For computing how many shares of common stock would be issued, we have to use the formula of common share produced which is shown below:

Common share produced = Par value ÷ Conversion price

Now, apply these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equals to

= $5,000,000 ÷ $40

Answer:

The correctt answer that fills the gap is Double.

The use of per capita income as an indicator of wealth or economic stability of a territory makes sense because through its calculation, national income is interrelated (through GDP in a specific period) and the inhabitants of this place.

The objective of GDP per capita is to obtain data that shows in some way the level of wealth or welfare of that territory at a given time. It is often used as a measure of comparison between different countries, to show differences in economic conditions.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The answer is: David should make pizza and John should make pasta.

John is more efficient at producing both pizza and pasta, but considering he can only make one at a time we calculate David´s productivity compared to John´s.

David is 80% as productive as John in making pizza, and only 75% as productive in making pasta.

David should be in charge of making pizza because his productivity is closest to John´s.
