Answer:

The diluted EPS is $1.65

Explanation:

Solution

The Numerator (Basic EPS):

The Net income = $1,050 million

The Preferred dividends= 3mn * 9% * $ 100 = $ 27 million

because the preferred stock is cumulative, the dividend is deducted whether or not paid)

The Denominator (Basic EPS): Weighted average Number of shares

Now,

common stock outstanding (1/1 – 12/31)  600 million x (12/12) *1.05  = 630 million

The Treasury shares purchased (3/1 – 12/31)  (24) million x (10/12) *1.05  =(21) million

The  shares  treasury sold  (10/1 – 12/31)  (4) million x (3/12)  =1

The average  weighted number of shares  =610 million

so,

Basic EPS = ($1,050-27) ÷ 610 = $1.68

Stock Options

The stock choice are dilutive because exercise price is lesser than market price of $ 70 per share.

By applying the treasury stock method.

Exercise is supposed to take place at the later of the date of issue (9/13/21) or the beginning of the year (1/1/21). Assume exercise 1/1/21

The Treasury Stock Method suggests that the proceeds received upon exercise of $1,680 (30 million x $56) are used to purchase back stock at the market price average, for example  $1,680 ÷ $70 = 24 million

The net goes higher in the number of shares = 6 million  (30 million issued upon exercise – 24 million repurchased)

Convertible Bonds

By applying method if bonds are transformed into common stock.  however,a step by step approach to calculate nature of dilution. is determined

Now,

The shares issued on conversion = 6 million

The Interest paid, net of tax = $3 [(8% x $50) x 75%]

The Interest per shares issued = 3/6 = $ 0.5 per share

The EPS without assumed conversion = ($1,050 - $27+3) ÷ (610 + 6+6) = $1.65

The convertible bonds are dilutive because $1.65 is less than $1.68

Therefore, diluted EPS = ($1,050 - $27+3) ÷ (610 + 6+6) = $1.65

1. Under a shipment contract, the seller is required only to the goods into the hands of a carrier and title passes to the buyer
taurus [48]

Answer:

<h2>1) The answer is option a) or True.</h2><h2>2) Generally all contracts are assumed to be <u>Shipment </u> contracts if nothing to the contrary is stated in the contract.</h2><h2>3) The seller is required to deliver the goods to a particular destination in a destination contract,usually directly to the <u>buyer</u><u>.</u></h2><h2>4) The answer is option a) or True.</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

  1. A shipment contract mandates that the seller of any good or service is obligated to deliver the specified shipment to a common carrier for delivery to the buyer but not directly to the buyer's destination.Under  the shipment contracts,the seller is not responsible for the condition of the shipment or package during the delivery point and time to the buyer.
  2. If nothing is specifically mentioned in the contract regarding the delivery of the shipment,it assumably qualifies as a shipment contract and the seller is only liable to dispatch the shipment to the transportation carrier and not obligated to send it directly to the buyer's destination.
  3. Under a destination contract,the seller is officially obligated to dispatch the concerned goods or shipment directly to the buyer's actual destination.Hence,the seller's obligation is incomplete until the shipment subsequently reaches the buyer's destination.
  4. For destination contract,at the point of delivery,the burden of risk and title associated with the condition and ownership of the specified shipment is passed onto the buyer and seller is not officially or legally liable regarding the same.

What is the number of times an audience sees or hears an advertisement
Tems11 [23]

<u>Answer:</u> Frequency

<u>Explanation:</u>

Frequency is the number of times the audience sees or hears the advertisement. It is significant to measure the frequency of the advertisement such as TV media, posters, hoardings, radio, social media etc. to know the effectiveness of the advertisement.

When the advertisement is effective then the sales for the product or service advertised increases. Advertisement also increases the consumer awareness about the product. Increased frequency can be very efficient as it creates a memory in the minds of the consumers.

A mixed cost: A. Requires the future outlay of cash and is relevant for future decision making. B. Does not change with changes
Ket [755]

Answer:

6. D. Contains a combination of fixed costs and variable costs.

7. B. Does not change with changes in the volume of activity within the relevant range.

8. C. Direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead.

9. A. Finished goods inventory.

10. D. Work-in-Process inventory.

11. B. Cost of goods purchased.

Explanation:

6. Mixed cost is a combination of fixed costs and variable costs. Therefore, the option "D" is the correct answer. However, it is not directly traceable to a cost object. The mixed cost has not been incurred until the manufacturer uses it. It cannot change up to a specific volume, but mixed cost increases after that limit — for example - Telephone bill or Electric bill.

7. Fixed cost is the cost that does not change as the volume changes within the relevant range. Therefore, option <em>B</em> is right, and option <em>D</em> is incorrect. Because it does not require the future outlay of cash for decision making, it is not directly traceable to a cost object. If the manufacturer does not rent a house for administrative purposes, it can be avoided.

8. The three major cost components of a manufactured product are-

Direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead. Those are the combination of manufacturing cost. So, <em>C</em> is the answer. Indirect labor and materials are not major cost components, so <em>B</em> is incorrect. Opportunity cost and sunk costs are decision-making costs, so <em>D</em> is wrong. Selling, administrative, and marketing costs are non-manufacturing costs, so <em>A</em> and <em>E</em> are wrong.

9. When the manufacturing firm has completed the production of a specific product but has not yet sold to the customers or third parties, it is termed as the finished goods inventory. In short, it states that the number of manufactured products that are available for sale. It is a current asset for the manufacturer because those can be sold within a year.

10. Work-in-process inventory is such a type of manufacturing inventory or cost that has not yet been manufactured or partially manufactured or in the process of manufacturing. It is not a conversion costs because it may incur the direct labor and manufacturing overhead. It cannot be a finished good or cost of goods sold.

11. A manufacturing firm's cost of goods manufactured is equivalent to a merchandising firm's cost of goods purchased. Therefore, the option "B" is correct.

The cost of goods sold is measured with the help of the cost of goods purchased. So, option <em>A</em> is incorrect. After adding the costs of goods manufactured with the beginning finished goods inventory, we can get the costs of goods available for sale. Therefore, <em>C</em><em>, </em><em>D</em><em>, </em>and<em> </em><em>E</em> cannot be the answer.
