Korolek [52]

Answer:

$7.50

Explanation:

Earnings per share = Earning attributable to holders of Common Stock ÷ Weighted Average Number of Common Stocks Outstanding

therefore,

Earnings per share = ($160,000 - $10,000) ÷ 20,000

                                = $7.50

thus,

The company's earnings per share on common stock is: $7.50

In 2008, 1 in approximately every 200 cars in the United States was stolen. Beth owns a car worth $20,000 and is considering pur
rjkz [21]

Answer:

A) The amount of the premium in fair insurance policy that replaces Beths car, must be equal to the probability or expectation of claim of car theft.

Therefore, the Premium amount = 20000 x (1/200)

= 20000 (0.005)

= $100

B) If an Insurance company charges 0.6% for replacing a stolen car, then the policy will cost beth:

20000* 0.6%

= 12,000/100

= $ 120  

C) To be risk-neutral means to be indifferent to the risk. This means that Beth would be indifferent. She most likely will be focused on maximizing value for money. In other words, she will NOT pay for the insurance policy in part b because part A provides her with the exact (or fair) premium for her insurance.

D) The moral hazard problem is this, people tend to become more careless with an insurance policy in place. This moral hazard arises form the knowledge that there is an insurance policy that caters to their risks.

As a matter of practice, therefore, insurance companies factor this increased risk into their premiums. Where the premium was supposed to be $100, they may charge $120.

In summary, it means that Beth most likely will move from becoming risk neutral to becoming (to a certain degree) more risk loving.

Cheers!
