Uma has been given the task of arranging for five-day conference

Skinner Company began business on June 30, 2018. At that time, it issued 18,000 shares of $50 par value, 6% cumulative preferred

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

2018

Preferred Dividend = $54,000

Common Stockholders = $9,000

2019

Preferred Dividend arrears =$54,000

Common Stockholders = $0

2020

Preferred Dividend = $54,000

Common Stockholders = $270,000

Explanation:

Preferred stockholders has an advantage that they are paid first when there is any dividend is announced. The residual dividend will be divided into the common stockholders. Any prior years due dividend and current years dividend associated with preferred share will be paid first.

As per given data

Preferred shares = 18,000 x $50 = $900,000

Preferred Dividend = $900,000 x 6% = $54,000

2018

Dividend Declared = $63,000

Dividend Allocated to Common Stockholders = Dividend Declared - Preferred Dividend = $63,000 - $54,000 = $9,000

2019

Dividend Declared = $0

Preferred Dividend Arrears = $54,000

2020

Dividend Declared = $378,000

Preferred Dividend Arrears = $54,000

Dividend Allocated to Common Stockholders = Dividend Declared - Preferred Dividend - Preferred Dividend Arrears = $378,000 - $54,000 - $54,000 = $270,000

Which of the following statements about the price elasticity of demand is correct The absolute value of the elasticity of demand

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Demand is more elastic in the long run than it is in the short run

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Demand is more elastic in the long run than it is in the short run because in the long run consumers have more time to search for suitable substitutes.

When the absolute value of elasticity of demand is less than one, demand is inelastic.

When the absolute value of elasticity of demand is equal to one, demand is unitary.

When the absolute value of elasticity of demand is greater than one, demand is elastic.

Demand is less elastic the smaller the percentage of the consumer's budget the item takes up.

The elasticity of demand for a specific brand of good doesn't translate into the elasticity of demand for the good.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines a healthy sleep duration

laiz [17]

a. The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299. The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married but report good sleep is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours

a. The point estimate

$P=\frac{Xp}{n}$

$Xp = successes\\n = sample size\\$

Those who have never been married n = 7044

Xp = those who sleep for 7 hours at least

To get Xp, the excel function

Countif(range, criteria)

Countif(A:A, >=7)

This gives Xp = 4437

Point estimate =

$\frac{4477}{7044}$

= 0.6299

The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299

At 95% interval of confidence,

α = 1-0.95 = 0.05

α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Z0.025 = 1.96 ( Use the standard probability normal table)

Margin of Error

= $M.E = 1.96\sqrt \frac{0.6299(1-0.6299)}{7044} \\\\= 1.96\sqrt{0.000033} \\\\1.96*0.0057$

= 0.0113

The 95% confidence interval

= 0.6299 - 0.0113 , 0.6299 + 0.0113

= 0.6186, 0.6412

The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. Sample mean

x = ∑x/n

x = number of sleep of the never been married

Mean is calculated using excel function

Average(range)

Average(a:a)

This gives the sample mean = 7.2257

The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

Standard deviation using excel =

Stdev(A:A) = 0.8211

$Margin of error =1.96*\frac{0.8211}{\sqrt{7044} }$

= 0.0192

The confidence interval =

= 7.2257-0.0192, 7.2257+0.0192

= 7.2065, 7.2447

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. From the available data, the mean number of sleep per day that is gotten from the 4437 people that are unmarried and sleep healthily for at least 7 hours = 34295.1

Mean = 34295.1/4437

= 7.729

the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours

How does the way that a search engine gets and organizes information help you understand why Googling alone is not enough?

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The search engine works through three primary functions,
