stock and preferred stock. The company take priority in paying a dividend to the common stockholder, however, the preferred stockholder has a voting right in the company.

PCB Corporation manufactures a single product. Monthly production costs incurred in the manufacturing process are shown below fo
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Total Variable cost is $9 per unit

Varibale cost of Utilities is $0.5 per unit

Varibale cost of Maintainance $0.3 per unit

Explanation:

First calculate Fixed and Variable cost separately.

Fixed costs = Property taxes + Supervisory Salaries + Depreciation + Fixed utilities cost + Fixed Maintenance costs

Fixed Cost  = $1,280 + 2,304 + $3,072 + $384 + $256 = $7,296

Variable costs to produce 3,840 units = Direct materials + Direct labor + Indirect labor

Variable costs to produce 3,840 units = $9,600 + $19,200 + $5,760 = $34,560

Variable cost per unit = Total Variable cost / Number of units

Variable cost per unit = $34,560 / 3,840 = $9 per unit

Variable cost portion of mixed cost= Total cost – Fixed portion

Utilities

Variable cost  = $2,304 – $384 = $1,920

Variable cost per unit = $1,920 / 3,840 units = $0.5 per unit

Maintainance

Variable cost  = $1,408 – $256 = $1,152

Variable cost per unit = $1,152 / 3,840 units = $0.3 per unit

Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. is a hypothetical company. Suppose it has the following balance sheet items reported at t
Zolol [24]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

Statement #1: Green Caterpillar’s pool of relatively liquid assets, which are available to support the company’s current and future sales, decreased from Year 1 to Year 2.

This statement is <u>FALSE</u>, because:

  • Green Caterpillar’s total current asset balance actually increased from $15,750 million to $19,687 million between Year 1 and Year 2

 

Statement #2: On December 31 of Year 2, Green Caterpillar Garden Supplies Inc. had $8,072 million of actual money that it could have spent immediately.

 This statement is <u>TRUE</u>, because:

  • The funds recorded in Green Caterpillar’s cash and equivalents account represents funds that are either cash or can be converted into cash almost immediately

 

Statement #3: If Green Caterpillar ever goes bankrupt, its common stockholders will be paid off first, then its debtholders and preferred stockholders.

This statement is <u>INCORRECT</u>, because:

  • Common shareholders are treated as residual investors

 

 

Based on your understanding of the different items reported on the balance sheet and the information they provide, if everything else remains the same, then the cash and equivalents item on the current balance sheet is likely to <u>INCREASE</u> if the firm issues $3 million of new common stock.

If common stocks are issued, then the journal entry should be:

Dr Cash 3,000,000

    Cr Common stock 3,000,000
