Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": retained earnings.

Explanation:

Retained earnings are the portion of the companies net earnings that it does not payout to shareholders as dividends. The company keeps this money and reinvests it in the business or uses it to pay out part of the company's debt. The retained earnings are reported in the Balance Sheet in the section of shareholder's equity. The formula to calculate the retained earnings is:

RE = Net Income (or Loss) − C − S

where:

  • C=Cash dividends
  • S=Stock dividends

A bottling operation has a mean fill level of 10.01 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.25 ounces. Random samples of 20 bottle
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The upper limit is 10.1

The lower limit is 9.91

Explanation:

Given that:

The mean fill level (μ) = 10.01 ounces,

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.25 ounces

Number of sample bottles (n) = 20

The limits of the sample mean = 92% = 0.92

α = 1 - 0.92 = 0.08

\frac{\alpha}{2}=0.04

The z value of 0.04 is the same as the z value of 0.46 (0.5 - 0.04). From the probability distribution table:

z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=z_{0.04} = 1.75

The margin of error (e) is given by:

e=z_{0.04}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }=1.75*\frac{0.25}{\sqrt{20} }  =0.1

The upper limit = μ + e = 10.01 + 0.1= 10.1

The lower limit = 10.01 - 0.1 = 9.91

Answer:

c. $6.03

Explanation:

<u>Earnings available to common shareholders</u>

Net Income                                                             $6,000,000

Less: Preference dividend                                     <u>$200,000   </u>

Net Income available to common shareholders  <u>$5,800,000</u>

<u />

Number of Common shares = 950,000

Equivalent common shares for convertible 5% Bonds = 10,450. [Number of bonds = 2,100,000/1,000 = 2,100 shares. Equivalent common shares = 2,100 * 5 = 10,500 shares]

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding = 950,000 + 10,500 = 960,500

Earnings per share = Earnings available to common shareholders / Weighted average number of common shares outstanding

Earnings per share = $5,800,000 / 960,500

Earnings per share = 6.038521603331598

Earnings per share = $6.04
