Answer:

His order may never execute and,

He could receive more , but not less, than $14 a share

Explanation:

A limit order places a pre specified price for buying or selling a security. Such a mechanism is used to limit or restrict the extent of losses the investor may suffer.

For example, an investor is desirous of purchasing the stock of XYZ Co whose current market price is $100. The investor places a limit that his buy order shall only be executed once the stock price touches $90 or lower than that.

In this case, the moment market price touches $90, the order shall be executed and the purchase shall be complete. The flip side being, the order may never be executed if the price never reaches the limit prescribed.

In the given case, Sam placed a sell limit order wherein 500 shares of stock would be sold once the price reaches $14 or higher. So in this case, if the price does reach $14, he would at least receive $14 or higher, but not lower than $14 since below this price, the order will not be executed.

Also, there is no guarantee that the order will be executed since it depends upon the share price reaching $14, which may or may not happen.

Answer:

6.32%

Explanation:

Bonds yield amount = $1,030 × 6.14% = $63.242

Coupon rate = Bond yield amount ÷ Par value of the bond = $63.242 ÷ $1,000 = 0.063242, or 6.32%

The following is the general ledger for ABC Company as of December 31, 20X1. Use this information to answer questions (1) throug

sweet [91]

Answer:

What is the amount of gross profit to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold

= $54,200 - 15,100

= $39,100

What is the amount of operating income (EBIT) to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

EBIT = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses

We have the following operating expenses:

Salaries expense $7,100

Rent expense = $4,900

Supplies expense = $1,300

Utilities expense = $4,800

Depreciation expense = $2,500

Total operating expenses = $20,600

Now we substract this figure from the gross profit we found above

EBIT = $39,100 - 20,600

= $18,500

What is the amount of earnings before taxes (EBT) to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

EBT = Sales Revenues + Interest Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses - Non-Operating Expenses.

EBT = $54,200 + $1,400 - $15,100 - $20,600 - $2,100

= $17,800

What is the amount of net income to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

Net Income = Sales Revenues + Interest Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses - Non-Operating Expenses - Tax Expense

We simply substract the Tax Expense ($3,700), from the EBT.

Net Income = $17,800 - $3,700

= $14,100

Which of the following distribution systems offers speed and reliability when emergency supplies are needed overseas?A. railroad

erik [133]

<h3>Hello there!</h3>

Your question asks which is a fast and reliable source for emergency supplies that are needed overseas.

<h3>Answer: B). Airfreight</h3>

The reason why answer choice "B). Airfreight" is the correct answer because this is the distribution system that is the quickest to get things overseas.

When you think about going overseas, what do you use? A plane. When you think about going somewhere international, what do you use? A plane. That is the same concept when you're sending things overseas, you would use some sort of air craft to get it overseas.

An airfreight is a really big air craft that can transport tons and tons of supplies, items, etc. An airfreight can go over the ocean and to its destination very quickly. The plane can go hundreds and hundreds of miles per hour for a long period of time. This is why people would use an air freight to deliver emergency supplies overseas.

<h3>Why the other answer choices are incorrect:</h3>

Answer choice "A). railroads" is incorrect because railroads can't go overseas. Have you seen railroads built over the ocean? Absolutely not. Therefore, trains can't go over the ocean because there's no railroads built over the ocean. This is why this answer choice is incorrect.

Answer choice "C). trucking" is incorrect because there is no road over the ocean, therefore the travel path would be cut off for the trucks. In order for the trucks to go overseas, they would need to be transported on a boat, in which would take a long time. This is why this answer choice is incorrect.

Answer choice "D). pipelines" is incorrect because pipelines don't extend to places that are overseas, and pipelines would not be a safe thing to use to get emergency equipment distributed. This is why this answer choice is incorrect.

Answer choice "E). waterways" is incorrect because water ways are just water, large bodies of water to be exact. There is no transportation system in waterways, therefore making this answer choice incorrect.
