Answer:

A. Growth Stock

Explanation:

Stocks are divided into classes based upon their features with respect to the rights they carry. Usually stocks are of two classes:

Common Stock
Preferred Stock

While the former carry voting rights and avail dividends as per the profitability of the company, the latter carry preferential rights with respect to principal repayment in the event of winding up apart from carrying a fixed rate of dividend which must be paid periodically.

Growth Stocks refer to those stocks which yield higher rate of growth than average market rate but don't usually carry a right to dividend. Growth stocks relate to capital appreciation.

The basic earnings per share is $4.15

Explanation:

Earning Per Share : Earning Per share shows a ratio between net income and weighted average outstanding shares.

In mathematically,

Earning Per Share = Net income ÷ weighted average outstanding shares

where,

Net income = $269,915

And, On Jan 1, 2018 the share is 50,000 whereas on April, 2018 the shares is 20,000. But we have to calculated for the December period. From April to December there are 9 months.

So, April 2018 shares = 20,000 × 9 ÷ 12 months = 15,000 shares

Hence, total weighted average outstanding shares is

= 50,000 +15,000

= 65,000 shares

Now, apply the above formula for computation

= $269,915 ÷ 65,000 shares

= $4.15 per share

Thus, the basic earnings per share is $4.15

The higher the degree of financial leverage employed by a firm is, the: A. Higher is the number of outstanding shares of stock.

horsena [70]

Answer:

Option B,

The higher the degree of financial leverage employed by a firm, THE HIGHER THE PROBABILITY THAT THE FIRM WILL ENCOUNTER FINANCIAL DISTRESS.

Explanation:

The degree of financial leverage (DFL) is a leverage ratio that measures the sensitivity of a company's earnings per share to fluctuations in it's operating income, as a result of changes in its capital structure.

This ratio indicates that the higher the degree of financial leverage, the more volatile earnings will be.

The use of financial leverage varies greatly by industry and by the business sector. There are many industry sectors in which companies operate with a high degree of financial leverage (examples are retail stores, grocery store, banking institutions, airlines...). Unfortunately, the excessive use of financial leverage by many companies in this sector has played a major role in forcing a lot of them to file for bankruptcy.

Therefore, if the degree of financial leverage employed by a firm is high, then the probability that the firm will encounter financial distress will also be high.
