Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.

Explanation:

Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.

Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.

Which of the following makes notes receivable different from accounts receivable? (Select all that apply.) Multiple select quest
Goryan [66]

The following makes notes receivable :

- Notes receivable are formal written contracts.

- Notes receivable have a stronger legal claim.

- Notes receivable are interest bearing.

<h3>What are Notes Receivable?</h3>

Notes receivable are a balance sheet item that records the value of promissory notes that a business is owed and should receive payment for. A written promissory note gives the holder, or bearer, the right to receive the amount outlined in the legal agreement. Promissory notes are a written promise to pay cash to another party on or before a specified future date.

If the note receivable is due within a year, then it is treated as a current asset on the balance sheet. If it is not due until a date that is more than one year in the future, then it is treated as a non-current asset on the balance sheet.

Often, a business will allow customers to convert their overdue accounts (the business’ accounts receivable) into notes receivable. By doing so, the debtor typically benefits by having more time to pay.

Sally is planning to sell her company and she prefers to obtain immediate liquidity, and the value of consideration to be fixed.
ella [17]

Answer: A cash sale

                                           

Explanation: In simple words, liquidity refers to the ability of an organisation to bear its short term expenses. For that a company must have cash or some assets that can be readily converted into cash in case of need.

Hence Sally should sell her company in cash sale as it will result in inflow of cash which will create liquidity and also the consideration will be certain with short timely payments.

Other option such as IPO or  stock for stock might result in increase in value but certainly won't give her liquidity.
