Answer:

c

Explanation:

Cash payback period calculates how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

Cash payback period = amount invested / cash flows

Cash flows = net income + depreciation = $5000 + $3000 = $8000

$44,000 / $8,000 = 5.5 years

Comet Company is owned equally by Pat and his sister Pam, each of whom hold 100 shares in the company. Comet redeems 50 of Pam's
forsale [732]

Answer:

Comet's E&P will decrease by $50,000 due to the exchange.

Explanation:

50 of Pam's shares are worth 50 x $1,000 = $50,000, since the corporation is redeeming them, it will do so by decreasing its earnings and profits (retained earnings account).

Generally when larger corporations buy back stocks (AKA treasury stocks), they will credit cash and debit treasury stocks, but since Pam's stocks are being retired, they are not going to be held as treasury stocks, therefore E&P must decrease.

For each scenario, decide whether it creates a producer or a consumer surplus. Then, calculate the ensuing surplus.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Alice's consumer surplus =  $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $1

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of a good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay - price of the good

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the producer is willing to accept

Producer surplus = price of the good - least price the producer is willing to accept

Alice's consumer surplus = $30 - ($35 - $10) = $5

Jeff's consumer surplus = $20 - [$16 - (0.75 x $16)] = $16

Nicole's producer surplus = $501 - $500 = $1
