Answer:

a. $0.30

Explanation:

Basic Earning Per Share (BEPS) = Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stock.

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock calculation :

Net income after tax for the period                            $160,000

Less Preference Dividend                                           ($10,000)

Earnings Attributable to Holders of Common Stock $150,000

Weighted Average Number of Common Stock calculation :

Outstanding common shares                                      500,000

Therefore,

Basic Earning Per Share (BEPS) = $150,000 ÷ 500,000

                                                     = $0.30

Suppose that a jewelry store found that when it increased prices by 10 percent, sales revenue increased by 3 percent. Which of t
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is Demand is inelastic, but not perfectly.

Explanation:

Inelastic demand is that demand that is not very sensitive to a change in price. In this way, before a variation in the price the quantity demanded reacts in a less than proportional way. For example, if the price increases by 10% and in response the quantity demanded is reduced by less than 10%, then the demand is said to be inelastic.

The elasticity of demand, also known as the elasticity-price of demand, is defined as the percentage change of the quantity demanded before a percentage change in the price.

pychu [463]

Answer:

Increase in income= $2,965.6

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Gruden Company produces golf discs which it normally sells to retailers for $7 each. The cost of manufacturing 23,600 golf discs is:

Materials $ 12,036

Labor 35,400

Variable overhead 23,128

Fixed overhead 47,200

Total $117,764

McGee Corporation offers Gruden $4.91 per disc for 4,930 discs. If Gruden accepts the offer, its fixed overhead will increase from $47,200 to $53,700 due to the purchase of a new imprinting machine.

Total variable cost= (12,036 + 35,400 + 23,128)= 70,564

Unitary variable cost= 70,564/23,600= $2.99

Increase in fixed costs= $6,500

Increase in income= (4930*4.91) - (4930*2.99) - 6500= $2,965.6
