Answer:

     = 3%

Explanation:

<em>Dividend yield is the proportion of a share a price that is earned as dividend. In other words, it is the dividend paid as a percentage of the share price.</em>

Dividend yield = DPS/Share price  ×  100

The share price can be determined using the P/E ratio as follows:

<em>Share price = P/E ×  EPS</em>

<em>Earnings per share (EPS</em>) = $13 million/ 2 million

                                        = $6.5 per share

<em>Share price</em> = 10 × $6.5 = $65

<em>Dividend paid (Dividend per share) = Payout ratio × EPS</em>

                          = 30% × $6.5

                         = $1.95 per share

Dividend yield = DPS/Share price  ×  100

                        = 1.95/65  ×  100

                       = 3%

  Cr Cash                    $4,000

(to capitalized the cost of wire electricity and installation to put the purchased machine in a ready-to-use stage).  

Explanation:

- According to the information, all the expenses relating to the purchase of used machine are in cash. Thus, Cash is credited at the total amount of $182,000, in which $178,000 is credited in 2nd January to record the purchased price and the other $4,000 (2,840 + 1,160) is credited in 3rd January.

- Under GAAP, the recorded costs of a purchased fixed asset should included all the costs incurred which are necessary to bring the fixed asset to a ready-to-use stage. As wire electricity cost & cost for securing the machine in its position are all necessary for the machine's operation, these costs should be capitalized.
