Answer:
The amount of dividends distributed to preferred stockholders in 2017 is $10000.
Explanation:
The preferred stock is non cumulative which means that if the company is unable to pay dividends on preferred stock in a certain year, the dividend for that year will not be accumulated and will not be paid in the next year.
Thus, the company only paid a dividend of $2700 in 2016 and the remaining dividends will not be payable by the company in year 2017.
The dividend on each share of preferred stock per year is = 10 * 0.05 = $0.5 per share
The number of shares of preferred stock are 20000.
The total dividends that will be paid to preferred stock holders in 2017 is = 0.5 * 20000 = $10000
Thus, out of the $27000 dividends of 2017, $10000 was distributed to preferred stockholders.
Answer:
295 units
Explanation:
The cost -volume-profits CVP concepts calculate the breakeven point by dividing fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit.
i.e., Breakeven point = Fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit.
For this company,
Fixed costs are $177,000
Contribution margin per unit
= selling price - variable costs.
=$1250 -$650
=$600
Breakeven point = $177,000 / $600
=295 units
The answer would be between A and D.
Answer:
Multiplier = 3.33
Explanation:
Investment / Spending Multiplier denotes increase in Income multiple times increase in causal Investment.
Multiplier = Change in Income / Change in Investment = 1 / 1 - MPC
<em>M</em> = ΔY/ΔI = 1/ (1-MPC)
At Equilibrium, Investment = Savings = 750. Change in Investment = 900 - 750 = 150. Change in Income = 500.
M = 500/150 = 3.33
3.33 = 1/(1-MPC)
MPC = 0.70
