Answer and Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

1)

Fair value per share = $20.4

Number of Share = 2 million

Fair value of award = Fair value per share ×Number of Share

= $20.4 × 2 million

= $40.8 million

2) No Entry

3)

Compensation expense($40.8 million÷4 years) $10.2 million

          To Paid in capital - restricted stock($20.4-$10.2) $10.2  million

(Being the compensation expense is recorded)

4)

Fair value per share = $20.4

Share granted = 2 million

(100%-10%) forfeiture rate = 90%

fair value of award = $20.4×2×90%

= $36.72 million

Roger purchased a stock for $16 a share. The stock paid a $1 annual dividend and increased in price by $2 a year for the followi
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The answer is 11.2%

Explanation:

Cost of acquisition: $16 per share

Annual dividend: $1

The stock increases by $2 every year for 3 years. Therefore, we have:

First year is $16 per share

Second year is $18 per share

Third year is $20 per share.

The arithmetic average annual capital gain will be

($2/$16 + $2/$18 + $2/$20)/3

(0.125 + 0.111 + 0.1) / 3

0.336/3

0.112

Expressed as a percentage:

= 11.2%

Which of the following The holding-period return (HPR) on a share of stock is equal to(s) the level of real interest rates? I) T
____ [38]

Answer: D. I, II, and III.

Explanation:

The demand for investment funds determines the demand for loanable funds and when this is higher than the supply, the rate increases. The reverse it true. It therefore affects real interest rates.

The savings of households and business firms are the source of loanable funds so if these are high relative to demand, the rate will decrease. The reverse is true.

Government demand for funds will increase interest rates as the supply will decrease when the government borrows massively. The reverse is true.

All three therefore impart real interest rates.

What change is taking place on this graph?
makvit [3.9K]

Change in the price of the good results in the movement along the same demand curve.

Factors other than price results in the shift in demand curve.

A rightward shift in demand would increase the quantity demanded at all prices compared to the original demand curve.

While a left shift indicates decrease in demand.

In the given graph , there is a rightward shift of the demand curve from left to the right ( D1 to D2), Thus we can say that there is an increase in demand.

"when the number of units produced exceeds the number of units sold, net income under absorption costing will be:"
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The answer is that the net income under absorption costing would be higher than the net income under variable costing.

Explanation:

Absorption costing and variable costing are terms used in accounting contexts. Absorption costing, also known as full costing, incurs overhead costs when the product is sold; not before it. Variable costing, also referred to as direct costing, would include overhead costs during the period the costs occurred. In this condition, net income would be higher using absorption since overhead costs would not be included until the product is sold.
