Answer:

The authorized shares 213,000

The issued shares 141,000

The outstanding shares 125,000

Explanation:

The authorized shares are the maximum number of shares that can be issued by the company as spelt out in its charter which is 213,000.

The number of shares issued to the public from its inception till date is 141,000 shares, in other words, that is its issued shares.

The outstanding shares is the number of shares currently held by investors in the company's shares, in essence, outstanding shares are the issued shares minus the shares already bought back( repurchased from shareholders)

Outstanding shares=141,000-16,000.

Outstanding shares=125,000

Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. $9,338

b. 0.363

Explanation:

a. Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost

Where Sales = $25,700

Variable Cost = Food & Packaging + Payroll + 40% x General, Selling and Administrative expenses

V.C. = 8,982 + 6,500 + 40% * 3,700

V.C = 8,982 + 6,500 + 1,480

= $16,362

Therefore, Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost  

= $25,700 - $16,362

=$9,338

b. McDonald's contribution margin ratio  = Contribution Margin / Sales

= $9,338 / $25,700

= 0.363

Alika [10]

Answer:

$5,000

Explanation:

Money received as scholarship and used to pay for tuition or related expenses is not included in the gross income. So the $1,000 scholarship from the Thespian Club and the $4,000 scholarship from the Elks Lodge are not taxable. The only taxable income that Henry earned is the $5,000 that he was paid for being a dorm supervisor.
