Please this question NEWLY
Please post this question in eastion
ok
if i were good in personal finance, i wouldnt be here !
eastion?? which is...?
are you actually good?? @Luis_Rivera
i dont think "D" is the most correct answer
No, that's the point, I'm actually very bad !
can you help @amistre64
i could .... but the answer to your first question is not "D"
then what is it?
@amistre64
you have 3 other options to choose from, and i perfer not to just hand out an answer. pick one and we will see if its a "best choice"
a?
.. good guess :) before a dividend is declared, the board of directors have to determine of they can offer one to begin with.
so thats the right one?
its the "best" one .... yes
ok. can you help me on the second question?
the second one you posted has 2 ridiculous options, and 2 options that sound legit, can you narrow it down to the 2 legit options for me?
a and b are the bad ones?
no, b is absurd ... but a reads like it could be legit
so b and c no, right? and the right answer is D?
i would lean towards D as the "best" answer. A sounds good, but is not really accurate. A financial planner needs to be adept all those fields.
ok. i have on more.

@amistre64
you are aware that these questions are designed to see how well you have studied the material right?
yea but these 3 are the only ones i missed on a test. and im retaking it. and i dont find answer in textbook.
do you recall ho w to determine a PE ratio?
nope
im sure thats in your textbook ....
since 3 answers deal with PE ratio, id say A is out; which one did you pick to begin with, we can rule that one out then
im going with C being the answer
\[P/E=\frac{market~price}{earnings~per~share}\] \[P/E=\frac{market~price(\#shares)}{net~income}\] i dont think dividends play a big role in that
so its D
i like D the best.
thnx bro!
