Answer:

The function that would determine the cost in dollars, c(z), of mailing a letter weighing z ounces is (0.46 + 0.20z)

Explanation:

Weight of the letter = z ounces (z is an integer greater than 1)

cost to mail a letter weighing 1 ounce = $0.46

cost to mail an additional ounce = $0.20

cost to mail z additional ounces = z × $0.20 = $0.20z

Total cost of mailing a letter weighing z ounces = $0.46 + $0.20z

Therefore, cost function, c(z) = 0.46 + 0.2z

Answer:

c(z) = 0.46 + 0.20(z - 1)

Explanation:

For letters weighing up to 1 oz $0.46 is charged

For each additional ounce $0.20 is charged

so base cost is $0.46 which should remain constant and should not change.

variable cost is $0.20 which can change according to weight so it should be linked with variable z.

So the required function would be

c(z) = 0.46 + 0.20(z - 1)

Verification:

Lets verify the above function.

When weight of the letter is 1 oz.

c(1) = 0.46 + 0.20(1 - 1) = 0.46 + 0.20(0) = $0.46

When weight of the letter is 2 oz.

c(2) = 0.46 + 0.20(2 - 1) = 0.46 + 0.20(1) = $0.66

Hence the function is working correctly.

d. Before $2

e. Explanation of tax implication is below

Explanation:

a. Number of shares  = Dividend per share × Number of shares outstanding ÷ cost per share

= 1 × 400,000 ÷ $21

= 19,048

b. Earning per share after repurchase = earnings ÷ (shares before-shares outstanding)

= $800,000 ÷ (400,000-19,048)

= 2.1

c. Market Price = Earning per share  Price × Earning

= 2.1 × 10

= $21

d. Earning per share before = Earnings ÷ Before shares

= $800,000 ÷ 400,000

= $2

Earning per share after repurchase = $2.1

After share repurchase  the earning per share has increased.

e) Price increased 21 dollars in share repurchased. The price remain constant in dividend payout the amount but additional 1 dollar in dividend the investors gains. If dividend is lesser than tax on capital gain then it will become drawback over collect dividend and vice versa.
