Answer:
a. $45,000
Explanation:
The retained earnings of the Company X at the beginning of the year shall be determined using the following mentioned formula:
Retained Earnings at the end of year=Retained Earnings at the start of the year+net income for the year-dividend paid by company X
In the given question:
Retained Earnings at the end of year=$60,000
Retained Earnings at the start of the year=?
Net income for the year=$25,000
Dividends paid by Company X=$10,000
$60,000=Retained Earnings at the start of the year+$25,000-$10,000
Retained Earnings at the start of the year=$60,000-$25,000+$10,000
=$45,000
So based on the above calculation, the answer is a. $45,000
Answer:
1) B) I'll be sharing some special sales tips with you tomorrow that will make your job easier.
2) B) Your goal for this month is to sell 10% more lattes, and you will receive a reward if you reach it.
3) C) Two days off with pay
Explanation:
1) The <em>E->P expectancy</em> is related to the concept of investing effort into something that you know will lead to the desired performance. It is the part of the expectancy theory that is not related to rewards.
In this example. the goal (task) is to increase sales. The E->P expectancy is the probability that Ethan's efforts will result in the desired performance (increased sales). By giving sales tips to Ethan, he will get more self-esteem and know-how and believe that his effort will in fact result in the desired outcome.
Although this is an overlooked part of the expectancy theory sometimes, it is crucial. Despite the appeal of a particular reward, an employee may not get increased motivation if he/she thinks that the task itself cannot be completed.
2) The <em>P->O expectancy</em> is related to rewards, and it states that employees will get motivated if the desired performance will result in a reward. In this case, Emma's putting the goal (10% increased sales) in direct relation with a reward.
3) Since the Motivation Report states that Ethan is motivated by time off, two days off with pay is the most appealing reward for him. The money bonus is more appropriate for Jon, while a choice of work assignments is better for Blair.
Answer: 31155.5
Explanation:
The following can be deduced from the question:
Money won = $1,000,000
Installments made yearly = $50,000
Interest rate = 5%
The yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be: = 500000-x
The future Value of the yearly deposits made by Svetalana will be:
= (50000-x) × (1/(1.05) + (1/(1.05)^2 .....(1/(1+0.05)^20))
= (500000-x) × 33.066
We should recall that the interest from the question is equated to x. This will be:
33.066 × (50000-x) × 0.05 =x
1.6533(50000 - x) = x
82665 - 1.6533x = x
2.6533x = 82665
x = 82665/2.6533
x = 31155.5
Answer:
-$16.78%
Explanation:
Given that
Proceeds from selling the shares = $4,301
Beginning price = $12.92
The computation of capital gains yield is shown below:-
End price per share
= $4,301 ÷ 400
= $10.7525 per share
Capital gains yield = (End price - Beginning price) ÷ Beginning price
= ($10.7525 - $12.92) ÷ $12.92
= -$2.1675 ÷ $12.92
= -$16.78%
