Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C. Yes. If repair rates are higher for planes that have been​ resold, this would be an indication of a lemons problem

Explanation:

Lemons problem is an issue of quality of product, asset, investment : due to asymetric information about the respective quality.

Asymetric Information is when one one party in transaction has more knowledge about the quality of product or asset, than the other party.

Second hand goods are an illustration of this case, as seller has more information about the real quality of good or asset than buyer.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$23900

Explanation:

Given: Cumulative Preferred stock is 5900 shares of 6% at $50.

           Dividend paid in 2019= $11500

First lets calculate the value of preferred stock.

Preferred stock= 5900 shares\times \$ 50\times \frac{6}{100}

∴ Preferred stock= $17700.

Formula:

Dividend received by preferred stockholder= [Preferred\ stock +(Preferred\ stock-Dividend\ paid)]

⇒Dividend received by preferred stockholder=17700+(17700-11500)

⇒ Dividend received by preferred stockholder= 17700+6200= \$ 23900

∴ $23900 dividend received by preferred stockholder in 2020.
