We can use the PV of perpetuity formula as the dividends will be paid for the infinite period of time. But we need to do a small adjustment for floatation cost. Following formula can be applied:

Cost of preferred stock = Annual Dividend / (Price x (1- flotation cost %))

= 8.50 / ( 97.50 x (1- 0.04))

= 8.50/93.60

= 9.08%

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

C. No, it will increase cost by $100.

Explanation:

Z Corp. can make three individual deliveries to three different customers at a cost of $500 each

Given that:

Cost of shipment = $1300

Cost of each delivery = $500

Stop of charge = $100 per stop

Total cost if for individual delivery to three different customers = 3($500) = $1500

Since they are three different customers, the total stop charge = 3($100)

cost for consolidating them into one shipment= $1300 + 3($100) = $1300 + $300 = $1600

Therefore there is an increase in cost of $1600 - $1500 = $100

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option A. The U.S. Constitution.

Explanation:

The reason is that the US constitution provides the basic framework for the laws to be formulated and passed both in the US National Assembly and the Senate. The laws cannot be formulated if the US constitution doesn't allows the passing of the law which means that the constitution must be amended first. When the slavery was to be eliminated in 1865, the first problem was that passing the elimination of slavery law was inconflict with the US constitution. So the constitution was amended before passing the law to eliminate the conflict.

In the nutshell, every law originates because of different reasons like Technological reasons, Social reasons, Cultural reason, etc) but the basis remains the same which is US constitution which is the basic framework for passing the law.

andre [41]

Answer:

B) a decrease of $40,000

Explanation:

As we Know Working capital is the the net or current assets and current liabilities.

Increase in Current Assets

Cash                              $20,000

Accounts receivable    $40,000

Inventories                   <u>$60,000</u>

Total Increase in CA   $120,000

Increase in Current Liabilities

Accounts payable       $50,000

Accruals                       $10,000

Long-term debt           <u>$100,000</u>

Total Increase in CA   $160,000

Increase in Working Capital =  Increase in Current Assets - Increase in Current Liabilities

Change in Working Capital = $120,000 - $160,000 = -$40,000

As current Liabilities increased more than the current assets, so the working capital will decrease by $40,000
