Answer:

C

Explanation:

Trade off can be expressed in terms of opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost or implicit is the cost of the option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.

Kyoko has limited time so she has to choose between three activities. If she chooses one sport, she would not be able to partake in the other activities. So, she is trading off biking or running for swimming.

Trade off occurs because resources are limited and wants are unlimited.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Del is expected to prepaid to pay $535.62 in prepaid interest at the closing.

Explanation:

The down payment of 15% is $250000*15%=$37500

The balance of mortgage net of down payment=$250000-$37500

                                                                               =$212500

Interest yearly=$212500*5.75%=$12,218.75

A year interest divided by 365days give one day interest.

A day interest=$12218.75/365=$33.48

Total interest  to pay at closing=16days*$33.48

                                                     =$535.62

The number of days was 16 because July has 31days and deal was closed on 15th,hence 31 minus 15 gives 16.

ollegr [7]

Answer:

a. $8.33

$1.95

b.$136,500

Explanation:

The computation of earnings per share and the common dividends per share is shown below:-

a. Earning per share = Earnings Available to Common Stockholders ÷ Number of Shares of Common Stock Outstanding

= $178,300 ÷ 21,400

= $8.33

Dividends per Share = $41,800 ÷ 21,400

= $1.95

b. Increase in retained earnings = Operating Profit (EBIT) - Interest expense - Taxes - Preferred dividends - Common dividends

= $307,000 - $32,000 - $65,100 + $31,600 + $41,800
