Answer:

The multiple choices:

Earnings per share will remain the same since a stock dividend does not create an expense.

Earnings per share will increase because the dividend increases the value of the company.

Earnings per share will decrease because the number of shares outstanding will go up.

The impact cannot be determined without additional information on the new price per share.

The correct option is earnings per share will decrease because the number of shares outstanding will go up.

Explanation:

Initial EPS=earnings attributable to common stock/average weighted number of common stock

earnings attributable to common stock is $25,000,000

average weighted number of common stock is 10,000,000

Initial EPS=$25,000,000/10,000,000

                 =$2.5

EPS with 10% stock dividend :

average weighted number of common stock=10,000,000*(1+10%)

average weighted number of common stock=10,000,000*(1+0.1)

average weighted number of common stock=11,00,000

EPS with 10% stock dividend=$25,000,000/11,000,000

                                                  =$2.27

EPS reduced from $2.5 to $2.27 due to 10% stock dividend as there are more shares than  previously.

Is god real yes or no answer
dem82 [27]
There is no factual evidence to either. Modern Christianity is based off of faith, you gotta believe he’s real. And in most other religions their god/gods are real. The only “proof” is either miracles or visions. Which in most cases can’t always be proven true. I say yes, but only because I believe he is.

Marley designs and manufactures specialty furniture. She has a number of unique products but can only produce in limited quantit
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Marley could not meet a rapid rise in demand

Explanation:

  • A marketing penetration strategy means that a business deliberately reduces the product offered to the market. The purpose of setting a lower price is to entice consumers to buy the product, thereby creating demand for it.
  • The penetration strategy discourages other companies from entering the market. Marketers who use this strategy want to establish a large market share for a product in a short period of time.
  • Mary cannot implement a market entry strategy because of limited production capacity. This approach increases production demand in a short period of time. Mary cannot afford the increase in demand at the moment.
