Explanation:
The Rico should decrease retained earnings by the amount of the dividend is declaration date.

Answer:
Firm should not shut down, as it is able to cover its Average Variable Cost
Explanation:
Perfect Competition firms in Short Run : The firms produce even if their average revenue (price) < their average total costs (AC). They continue production until Average variable cost (AVC) ≥ per unit price (P) i.e average revenue (AR). This is called Shut Down Point. P lower beyond AVC implies that firm won't continue even in short run.
Given : Variable Cost (VC) = 500 ; Revenue (R) = 510
Average Variable Costs & Average Revenue are variable costs & revenue, per unit quantity. AVC = VC / Q ; AR (P) = R / Q
R i.e 510 > VC i.e 500
So, R/ Q i.e AR is also > VC / Q i.e AVC
Since AVC > AR (P), firm should not shut down

Answer:
The present value of the following series of cash flows discounted at 12 percent is:
$171,890
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Discount rate = 12%
$40,000 now;
$50,000 at the end of the first year;
$0 at the end of year the second year;
$60,000 at the end of the third year; and
$70,000 at the end of the fourth year
Future Value Discount Factor Present Value
$40,000 1 $40,000
$50,000 0.893 $44,650
$0 0.797 $0
$60,000 0.712 $42,720
$70,000 0.636 $44,520
Total present value $171,890
b) The present value is the discounted cash flow from series of future cash flows. The discount factor is applied to the individual cash flows, based on the number of years before the cash flow occurs.
