Answer: The higher the risk, the higher the return.
Returns from an investment refers to the gains or losses over a specified period, and is quoted as percentage.
Risk refers to the possibility or the chance that the actual return that is earned is greater than or less than the return expected by the investor. Thus, uncertainty is another name for risk.
If the returns from an investment are certain, the risk involved is low. When risk is low, the returns are also low. For e.g. the return from a T-bill is low because the risk of default is zero, since the government can print money to fund its debt.
The higher the level of risk involved, the greater the potential for a higher return.
Answer:
preferred stockholders received $15,000 during the first 3 years
- $2,000 in the first year
- $6,000 in the second year
- $7,000 in the third year
common shareholders received $25,000 in dividends during the third year.
Explanation:
preferred stock = 1,000 shares x $100 par value x 5% = $5,000
common stock = 10,000 shares at $10 par value
dividends declared and paid during the first 3 years:
year dividends
1 $2,000
2 $6,000
3 $32,000
preferred stockholders should have received $5,000 per year x 3 years = $15,000. Preferred stockholders must be paid first, and their payment is fixed. If the dividends are not enough to pay the total amount, the remaining amount should be paid next year.
- $2,000 in the first year
- $6,000 in the second year
- $7,000 in the third year
common shareholders received $32,000 - $7,000 = $25,000 in dividends during the third year.
Answer:
Monthly factory overhead flexible budget
9000 HRS 10000 HRS 11000 HRS
Variable Overhead 40,500 45,000 49,500
Fixed Overheads 60,000 60,000 60,000
Total Overhead Costs 100,000 105,000 109,500
Explanation:
Fixed Costs do not change with the level of activity and thus remain the same for activity of 9,000 : 10,000 and 11,000 hours whilst variable overheads vary with the level of activity.
