Answer:

B

Explanation:

The value of tax shield is simply given as corporate tax rate times the cost of debt times the market value of debt.

If the debt is constant and perpetual, the company’s tax shield depends only on the corporate tax rate and the value of debt. Then the present value of tax shield equals the discounted value of debt

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Positive reinforcement and punishment.

Explanation:

In the Operant Conditioning Method proposed by B.F. Skinner (1904-1990), positive reinforcement refers to the set of actions individuals do to increase the behavior of other individuals. On the other hand, positive punishment aims to decrease behaviors in individuals by prompting undesirable stimuli.

Thus, <em>Jim is implementing positive reinforcement through incentives for workers meeting certain corporate goals and positive punishment by withholding those incentives from employees who get late, take long breaks or act unprofessionally</em>.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

$5.31

Explanation:

Earnings per share = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding

<em>where,</em>

<u>Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock is :</u>

Net Income                                                                       $650,000

Less Preference Stock dividend                                       ($71,000)

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock      $579,000

<em>and</em>

<u>Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding :</u>

Common Stocks at Beginning outstanding                                  100,000

Stocks Sold at Weighted Average (18,000 / 2)                                9,000

Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding    109,000

therefore,

Earnings per share = $579,000 ÷  109,000

                                = $5.31

The 2021 basic earnings per share is $5.31.

A study by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) examined the responsiveness of consumers to changes in gasoline price
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Gasoline consumption will decrease by a small amount.

Explanation:

A coefficient of elasticity of less than one indicates that demand is inelastic.

Inelastic demand means that there's little or no change in quantity demanded when there's a change in the price of a product.

Quantity demanded has little or no sensitivity to changes in price.

If the coefficient of elasticity is greater than one, demand is elastic.

Elastic demand is when a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.

If the coefficient of elasticity were equal to one, it means that demand is unit elastic.

Unit elastic demand means a change in price leads to the same proportional change on quantity demanded.

I hope my answer helps you

Historically, demand has averaged 1447 units per week with a standard deviation of 715. The company currently has 2855 units in
Alik [6]

Answer:

c. 97.558%

Explanation:

Options are <em>"A. 50.0.% B. 2.442% C. 97.558% D.197.0% E. 47,442%"</em>

Mean = μ = 1447

Standard deviation = σ = 715

Observed value = X = 2855

Using z-score formula, Z = (X - μ) / σ

Z = (2855 - 1447) / 715

Z = 1.97

P(Z<1.97) = 0.97558

P(Z<1.97) = 97.558%

So,  the probability of a stock-out is 97.558%.

Gnom [1K]
