Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The divided for common stockholders is $152000

Explanation:

The preferred stock is cumulative whch means any arrears in preference dividend will be paid whenever the dividend is declared.

The amount of yearly preference dividends is = 12000 * 100 * 0.07 = 84000

Thus, when 320000 cash dividend is declared, 2 years ( current year and arrear year) preference dividend will be paid first and the remaining will be distributed among common stock holders.

The dividedn for common stockholders is 320000 - (84000 * 2) = $152000

A decrease in the price of domestically produced industrial robots will be reflected in a. both the GDP deflator and the consume

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

A consumer price index measures the change in the price level of weighted average of a basket of goods and services purchased by the consumers.

GDP deflator measures the change in the price of all domestically produced goods and services.

A change in the price of domestically produced industrial robots will be included in the GDP deflator as it includes the prices of all domestically produced goods and services.

But it will not be included in the CPI as the industrial robots are not purchased by consumers in households, they are not consumer goods.

What would be the consequences if managers of a firm evaluated a project based on its actual dollar cash flows, but used a real

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Real rate of returns are lower than nominal rates of return, therefore, using a real discount rate would overestimate a project's net present value. This could result in unprofitable projects being accepted because the NPV was erroneously calculated. If you want to use a real discount rate, you must first convert cash flows to real dollars.

For example, nominal discount rate is 10%, inflation rate is 5%, real discount rate is 5%.

Initial outlay $100

NCF year 1 = $40

NCF year 2 = $40

NCF year 3 = $40

Using the real discount rate, the NPV = $8.93

Using the nominal discount rate, the NPV = -$0.53

Anton [14]

Answer:

Income

Explanation:

Suppose the market wage for cashiers increases from $7 per hour to $9 per hour. As a result, Pat, who is a cashier, now works five more hours per week. On the other hand Chris, who is also a cashier, now works five fewer hours per week.Chris's behavior illustrates the <u>Income</u> effect of a wage increase.

As the income increases, few individual prefer to work fewer hours as now they are able to maintain target by working fewer than at previous wage rate. These people prefer leisure over higher income and want to settle down with limited income. These people may have a backward bending individual labour supply curve – they may choose to work fewer hours when the wage rate rises.
