Answer:

$34.46

Explanation:

In this Question there is Highest value of 10% and the probability of 90%.

we will use following formula to calculate the highest value of the stock

z value = ( x - mean ) / Standard deviation

where

x = the highest value

z score value at 10% = 1.28

Placing value in the formula

1.28 = ( x - $29.51 ) / $3.87

1.28 x $3.87 = x - $29.51

$4.9536 = x - $29.51

x = $4.9536 + $29.51

x = 34.4636

Quantum Technology had $652,000 of retained earnings on December 31, 20X2. The company paid common dividends of $33,300 in 20X2
loris [4]

Answer:

(a) $546,300

(b) $12.88

Explanation:

(a)  Earnings available to common stockholders:

= Dividend + Retained Earnings

= 33,300 + 513,000

Earnings available to common stockholders means the amount available to distribute as dividend.

But the company need not pay full earnings as dividend. They may left some portion as retained earnings.

(b)  Earnings per share:

= Earnings available to common stockholders ÷ no. of shares of common stock

= $546,300 ÷ 42,400

= $12.88

"Falling oil prices have caused a sharp decrease in the supply of oil." Speaking precisely, and using terms as they are defined
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The answer is: D) The quotation is incorrect: A decrease in price causes a decrease in quantity supplied, not a decrease in supply.

Explanation:

A decrease in the price of a product or service will always decrease the quantity supplied and increase the quantity demanded of the product. The terms supply and demand apply to the entire curve, not an specific point in them.  

For example, the equilibrium point for milk is 5 million gallons sold at $3 each. If the government suddenly decides that it will place a price ceiling for milk at $2 per gallon (may use argument that it is a necessity good essential for the well being of children) the quantity demanded for milk will rise but the quantity supplied will fall.

That is because not every dairy business will be able to produce and sell milk at $2 and still make a profit (or meet their expected profit levels), so they will either lower their milk production (make substitute products) or go out of business.

When the world went to a system of floating exchange rates, the Balance of Payments became a relic of a system of fixed exchange
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The balance of payments includes all the economic transactions that a country has with the rest of the world, including the balance or trade (exports of goods - imports of goods), balance of services (exports of services - imports of services), capital account (net change in a nation's assets and liabilities), and total unilateral transfers (money sent out f the country vs money sent into the country).

The balance of payments is a very important economic indicator.
