Explanation:
The total dividend to be declared in 2016 = Preference dividend outstanding + common stock holder dividend.
Burkert company has not declared any preference dividend in 2014 and 2015. The preference dividends are cumulative and the company has to pay prior years dividends also. The annual preference dividend amounts $16,000 (4,000 shares * $100 par value * 4% preferred stock)
The cumulative preference dividend for 3 years 2014, 2015 and 2016 will be $16,000 * 3 years = $48,000
The common stock dividend that a company must declare in order for every shareholder to receive atleast $1 is $50,000.

Explanation:
Systemic risk is measured by beta. The higher beta is, the higher the systemic risk and the higher the compensation demanded for by investors
According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)
14.48 = 3.42 + b(11.6 - 3.42)
14.48 = 3.42 + b8.18
14.48 - 3.42 = 8.18b
11.06/8.18 = 1.35
Answer:
Hugh's statement is an attempt to reduce his frustration about buying the product at a more expensive price.
Explanation:
Human beings always try to find a reason to justify their actions, even if that particular action was a bad one.
Hugh bought a calculator for $125 from one store and the next week, he saw the same calculator being advertised for a significantly lower amount. He felt cheated and he immediately blamed himself for being cheated when there was a better deal out there. As a way to make himself feel better about the ordeal, he tells himself that the product quality from the second store is always known to be of an inferior quality.
This is a defence mechanism to cover or try to hide our frustrations and anger at things not going our way so we invent something that will make us immediately feel better about ourselves and our decision.
