Question 7. the corporate charter of gagne corporation allows the issuance of a maximum of 100,000 shares of common stock. during its first 2 years of operation, gagne sold 70,000 shares to shareholders and reacquired 4,000 of these shares. after these transactions, how many shares are authorized, issued, and outstanding?

Share Authorized = 100,000 Shares  

Share issued = 70,000

Share outstanding = 66,000 shares

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Number of shares Gagne Corporation allows the issuance = 100,000 shares

Number of shares Gagne sold to shareholders =  70,000

Number of shares reacquired by Gagne = 4,000

Now,

Share Authorized = Number of shares Gagne Corporation allows the issuance

= 100,000 Shares  

Share issued = Number of shares Gagne sold to shareholders

= 70,000

Share outstanding = Shares issued - Number of shares reacquired

= 70,000 - 4,000

= 66,000 shares

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
