Answer:

an acquisition

Explanation:

An acquisition is defined as a corporation being purchased by another corporation, through the selling of its stocks or the selling of its assets. An acquisition is really the fastest way of making a business grow, you just buy another company. During the last three decades the number of mergers and acquisitions has been steadily growing as multinationals consolidate their power and presence around the world. Not only have US multinationals acquired new companies but also foreign companies have acquired American companies, e.g. Fiat acquired Chrysler, Haier acquired General Electric.

kondor19780726 [428]

Number of shares: 410,000

Share price: $47

IF THE COMPANY USES STRAIGHT VOTING:

STEP 1: If the company uses straight voting, then the number of shares it should own would be half of the shares plus one share, in order to guarantee that the enough votes are received to win the election.

Number of shares needed = (Number of shares available for voting ÷ 2) + 1

Number of shares needed = (410,000 ÷ 2) + 1

Number of shares needed = 205,001

STEP 2: Total cost will be the product of share price and number of shares needed.

Total Cost = Share Price × Number of shares needed

Total Cost = $ 47 × 205,001

Total Cost = $ 9,635,047

<u>It will cost $9,635,047 if the company uses straight voting.</u>

IF THE COMPANY USES CUMULATIVE VOTING :

STEP 1: If the company uses cumulative voting, you need 1/(N+1) percent of stock plus one share to get maximum number of votes to win the election.

Percent of stock needed = [1 ÷ (N + 1)] * 100

Percent of stock needed = [1 ÷ (3 + 1)]* 100

Percent of stock needed = (1 ÷ 4) * 100

Percent of stock needed = 25%

So the number of shares purchased = (410,000 × 25%)

Number of shares purchased = 102,500

Total Cost = Number of shares purchased × Share Price

Total Cost = 102,500 × $47

Total Cost = $4,817,500

It will cost $4,817,500 if the company uses cumulative voting.

kherson [118]

Answer:

A. profit.

Explanation:

We know,

Net Income (profit) = Sales revenue - the cost of goods sold and operating expenses

Here,

The Ice Cream shop made $100,000 on sales revenue. However, the expenses of the shop include supplies and factory space, i.e., rent expense is $75,000.

Therefore, Net Income (profit) = $100,000 - $75,000 = $25,000

Since the sales revenue exceeds the expenses, the company gets a profit. So, <em>option A</em> is the answer.

Cramer Corp. issued $20,000,000 of 5-year, 9% bonds at a market (effective) interest rate of 10%, receiving cash of $19,227,757.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The journal entry is as follows:

 Interest expense   $961,388.00  

                           Discount on issue of bond  $61,388.00

                           Cash                                          $900,000.00

Explanation:

In order to prepare the journal entry we have to calculate first the interest expense and the cash.

Therefore, Interest expense= ($19,227,757×10%×6/12)=$961,388.00

Cash=$20,000,000×9%×6/12= $900,000

By difference then, the discount on bond payable=$961,388-$900,000

                                                                             =$61,388.

     

Hence, the journal entry is as follows:

 Interest expense   $961,388.00  

                           Discount on issue of bond  $61,388.00

                           Cash                                          $900,000.00
