Answer:
O Debit Retained Earnings $4,000; credit Common Dividends Payable $4,000.
Explanation:
Dividend declared = $0.5 per share
Total Authorized shares = 20,000 shares
Total Issued Shares = 9,000 shares
Total Outstanding shares = 8,000 shares
As outstanding shares are only eligible shares for the dividend payment.
Total Dividend Payment = $0.5 per share x 8000 shares
Total Dividend Payment = $4000

Explanation:
A Dutch auction is a method for pricing shares (often in an initial public offering) whereby the price of the shares offered is lowered until there are enough bids to sell all shares. All the shares are then sold at that price. The goal of a Dutch auction is the find the optimal price at which to sell a security.
For example, let's assume Company XYZ wants to sell 10 million shares using a Dutch auction. To participate in a Dutch auction, an investor typically opens an account with Company XYZ's underwriter (usually an investment bank), obtains a prospectus, and obtains an access code or bidder identification code (Dutch auctions often occur online).
During bidding, investors indicate how many shares they're willing to buy and the price they're willing to pay. The underwriter, who acts as the auctioneer, usually starts the auction by offering a prohibitively high price for the security (say, $40 per share in this case). It then lowers the price gradually to say, $36 per share, where two bids come in for 500,000 shares. The underwriter then lowers the price again, this time to $35, and attracts 4,000,000 shares worth of bids. After lowering the price to $34, the underwriter gets another 5,000,000 shares worth of bids; then the underwriter lowers the price to $33 and gets another 3,000,000 in bids before the auction ends.

Answer:
59% - a)increase - b)decrease
Explanation:
First of all, we should say that the real exchange rate is calculated by multiplying the nominal exchange rate for the price index and then divide it by the price index of the other country. In another language, using this case as the example, the first nominal exchange rate is 50, as you need 50 rupees to buy 1 dollar. So to calculate the real exchange rate you need to multiply 50 by 100 (the price index of USA) and then divide it by 100 (the price index of India). Note that both price indexes are 100, just a coincidence for making easier the question. Result: 50.
Then we calculate the next real exchange rate: multiply 60 (the new nominal exchange rate) by 106 (the new US price index) and divide by 80 (the new India price index). This throws a result of 79,5. We see a 29,5 increase, and 29,5 represents 59% of 50 (the initial real exchange rate).
Then both questions is more common sense than the reading of the results we just calculated. For example, nominal exchange rate changed from 50 to 60, so the people in India will now have to collect 10 more rupees to buy the same dollar. Let's suppose a pair of shoes in USA costs 40 dollars. Before, Indians needed 2000 rupees to buy it. Now they will need 2400 rupees... it will be more expensive. Plus, the prices of USA had gone up 6%, which means the pair of shoes will now cost 42,4 dollars... even more expensive! As products in USA are more expensive, we can expect that India's consumption of American goods will decrease (law of demand).
With the American consumption of Indian goods happens the opposite, the goods in India became cheaper (price index has fallen), and for the Americans, the same dollars they had will buy more rupees when the exchange rate changed to 60.
Answer:
correct option is C. $250,000
Explanation:
given data
sold the home and gain = $300,000
to find out
amount of the gain allowed to exclude from gross income
solution
we know that Michael owned the property for the 10 years
so here Michael is not allowed to exclude the gain = 10 % that is $30,000
and The maximum gain exclusion permitted = $250000
so here Michael will recognize $50,000 because amount exceed $250,000 for a single taxpayer and exclusion of gain on sales of property tax payer need to own and occupy the property as principle residence for the 2 out of 5 year immediately preceding the sales
so here correct option is C. $250,000
