Answer:

Net proceeds to Ebay = $ 58,590,000.

Explanation:

An Initial Public Offering(IPO) refers to the sales of new block of shares to the general public by a company for the purpose of raising equity capital.

This exercise is always promoted by a third-party company referred to as an underwriter for a fee. The underwriter adds value to the capital raising share offering by contracting to buy up unsold share units should they be undersubscribed. The underwriting fee is a cost to the issuing company.

The net share capital due to the company is computed as follows

<em>Gross share proceeds - underwriting fee</em>

= (3,500,000 × $18.00) - (3,500,000× $1.26)

=$ 58,590,000.

Net proceeds to Ebay = $ 58,590,000.

The closing price of $44.88 is a distracter and should be ignored.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

FALSE.

Explanation:

When a consumer products company produces inexpensive goods in underdeveloped markets, then repackages them as cost-effective innovations for Western buyers. This is not an example of glocalization because glocalization is the term which is the combination of two terms; localization and globalization. In glocalization, global products are offered to the customers with the local modifications. For example, Pizza Hut has launched Tikka Pizza, Behari Pizza and Achari Pizza in India and Pakistan, which is the perfect example of glocalization. Putting it simply we can say that "thinking globally and acting locally."

Dominik [7]
<span>Out of the prepaid rent of $2800, $700, the actual rent for the month of January, has to be debited to rent account and prepaid rent account will be credited. Now the prepaid rent account will show a smaller figure(2800-700 = 2100) This is the amount that will be shown in the prepaid rent account in the balance sheet. Of course it will be shown as an asset since it has a debit balance.</span>

On April 30, 2017, Tilton Products purchased machinery for $88,000. The useful life of this machinery is estimated at 8 years, w
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

$6,666.67 and $10,000

Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for the year 2017 and 2018 is shown below:

= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (useful life)  

= ($88,000 - $8,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= ($80,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= $10,000

Since the machinery is purchased on April 30 and we assume the books are closed on December 31 so the number of months calculated is 8 months

Therefore for the year 2017 the depreciation expense is

= $10,000 × 8 months ÷ 12 months

= $6,666.67

And, for the year 2018 the depreciation expense is same i.e $10,000

A company has $10,710 available per month for advertising. Newspaper ads cost $180 each and can't run more than 22 times per mon
True [87]

Answer:

22 radio advertisements will be used.

Explanation:

<u>Note</u>: A similar complete question is as follow as the question provided is incomplete <em>"A company has $11,970 available per month for advertising. Newspaper ads cost $110 each and can't run more than 25 times per month. Radio ads cost $410 each and can't run more than 32 times per month at this price. Each newspaper ad reaches 5950 potential customers, and each radio ad reaches 7100 potential customers. The company wants to maximize the number of ad exposures to potential customers. Use n n for number of Newspaper advertisements and r r for number of Radio advertisements . Maximize P"</em>

Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in newspaper advertising =  5950 / 110 = 54.09

Number of potential customers that can be reached due to each dollar spent in Radio advertisements = 7100 / 410 = 17.32.

As the number of potential customers reached by each dollar spent is more from the newspaper advertising, we will use all the newspaper advertising opportunities before going for the radio advertisements. So, we will choose to have 25 newspaper advertisements in the month.

The cost of 25 newspaper advertisements = 25*110  = $2750.

Amount left = $11970 - $2750 = $9220.

Number of radio advertisements possible in this budget = 9220 / 410 = 22.48

Hence, 22 radio advertisements will be used.
