Answer:

A. Price-earnings ratio= 12.34

B. Yield on the stock = 2.36%

Explanation:

A. Calculation for the price-earnings ratio using this formula

Price-earnings ratio=Market Price Per Share / Earnings Per share

Let plug in the formula

Price-earnings ratio=59.25 / 4.80

Price-earnings ratio= 12.34

B. Calculation for the yield on the stock using this formula

Yield on the stock=Annual dividends per share / market price per share

Let plug in the formula

Yield on the stock=1.40 / 59.25

Yield on the stock = 2.36%

Therefore the Price-earnings ratio is 12.34 while the Yield on the stock is 2.36%

STatiana [176]

Answer:

Economic duress

Explanation:

We say there is an economic duress during a contract when one party to the contract threatens to terminate the contract if the other person does not agree to their demands. Brent is asking for more money, if he does not get this, he says he would leave the work unfinished.

When this happens, the other party may be left stuck and may have no option than to agree to the new demands of the contract.

Finger [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

                                                                      AAA                   AEP

Beginning balance, 1/1/20                           200,000        110,000

Less: Distributions                                          (140,000)            (0)

Less: Loss (ordinary)                                  (120,000)            (0)

Ending Balance                                           (60,000)       110,000

Here AAA is adjusted first for the distributions and then for the loss. The negative balance must be restored to a positive before the shareholders may receive any distributions that will not be taxed as dividend income.

LiRa [457]

Blance after 10 years = $800 ( 1+ 6% )^10 = $800 x 1.791 = $1,433

Lara Deposit balance

Principal amount = $800

Amount of Interest for 10 years = 800 x 6% x 10 = $480

Blance after 10 years = $800 + $480 = $1,280
