Answer:

EPS  = (Net Income- Preference dividends ) / Common Dividends

        = ($2,100,000-$75,000)/ (600,000 + 60,000 - 2,000)

       = $2,025,000/658,000

       = $3.08

Explanation:

The Net income for the year is already after all expense including taxes.

The shares sold means they were issued out to public and raised capital through the sale. Retired shares are first bought back the retired hence the minus 2000 shares.

Answer:

Dow's earnings per share for the year ended 31, 2021 is 335 cents

Explanation:

Earnings Per Share = Profit Attributable to Shareholders of Common Stock/Weighted Average Number of Common stocks

<u>Profit Attributable to Shareholders of Common Stock :</u>

Net income for the year                                                   $2,100,000

Less Dividends to preferred shareholders                        ($75,000)

Profit Attributable to Shareholders of Common Stock   $2025,000

<u>Weighted Average Number of Common stocks :</u>

Shares of Common Stock at the Beginning of the Year   600,000

Add Common Shares Shares Sold (6,000 × 10/12)                5,000

Less Shares Retired ( 2,000 × 6/12)                                        (1,000)

Weighted Average Number of Common stocks                604,000

Earnings Per Share = $2025,000/604,000

                                =  $ 3.35

                                =  335 cents

Suppose a large country experiences economic growth which results in a reduced willingness to trade. The country’s terms of trad
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": improve; rise.

Explanation:

Terms of Trade measures the efficiency of a country's trade. It is a ratio which compares the exports of a country with its imports. It is <em>calculated by dividing the export value by the import value, and by multiplying the result by one hundred (100)</em>. A terms of trade figure higher than 100, means a country exporting goods at a higher value than its imports.

<em>Given the case that there is no willingness to trade in an economy after a growth, the most possible scenario to take place is that the trade terms will </em>improve <em>as a result of the decrease in the demand of imports and assuming the level of exports keeps at the constant level that allowed the economic growth or if it even </em>rises<em>.</em>

On February 1, a seller paid $1,140 in annual property tax for the current calendar year. He sold the house with the closing set
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$288

Explanation:

Since the total property taxes for the year are $1,140, to find the property tax per month we have to divide by 12 ⇒ $1,140 / 12 = $95 per month

The seller is responsible for paying the property taxes during 3 months and 1 day, to find out the amount for that 1 day we divide the monthly tax by 30 = $3.17 per day.

the total seller's credit = ($95 x 3) + $3 = $285 + $3 = $288

*The seller's credit includes all the expenses that must be paid by the seller, while the seller's debit includes all the money that he receives.

A politician is interested in the proportion of voters in his district who think he is doing a good job.
MaRussiya [10]

A politician should be interested in the proportion of voters in his district.

The answer is true.

Explanation:

This is not only true for politician but also for any job which involves voting.

  • look into the welfare of the society
  • takes measure when problem occurs
  • is easily accessible to the public
  • lend his ears to the problems
  • provides an unbiased approach
  • he is interested in doing service
  • obeys laws

But it does not mean that, the person who got victory in the election has done good job in the previous service period. There are many factors that decide the polling of vote.

kirill [66]

Answer:

The present value index is 0.91 which is less than 1. So, the investment should not be accepted.

Explanation:

Present Value Index : It shows the ratio between the sum of present value of all years cash inflows after applying the discount rate and initial investment.

In mathematically,

Present value index = Sum of present value of all years cash flows with discount rate ÷ Initial Investment

where,

Present value = Net cash flow × Discount rate

So,

Year 1 = $180,000 × 0.909 = $163,620

Year 2 = $120,000 × 0.826 = $99,120

Year 3 = $100,000 × 0.751 = $75,100

Year 4 = $90,000 × 0.683 = $61,470

Year 5 = $90,000 × 0.621 = $55,890

Now, Sum all the yearly cash inflows which equals to

= $163,620 + $99,120 + $75,100 + $61,470 + $55,890

= $455,200

So, the present value index = $455,200 ÷ $500,000 = 0.91

Hence, the present value index is 0.91 which is less than 1. So, the investment should not be accepted.

What is the percentage loss on the funds she invested if the interest payment is included in the calculation
adoni [48]

Answer with complete Question:

Barbara buys 130 shares of DEM at $33.00 a share and 190 shares of GOP at $37.00 a share. She buys on margin and the broker charges interest of 7 percent on the loan.

a. If the margin requirement is 42 percent, what is the maximum amount she can borrow? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

$ 6,565.60

(Which is equal to 58(100 - 42)% of $11,320.)

b. If she buys the stocks using the borrowed money and holds the securities for a year, how much interest must she pay? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

$  459.59 ($6,565.60 x 7%)

If after a year she sells DEM for $22.00 a share and GOP for $30.00 a share, how much did she lose on her investment? Use a minus sign to enter the amount as a negative value. Round your answer to the nearest cent.

$  2,760

What is the percentage loss on the funds she invested if the interest payment is included in the calculation? Use a minus sign to enter the amount as a negative value. Round your answer to two decimal places.

28.44 %

Explanation:

a. Data and Calculations:

DEM, 130 shares at $33.00 a share = $4,290

GOP, 190 shares at $37.00 a share =   7,030

Total value of investments = $11,320

Margin requirement = 42% of $11.320 = $4,754.40

Barbara can borrow $6,565.60 ($11,320 - $4,754.40)

1. Interest on borrowed fund (margin):

$6,565.60 x 7% = $459.59

2. Loss from Sale of:

DEM, 130 shares at $22.00 a share = $1,430 ($11 x 130)

GOP, 190 shares at $30.00 a share = $1,330 ($7 x 190)

Total loss from investments = $2,760

3. Percentage Loss, with interest included:

Interest on borrowed fund = $6,565.60 x 7% = $459.59

Total loss from investments =       $2,760.00

Total loss  = $3,219.59

Total value of investments = $11,320

Percentage Loss = $3,219.59/$11,320 * 100 = 28.44%
