vitfil [10]

Answer:

If the money wage rate increased from $40.00 to 45.24 and hour and consumer prices rose by 16%, we would expect _______ people to try to find a job and employed people to want to work _______ hours.

a. more; longer.

The____ would _____.

b. quantity of labor supplied; increase.

Explanation:

Generally, when wage rates increase, this will led to an increase in the inflation rate. The problem is what happens if wages increase less than the inflation rate. This means that real wages will actually decrease once we adjust them to inflation. This will cause more people trying to get a job or working longer hours just to be able to pay for the same amount of goods as before.

In this example, the wage rate increased by 13.1%, but the inflation rate increased by 16%, so real wages decreased.

Stock prices tend to ignore unexpected changes in dividend payments. Companies prefer to cut dividend payments rather than borro
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.

Explanation:

Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.

Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.

Nady [450]

Answer:

6.1%

Explanation:

As per given data

                                                             Proposal X     Proposal Y

Investment                                           ​$900,000      ​$488,000

Useful life                                             ​9 years           9 years

Annual net cash inflows for 9 years ​  $130,000       ​$84,000

Residual value  ​                                   ​ $42,000        $0

Depreciation method                          Straight-line   Straight-line

Required rate of return ​                       15%                 ​12%

Accounting rate of return is the ratio of average net income of a project and the average investment made in the project.

Accounting rate of return = Average Net income / Average Investment

As net cash inflows are given we need to deduct the depreciation from the cash flows to arrive at the net income for the period. As all cash flows are constant so, the average value will be equal to the single years value.

Average net income = Net cash inflows - Depreciation = Net cash inflows - ( Cost of Asset - Residual value ) / Useful life of asset = $84,000 - ( $488,000 - $0) / 9 = $84,000 - $54,222 = $29,778

Average Investment  = $488,000

Placing Values in the formula

Accounting rate of return = $29,778 / $488,000 = 6.1%
