The numerator of the return on common stockholders' equity is net income minus preferred dividends.
Option d
<u>Explanation:</u>
Return on common stockholders' equity which is also named as return on equity (ROE) ratio evaluates the accomplishment of a company in resulting income for the benefit of common stakeholders.
<em>Use of return on equity:</em>
- Isolates common equity returns
- Can be used to evaluate dividends
- Evaluates the use of capital by the management
It is calculated by income available for stockholders divided by the total number of common stock and is expressed or represented in percentage. Income available for common stockholders can be arrived by reducing preference dividends from Net income.
That is, 
Hence, net income minus preferred dividends is the right answer.
The correct answer is false.
It is false that the slope of the investment demand function indicates how sensitive investment is to changes in real interest rates. The 'steeper' the investment demand function, the less sensitive investment is to changes in the real rate of interest, all else constant.
We can say that the downward slope is the consequence of several reasons. For instance, the concept that money, its nominal value, is fixed. However, the real value of money depends on the level of prices. So the demand for money is related to the demand for it. The interest rate falls when the price level falls.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": more inelastic.
Explanation:
When its price changes, the supply, and demand for an inelastic good or service are not dramatically impacted. Whether the price of an inelastic product goes up or down, the buying habits of consumers remain roughly the same. <em>Prescription drugs, food, clothing, </em>and <em>gasoline</em> are common examples of inelastic goods.
Thus, <em>if the price of gasoline doubles tonight, that price would be considered more inelastic tomorrow compared to the current price until today than comparing the doubled price during the course of the upcoming two years</em>.
Answer:
10.64 years
Explanation:
To find the number of years , use this formula :
FV / PV = (1 + r) ^n
FV = Future value = $1 million
P = Present value = $560,000.
R = interest rate = 5.6%
N = number of years
$1,000,000 / $560,000 = (1.056)^n
1.785714 = (1.056)^n
Find the In of both sides
n = 10.64 years
The correct answer is B. Monopolistic competition
Explanation:
Monopolistic competition occurs when the producers of a product determine the price of it. Also, the products sold have differences, which means consumers do not consider one product can be substituted by another because the qualities, brand, appearance, etc. are different. This is the opposite of perfect competition, in which products are substitutes and price is determined by price and demand rather than producers.
Monopolistic competition occurs in the case presented because the chocolates sold by Jack are different from those sold by Mia, who uses attractive boxes. Also, due to this difference, Mia can set higher prices and still get more demand from consumers.
