What do you mean by public service?

Inessa05 [86]

A public service is something provided by the government or another official entity for the benefit of all members of a society or community, such as health care, transportation, or garbage management.

Any service designed to meet the specific needs of the total population of a community is considered a public service. People who live in a government jurisdiction can access public services directly from public sector organizations or through public financing of private companies or nonprofits (or even as provided by family households, though terminology may differ depending on context). Other public services are provided on behalf of or in the best interests of the citizens of a government. The phrase refers to a social consensus .

Which of the following statements abouot the declaration and payment of cash dividends is correct?

padilas [110]

Answer: C. Declaration and payment of cash dividends will reduce the amount of cash available to invest in assets.

Explanation:

When a company pays out Dividends it gives out money to it's shareholders and this has the effect of decreasing the cash balance that the company has.

This is cash that could have gone into investing and expanding the business but instead has gone to shareholders. Dividends therefore reduce the money available for investments.

It is for this reason that Growth Companies do not pay much dividends as they keep reinvesting profits to increase capacity and this usually adds value to the company and increases their stock price within a shorter period of time.
