Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

b. 12,000
c. 300,000
d. 26,320
Answer:
The correct option is c. 300,000.
Explanation:
The number of common shares issued by the company can be calculated as follows:
Common stock each at par =$0.20
Common stock total value at par = $60,000
Number of common shares issued = Common stock total value at par / Common stock each at par = $60,000 / $0.20 = 300,000
Therefore, the number of common shares issued by the company is closest to: c. 300,000.
The following information is provided for Sandhill Company and Whispering Corporation. (in $ millions) Sandhill Company Whispering Corporation Net income 2022 $130 $445 Net sales 2022 1715 4640 Total assets 12/31/20 1010 2010 Total assets 12/31/21 1085 3070 Total assets 12/31/22 1150 4100 What is Sandhill's return on assets for 2022
Answer:
11.63%
Explanation:
Average assets = [Total assets 12/31/21 + Total assets 12/31/22] / 2
Average assets = [$1085 + $1150] / 2
Average assets = $2,235 / 2
Average assets = $1,117.50
Return on Assets = Net income / Average assets
Return on Assets = $130 / $1,117.50
Return on Assets = 0.1163311
Return on Assets = 11.63%
So therefore, Sandhill's return on assets for 2022 is 11.63%.
The national lottery in the country of San Dayana is advertising on billboards in the poverty stricken, inner-cities of the country. "Buy your way out of here to America" Buy the 5 for 1 lottery tickets every Friday." Would you consider this an ethical marketing strategy? Why/Why not?
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Would you consider this an ethical marketing strategy?
No. Of course not. It is not ethical. However, it is not illegal.
It cannot be considered ethical because this piece of advertisement is playing with the lack and necessity of the poor people of San Dayana.
The lottery advertisement is trying to be lucrative and benefit from the ignorance and poverty of the people of this poor country.
Once said that people are the ones who had the last word on the decision to buy or not to buy the lottery tickets. They know that the probabilities are minimum to win the big prize.
So instead of work, save and invest, or do other legal things to prosper, they prefer to spend their hard-earn money to get the "miracle" and become rich.

Dean has earned $70,750 annually for the past five years working as an architect for WCC Incorporated Under WCC's defined benefit plan (which uses a seven-year graded vesting schedule) employees earn a benefit equal to 3.5 percent of the average of their three highest annual salaries for every full year of service with WCC. Dean has worked for five full years for WCC and his vesting percentage is 60 percent. What is Dean's vested benefit (or annual retirement benefit he has earned so far)
Answer:
$7,429
Explanation:
Calculation to determine Dean's vested benefit
Using this formula
Vested benefit=Average salary for the prior three years×( 3.5% × 5 years of service)×Vesting percentage)
Let plug in the formula
Vested benefit=$70,750 ×( 3.5% × 5)× 60%
Vested benefit=$70,750 × 17.5%× 60%
Vested benefit=$7,428.75
Vested benefit=$7,429 (Approximately)
Therefore Dean's vested benefit is $7,429

Ringmeup Inc. had net income of $129,300 for the year ended December 31, 2019. At the beginning of the year, 37,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. On May 1, an additional 15,000 shares were issued. On December 1, the company purchased 4,100 shares of its own common stock and held them as treasury stock until the end of the year. No other changes in common shares outstanding occurred during the year. During the year, Ringmeup paid the annual dividend on the 6,000 shares of 4.95%, $100 par value preferred stock that were outstanding the entire year. Required: Calculate basic earnings per share of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2019. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
$2.13 per share
Explanation:
The computation of the basic earnings per share is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
The Weighted average share is
= (37000 shares × 4 ÷ 12 + (37,000 + 15,000) shares × 7 ÷ 12 + (52,000 - 4,100) shares × 1 ÷ 12)
= 46,658 Shares
And, the Preferred dividend is
= 6,000 shares × $100 × 4.95%
= $29,700
Now EPS is
= (Net income - Preferred dividend) ÷ Weighted average share outstanding = ($129,300 - $29,700) ÷ 46,658
= $2.13 per share
You just bought a motorcycle for $8,000. You plan to ride the motorcycle for two years, and then sell it for $3,200. During this two-year period, you expect to ride the motorcycle 10,000 miles each year, and you expect the motorcycle to get 50 miles per gallon of gasoline. The annual cost of insurance is $960, registration costs are $80 (good for two years), and the price of gasoline is $2.50 per gallon. During this same two-year period, you will need to service your motorcycle five times, at $240 per service check, and obtain five oil changes. Each oil change costs $35. You will also need to replace your tires once during this two-year period, for a total cost of $400.
a. Calculate the total fixed cost, total variable cost, and cost per mile for the two-year period, .
b. Suppose you want to lower the cost per mile. You should focus on:
i. variable costs, because they represent a majority of the total costs.
ii. fixed costs, because they must be paid.
iii. variable costs, because they can be avoided.
iv. fixed costs, because they represent a majority of the total costs.
Answer:
Total fixed costs = $6,800
b. Total variable cost = $2,775
c. = $0.48 per mile
2. iii variable costs, because they can be avoided.
Explanation:
Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with output. e,g, rent, mortgage payments
If production is zero or if production is a million, Mortgage payments do not change - it remains the same no matter the level of output.
Hourly wage costs and payments for production inputs are variable costs
Variable costs are costs that vary with production
If a producer decides not to produce any output, there would be no need to hire labour and thus no need to pay hourly wages.
Depreciation + Insurance + cost of registration
Depreciation = Cost - salvage = 8,000 - 3,200 = $4,800
Insurance = 960 x 2 = 1920
Total fixed cost = 4,800 + 1920 + 80 = $6,800
Total variable cost
Gasoline + Service + Oil change + tire replacement
Gasoline = 10,000/ 50 = 2000 x 2.5 x 2 = 1000
= (1000 + (240 * 5) + (35 * 5) + 400
= 1,000 + 1,200 + 175 + 400 = $2,775
Total cost / Number of miles
= (6,800 + 2,775) / (10,000 * 2 years)
= $0.48 per mile

In 2014, Lena assigned a paid-up whole life insurance policy to an Irrevocable Trust for the benefit of her three children. Lena died in 2018, and the face value of the whole life insurance policy of $2,000,000 was paid to the Irrevocable Trust. Regarding this transfer, how much is included in Lena’s gross estate at her death? A. $0 B. $45,000 C. $2,000,000 D. $1, 955,000
Answer: A. $0
Explanation:
By current tax rules, any transfers of life insurance policies within three years of the death of the owner of the policy should be included in their gross estates.
As Lena's policy was transferred in 2014 which was 4 years before he death in 2018, it does not qualify to be included in the gross estate so the answer is $0.

A. $0

Alpha Corporation has just paid its annual dividend and is looking forward to another successful year ahead. The company had free cash flow for the year just ended of $1 billion, all of which it just paid out to its shareholders as a dividend. Right now, shareholders do not believe that Alpha has any growth opportunities, so they expect the annual cash flow and dividend stream to remain unchanged for the foreseeable future. Alpha has 100 million 3 shares outstanding and a market capitalization of $10 billion. The company is entirely equity-financed. The capital market is efficient.
A) Alpha's CEO now proposes that the company skip its dividend one year from now and instead invest the entire amount of the coming year's $1 billion free cash flow in a project that management believes will generate a perpetual annual rate of return of 21%. The CEO further asserts that the new project has similar risk to the company's assets in place. If the company were to announce immediately its plans for the investment one year from now (financed by skipping next year's dividend) what do you think will happen to Alpha's stock price?
B) Some of Alpha's Board members are worried that shareholders are expecting a dividend next year and that announcing plans to skip next year's dividend will lower the stock price today. Suppose Alpha were to announce instead that it plans to pay its usual dividend one year from now and that it has no plans for any new investment at T-. What will happen to the stock price today?
C) Suppose Alpha settles on a compromise: Alpha announces today that it will invest in the new project one year from now, butwill simultaneously issue enough new shares at that time to enable it to pay the usual S10 dividend per share to its existing shareholders. What do you think will happen to Alpha's share price one year from now under this plan? What do you think will happen to Alpha's stock price today? Which of the three plans do you think Alpha's shareholders would prefer?
Answer:
(A) Alpha's stock price will fall.
(B) What will happen to the stock price today is that it will rise.
Explanation:
(C)
(i) Under the compromise plan and one year from now, Alpha's share price will fall, since Alpha will be desperate for new share holders.
(ii) Alpha's stock price today will rise, since the value of existing stocks will increase - that is, existing shareholders are assured of their usual $10 dividend plus extra dividend from the 21% estimated annual ROR on the intended project.
(iii) Which of the three plans would Alpha's shareholders prefer?
Regular-thinking shareholders would prefer Plan B. Patient shareholders would prefer Plan A, especially if they don't see many new shareholders in one year's time. Optimistic shareholders would prefer Plan C.

What has happened to the supply of pomegranate beverages as a result?
Answer:
OM Pomegranate Juice
The supply of pomegranate beverages has risen above demand, thereby causing market glut.
Explanation:
With many suppliers of pomegranate beverages, the quantity being supplied will outstrip demand. The immediate result is a glut in the market. This will lead to producing at less than full capacity as individual producers make efforts to sell their inventories. Workers may need to be laid off in order to meet the resulting economic situation.

Vijay Company reports the following information regarding its production costs. Direct materials $ 10 per unit Direct labor $ 20 per unit Overhead costs for the year Variable overhead $ 10 per unit Fixed overhead $ 160,000 Units produced 20,000 units
Compute its product cost per unit under absorption costing.
Production cost per unit
Answer:
$48 per unit
Explanation:
Given the above data, we need to find the value of unitary fixed overhead.
Unitary fixed overhead = $160,000 / 20,000 = $8
Now, we can then calculate unitary cost of production
Unitary cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Total overhead
Unitary cost = $10 + $20 + $10 + $8
Unitary cost = $48 per unit
Shipping cost at Junk Food Imports is a mixed cost with variable and fixed components. Past records indicate total shipping cost was $18,000 for 16,000 pounds shipped and $22,500 for 22,000 pounds shipped. Assuming that this activity is within the relevant range, if the company plans to ship 18,000 pounds next month, the expected shipping cost is:
Answer:
$18,500
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the expected shipping cost is:
First step is to calculate the Variable using this formula
Variable =Change in total cost /change in units
Let plug in the formula
Variable=(22,500-18,000)/(22,000-16,000)
Variable=$0.75 per pound
Now let calculate the expected shipping cost
Expected shipping cost=$0.75 per pound *18,000 pound
Expected shipping cost=$18,500
Therefore The Expected shipping cost is $18,500

If this option has a strike of $1.15/euro, a multiple of 10,000 euros, and a per-contract (i.e. per 10k euros) premium of $175, then what is the least number of dollars you could possibly expect to net from this hedged receivable
Answer: $1404300
Explanation:
The least number of dollars that one could possibly expect to net from this hedged receivable will be calculated thus:
Amount receivable = 1,240,000 euros
Contract size for put option = 10000
Therefore, the number of contract that can be purchased will be:
= 1240000 / 10000
= 124
The total cost of option will be:
= $175 × 124
= $21700
We then calculate the minimum dollars available which will be:
= 1240000 × 1.15
= $1426000
We then deduct the total cost of option to get the net dollar proceed which will be:
= $1426000 - $21700
= $1404300
Therefore, the the least number of dollars that is expected to net from this hedged receivable is $1404300.

Behavioral segmentation addresses the knowledge of, use of, response to, and attitude toward a product. Which of these is an example of behavioral segmentation? Group of answer choices a retail shoe store targeting customers within a geographic twenty-mile radius a deodorant company targeting boys between the age of 12–18 an airline targeting customers with over 500k miles of travel on its airline
Answer:
an airline targeting customers with over 500k miles of travel on its airlineExplanation:
Note, the focus of behavioral segmentation is to identify and separate the marketing strategy used on clients/customers based on mainly their behavior, and not on demography (age, gender, etc) or geography.
Hence, the best scenario from the above options is that of an airline that targets customers with over 500k miles of travel on its airline. In other words, their traveling behavior (distances covered) is the basis why they are targeted, without consideration of demography or their geography.
