Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Return on the stock = (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (capital gain ÷ investment )

= (Dividend ÷ Investment) + (Final price of the stock - initial price of the stock) ÷ Investment

10 = (1 ÷ 20) × 100 + ((final price - 20) ÷ 20) × 100

10 = 5 + 5 × ( final price - 20)

Final price = 21

Therefore, the stock price should increase by [(21 - 20) ÷ 20] × 100

                                                                            = 5%

Bess wrote four checks last month, and these were the only transactions for her checking account. According to her check registe
Wittaler [7]

Answer: $184.34 

Bess issued four  checks with amounts $175.17, $175.53, $175.35,and $184.34. With the total amount she issued, she expected her balance based on her cash register to be $869.96, but as per bank statement, her balance is $1054.13.

To get the amount of check which is not cleared yet, we have to deduct the balance in the cash check register from that of the bank statement:

$1054.13-$869.96 =184.17

$184.34 is the best answer because it is the last he wrote and the discrepancy of 0.17 may be due to some bank charges Bess had not recorded.
