OpenStudy (goformit100):

Please post this question in eastion

OpenStudy (goformit100):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if i were good in personal finance, i wouldnt be here !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

eastion?? which is...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you actually good?? @Luis_Rivera

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i dont think "D" is the most correct answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, that's the point, I'm actually very bad !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help @amistre64

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i could .... but the answer to your first question is not "D"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64

OpenStudy (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"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

.. good guess :) before a dividend is declared, the board of directors have to determine of they can offer one to begin with.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so thats the right one?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

its the "best" one .... yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. can you help me on the second question?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

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?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a and b are the bad ones?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

no, b is absurd ... but a reads like it could be legit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so b and c no, right? and the right answer is D?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

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.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. i have on more.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amistre64

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you are aware that these questions are designed to see how well you have studied the material right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea but these 3 are the only ones i missed on a test. and im retaking it. and i dont find answer in textbook.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

do you recall ho w to determine a PE ratio?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

OpenStudy (amistre64):

im sure thats in your textbook ....

OpenStudy (amistre64):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im going with C being the answer

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[P/E=\frac{market~price}{earnings~per~share}\] \[P/E=\frac{market~price(\#shares)}{net~income}\] i dont think dividends play a big role in that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its D

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i like D the best.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnx bro!
