Answer:

$3420057

Explanation:

the company uses cumulative voting, the board of directors are all elected at once. You will need 1/(N+ 1) percent of the stock (plus one share) to guarantee election, where N is the number of seats up for election. So, the percentage of the company’s stock you need will be:Percent of stock needed = 1 / (N+ 1)Percent of stock needed =

1 / (3 + 1)Percent of stock needed = .25 or 25%So, the number of shares you need to purchase is:Number of shares to purchase = (240,000 × .25) + 1Number of shares to purchase = 60,001 And the total cost to you will be the shares needed times the price per share, or: Total cost = 60,001  $57Total cost =$ 3420057

DerKrebs [107]
<span>Let us first find out how much of the prepaid subscriptions has been used up during the reporting year. $1548 is for 36 months. So the monthly rate of subscription charges will be 1548/36 = 43. During the reporting year, subscription charges are paid only for 9 months( from April to December) So the amount to be debited to subscription charges = 43 * 9 = 387. Subscription charges will be debited with $ 387 and prepaid subscriptions account will be credited with the same amount. The remaining amount, 1548-387=1161, will remain in prepaid subscriptions account as a debit balance.</span>

Cash dividends declared = $20,000

Dividends paid = $15,000
