Answer and Explanation:

(a)

Dr Land ($176 X $20,000) $3,520,000

Cr Treasury Stock ($153 X $20,000) $3,060,000

Cr Paid-in Capital from Treasury Stock $460,000

b)

Cost of treasury stock might be used although , this is not a relevant measure of this economic event but it is a measure of a prior, unrelated event. Therefore the appraised value of the land is a reasonable alternative if based on appropriate fair value estimation techniques. However, it is an appraisal as opposed to a market-determined price. The trading price of the stock is probably the best measure of fair value in this type of transaction.

An indifference curve illustrates ... a) how consumers are indifferent about the location of their own consumption levels relati
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Option c) how a consumer might trade off different levels of consumption of each of two goods, while staying at the same utility level.

Explanation:

This is the very definition of an indifference curve. The points in an indifference curve are the combinations of the quantities (level of consumption) of two different goods which will produce the very same utility to the consumer. The consumer will perceive any of those combinations as having the same utility for him.  

For example, a usual graph of various indifference curves will look like the graph attached.

In this graph the combination of 2 pairs of shoes and 15 pants will be perceived as having the same utility as the combination of 5 pairs of shoes and 4 pants. Both are combinations in the same indifference curve, the green one, and the utility of any combination lying in that green curve will be rated the same: u = 1.

You rent a car for $29.95. The first 150 miles are free, but each mile thereafter costs 15 cents. You plan to drive it 200 miles
kari74 [83]

Answer:

marginal cost is 15 cents

Explanation:

given data

car rent = $29.95

distance d1 = 150 miles

cost = 15 cents per miles

distance d2 = 200 miles

to find out

marginal cost

solution

first we find here cost for driving d2

cost for 150 to 200 miles  = 15 × 50

cost for 150 to 200 miles  = 750 cents = $7.5

so

cost for driving d2  = $7.5 + $29.95

cost for driving d2 = $37.45

so

marginal cost will be

marginal cost = change in cost / chance in distance

marginal cost = 37.45 - 39.95   /   ( 200-150)

marginal cost = 7.5 / 50  = 0.15

marginal cost is 15 cents

Floyd Industries stock has a beta of 1.25. The company just paid a dividend of $.40, and the dividends are expected to grow at 5
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

5.62%

13.75%

Explanation:

According to the DDM method,

the value of a stock = [dividend x ( 1 + growth rate)] / [cost of equity - growth rate]

67 = 0.4(1.05) / r - 0.05

multiply both sides of the equation by r -0.05

67(r - 0.05) = 0.42

divide both sides of the equation by 67

r - 0.05 = 0.006269

r = 0.0563

= 5.63%

b. the cost of equity using the capm method =

risk free rate of return + beta x ( expected return - risk free return)

5% + 1.25 x (12 - 5) = 13.75%

That is because customers are the heartbeat of the company and without them the company will ultimately go bankrupt.
