Answer:

You want to "beat the market" with the return on your investment

Explanation:

The SP 500 is a good example of diversified portfolio investment. Investing in the index fund is less costly compared to other investment instruments. The SP 500 is considered the benchmark of investment returns in the US. Any attempts to perform better than the SP 500 is termed as trying to "beat the market."

Investors prefer good stock indexes like the SP 500 because they represent diversified investments. They spread risks in many sectors of the economy. Stock indexes have low investment costs and don't need close contact monitoring. Trying to "beat the market" with stock indexes is a daunting task. Any investor who attempts it will end up very frustrated.

Masja [62]

Answer:

Trusper Company

The total amount of dividends that will be paid to common stockholders during Year 2 is:

$40,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

10% cumulative preferred stock = $200,000 ($200 * 1,000)

Common stock = $3,000 (3,000 * $1)

Dividends in Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $20,000 ($200,000 * 10%)

Dividends outstanding after Year 1 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $15,000 ($20,000 - $5,000)

Dividends for Year 2 for cumulative preferred stockholders = $35,000 ($20,000 + $15,000).

Total dividend paid to common stockholders during Year 2 = $40,000 ($75,000 - $35,000)

b) The unpaid cumulative preferred stock dividend of $15,000 for Year 1 will be added to the dividend of the Year 2. The common stockholders are not paid any dividends in Year 1. But in Year 2, they will get $40,000 after the cumulative preferred stock dividends are paid.

Gardner Company expects sales for October of $249,000. Experience suggests that 45% of sales are for cash and 55% are on credit.

yarga [219]

Answer:

$68,475

Explanation:

Data provided

Sales in October = $249,000

Credit percentage = 55%

Following month percentage = 50%

The calculation of accounts receivable is shown below:-

Credit sales in October = $249,000 × 55%

= $136,950

Collection collected in October

= $136,950 × 50%

= $68,475

Therefore, for computing the collection collected in October we simply multiply the credit sales in October with following month percentage.
