Hey!
(Accounting) Where can I study the IAS standards, and the published company accounts thing from? Can you please post some notes or anything?
Thanks!

PS I have this book (Randall), but all of the stuff in it is about FRS, which is no longer a part of the syllabus.

All the past papers I use are from this site! You could check if there are any there. If not, I'm sorry, there most likely will be none, or would have come up before 2003.

Accounting:
A company has an authorised share capital of 100,000 ordinary shares of $0.05. It has issued 70,000 shares. The directors recommend a dividend of 6%. What will be the amount of dividend?
Answer states $2100. How? Detailed working please
Click to expand...
Formula for calculation of dividend is No of fully paid up shares(which are 70 000 in this case) X price per share ($0.050) X Rate of dividend (6%) = $210 (Please check I doubt that u have typed $0.05 instead of $0.5. Only then it can be $2100)

Okay, so two more:
1. If someone could justify question 4 from this paper: http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Economics (9708)/9708_w06_qp_3.pdf, I'd be much grateful.

2. Secondly, [J/04/3/05]
There is an increase in the supply of female labour. What will be the likely effect on male and female wages?

A. Female wages decrease, male wages decrease.
C. Female wages decreases, male wages increase.

The correct answer is A. My question is: how would male wages decrease? How are they related to female wages in the first place?
Click to expand...
As the supply of female labour would increase so the female wages would decrease and female labour can substitute male labour, thus male wages would also decrease

I did recheck. The book must have incorrectly printed it. Thanks though!

can anyone please explain to me what target pricing is?

thanks

Pricing method whereby the selling price of a product is calculated to produce a particular rate of return on investment for a specific volume of production.Target pricing is not useful for companies whose capital investment is low because, according to this formula, the selling price will be understated.
