jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a. 116.9 and the inflation rate was 16.9%

Explanation:

<u>Definition</u>

Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a statistical measure that is constructed using a weighted average market basket of consumer goods and services produced by a household.

CPI = (Cost of market basket ₓ / Cost of market basket ₓ₁) * 100

where x = present year(2014) and x1 = base year(2012)

CPI = (90/77) * 100

CPI = 116.88

CPI = 116.9 (to 1 decimal place)

Inflation =<u>Current year basket cost - Base year basket cost</u>    * 100

                                    Base year basket cost

Inflation = <u>90-77</u>  * 100

                   77

Inflation = 16.88

Inflation = 16.9% ( to 1 decimal place)

There are no priority shares in the components of stockholders' equity. Hence option D is wrong.

Investment security​ does not give any dividends. So option E is wrong.

Option B is correct because preference shares give a fixed rate of dividend.

selling price of the bond = 25 * PVIFA(3%,52) + 1,000 * PVIF(3%,52)

selling price of the bond= 25 * 26.1662 + 1,000 * 0.2150

The bond will sell for the amount of $869.17

The 20% off sale is a better deal than the $200 rebate or $150 coupon for the $1,500 dining set. The Porters budgeted $1,250 for
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:20% off is better and it is the only offer which is under the budget.

Explanation:Given,

The original cost of the dining set = $ 1,500,

If there is a off of 20%,

Then the discount on dinning table = 20% of 1500

= $ 300

So, the final amount of the dinning table after 20% off = 1500 - 300 = 1200 < 1250

Thus, it under the budget.

Now, in $ 200 rebate,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 200 = $ 1300 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.

While, In $150 coupon,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 150 = $ 1350 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.
