Answer: 245

Explanation:

From the question, Audreys free-throw percentage this season is 0.875 and if she makes only 13 of her next 20 free throws, the percentage will drop to 0.860. To calculate the number of free throws Audrey has made this season goes thus:

Audrey's current rate = 0.875

Let us say y out of z should be 0.875

y/z = 0.875 ........ equation i

Therefore,

y+13/z+20 = 0.860 ........ equation ii

Recall that y/z = 0.875

y = 0.875z

Put the value of y into equation ii

y+13/z+20 = 0.860

0.875z + 13/z + 20 = 0.860

Cross multiply

0.875z + 13 = 0.860(z + 20)

0.875z + 13 = 0.860z + 17.2

Collect like terms

0.875z - 0.860z = 17.2 - 13

0.015z = 4.2

z = 4.2/0.015

z = 280

Since y =0.875z

y = 0.875 × 280

y= 245

Therefore, the number of throws Audrey made this season is 245

Answer:

$22.2222, $9.5238, respectively

Explanation:

The market-to-book ratio is given by a share's market value divided by its book value, if shares are selling for $100 on the market, the book value is:

B = \frac{\$100}{4.5}=\$22.2222

The price to earnings ratio (PE ratio) is determined as a share's price divided by the earnings per share. Earnings per share are:

E=\frac{\$100}{10.5}\\E=\$9.5238

The book value per share and earnings per share are $22.2222, $9.5238, respectively

The following stock transactions were completed by the executive vice president of Vinco, Inc., a publicly traded corporation: J
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

d- EVP has a short-term swing profit is $3000

Explanation:

Lets first understand what short-term swing profit is. Short-term swing profit is profit dependent upon a rule normally set by the securities & exchange commission which states that  any profits made by company insiders through the purchase and sale of share/stocks within six months must be returned to the company. Company insiders are people/employees working within the entity mostly having more than 10% of company's shares or employees such as executives, directors and managers.

Now It's not clear from the question what the purchase price of the shares was when EVP sold them on January 12 2016, assuming these shares were purchased at $20, then the short-term swing profit would be $2000 as at January. Then EVP purchases 100 shares at $20 and sells them at $30 per share as at june. The additional short-term swing profit would be $1000 (i.e $30-$20=$10 per share).

Therefore the total short-term swing profit is $3000
