E. A given amount of supply creates an equal value of demand somewhere in the economy
Answer:
35,000 stocks
Explanation:
Dividends can be either distributed in cash or distributed as new stock. In this case the company decided to issue stock instead of cash payments. Since the company has 500,000 outstanding and the board declared a 7% dividend, then 35,000 stocks should be issued (= 500,000 x 7%).
Whether shareholders receive money or stocks, they still have to include the dividends as part of their gross income.
Answer:
James operates a restaurant in a seaside tourist town. It is winter and all the tourists have left
Rex invests in new computer software that will automate his bookkeeping.
Explanation:
In winter, the patronage at James' resturant would drop because tourists would have left. Because demand at the resturant has dropped, James would reduce his demand for Labour which are his staffs. He would let some staffs go temporarily to reduce costs .
If Rex invests in a software that automates his book keeping, he wouldn't need an accountant to help with his book keeping, so demand for labour would fall.
After Katie's competition closes down, more people would patronise Katie. Katie's demand for Labour would increase because of the influx of customers.
Amy would need labour to obtain wood; her demand for Labour would increase.
If school is just resuming, there would be a high influx of people into the bookstore, the bookstore would increase its demand for Labour because of the high influx of customers .
