I believe the answer is: had to make up the difference.

when you buy a stock on margin, you would technically borrowing money from the broker to buy stocks with current value price and would receive it in future stock value.

If the value of the stock increased in the future, you can cover the loan with percentage of the profit and receive the remaining. If the value fall, you had to make up for the difference.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

$16.5 per share; $6 per share

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the dividends per share payable to preferred and common, respectively

DIVIDENDS PER SHARE PAYABLE TO PREFERRED

First step

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders

= Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock × 5.50% × Number of years

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= 16000 × 100 × 5.50% × 3

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000

Second step

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= Total dividend paid to preferred ÷ No. of outstanding shares

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000 ÷ 16,000 shares

Total dividend per share paid to Preferred Stockholders= $16.5 per share

DIVIDENDS PER SHARE PAYABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS

First step

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders

= Outstanding preferred stock × Par value of preferred stock × 5.50% × Number of years

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= 16000 × 100 × 5.50% × 3

Total dividend paid to Preferred Stockholders= $264,000

Second step

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= (Dividend paid in the current year - Total dividend paid to preferred) ÷ Common stock outstanding shares

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= ($420,000 - $264,000) ÷ 26,000

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= $156,000 ÷ 26,000 shares

Total dividend per share paid to common Stockholders= 6 per share

Therefore the dividends per share payable to preferred and common, respectively is:

$16.5 per share; $6 per share

Explanation:

1) the sales revenue will be the present value of all the lease payments and the residual value of the asset or the bargain-option

Present Value of Annuity-due

$C \times \displaystyle \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate}(1+rate) = PV\\$

C 7,000

time 8

rate 0.03

$7000 \times \displaystyle \frac{1-(1+0.03)^{-8} }{0.03}(1+0.03) = PV\\$

PV $50,611.9807

PRESENT VALUE OF LUMP SUM

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 14,000.00

time 7.00

rate 0.03

$\frac{14000}{(1 + 0.03)^{7} } = PV$

PV 11,383.28

PV of the lease: 50,611.98 + 11,051.73 = 61,995.26

2) the lessor will have a lease receivable while the lessee has a lease payable.

Actual sales volume for a period is 5,000 units. Budgeted sales volume is 4,500. Actual selling price per unit is $15 and budget

dlinn [17]

If the actual sales volume is 5000 units,budgeted sales volume is 4500, actual selling price be $15 per unit and the budgeted price per unit be $15.75 per unit then the sales price variance is -$3750.

Given that actual sales volume is 5000 units,budgeted sales volume is 4500 units, actual selling price be $15 per unit and budgeted price per unit be $15.75 per unit.

We are required to find the sales price variance of the data.

Actual Sales volume = 5,000 units

Budgeted sales volume = 4,500

Actual selling price per unit = $15

Planned selling price = $15.75

So, calculation of the sales price variance is given below:-

Sales variance =Actual quantity sold × (actual selling price - planned selling price)

=5000*(15-15.75)

=5000*(-0.75)

=-$3750

Hence if the actual sales volume is 5000 units,budgeted sales volume is 4500, actual selling price be $15 per unit and the budgeted price per unit be $15.75 then the sales price variance is -$3750.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Given:

Implicit Cost = $65,000

Total revenue = $150,000

Explicit cost = $85,000

Here, we'll compute the economic profit for the first year as :

Economic profit = Total revenue - (Explicit cost + Implicit Cost)

Economic profit = $150,000 - ($85,000 + $65,000)

Economic profit = $0

∴ Tom’s economic profit for his first year in business will be $0

The correct option is (a).

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Total Dollar return on Investment = $85

Explanation:

Coupon rate = 7%

Coupon Payment ($1,000×7%) = $70

Selling Price of the bond ($1,000×102.5) = $1025

Today’s selling price of the bond ($1,000×104%) =$1,040

$1,040 - $1025 + $70 = $85

Total Dollar return on Investment = $85
