Belmont, Inc., has outstanding 10,000 shares of $200 par value, 7% nonparticipating, cumulative preferred stock and 10,000 shares of $40 par value common stock. If the dividend on preferred stock is one year in arrears, and the total cash dividend declared this year is $288,000, then the total amounts distributed to preferred and common stockholders, respectively, are: a. $280,000 and $8,000
b. $84,000 and $204,000
c. $240,000 and $48,000
d. $108,000 and $180,000

This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?
