Answer:

O Compound interest pays interest both on the principal and the interest earned in each period.

Explanation:

Compound interest is preferred as it measures the interest on the principal amount and the accrued interest. In the compounding interest, the interest i.e. earned should be added to the principal in order to create the new principal amount. The interest earned at the closing of every year should be more than the last period as the principal amount rises at the starting of the period

Also, the interest earned via the compound interest should be grown much faster as we compared to the fixed rate interest

Therefore the last option is correct

Comet Company is owned equally by Pat and his sister Pam, each of whom hold 100 shares in the company. Comet redeems 50 of Pam's

forsale [732]

Answer:

Comet's E&P will decrease by $50,000 due to the exchange.

Explanation:

50 of Pam's shares are worth 50 x $1,000 = $50,000, since the corporation is redeeming them, it will do so by decreasing its earnings and profits (retained earnings account).

Generally when larger corporations buy back stocks (AKA treasury stocks), they will credit cash and debit treasury stocks, but since Pam's stocks are being retired, they are not going to be held as treasury stocks, therefore E&P must decrease.
