Why would a firm be willing to establish an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)? Check all that apply. Cash dividends paid on ESOP stock are tax deductible if the dividends are used to repay the loan that established the ESOP. Employers are not required to match Social Security and Medicare taxes withheld from employees’ paychecks when the employees are part of an ESOP. It is common for financial institutions to loan money to ESOPs at below-market interest rates. Purple Panda Products Inc. recently created an ESOP. The company issued 200,000 new shares of stock at $50 per share, which it sold to the ESOP. The ESOP borrowed $10 million to purchase the newly issued shares from the company. The financial institution was willing to lend the money to the ESOP, because Purple Panda Products Inc. signed a guarantee for the loan. The firm used the money from the ESOP to repurchase its shares on the open market at $50 per share. Which of the following statements describes the net effect of these transactions on Purple Panda Products Inc.’s balance sheet? The amount of the firm’s total liabilities and total shareholders’ equity will remain the same. The firm’s total liabilities will increase by $10 million. The firm’s total shareholders’ equity will increase by $10 million.

Who is better at multi-tasking? in business, employees are often asked to perform a complex task when their atten-tion is divided (i. e., multi-tasking). human factors (may 2014) published a study designed to determine whether video game players are better than non–video game play-ers at multi-tasking. each in a sample of 60 college stu-dents was classified as a video game player or a non-player. participants entered a street crossing simulator and were asked to cross a busy street at an unsigned intersec-tion. the simulator was designed to have cars traveling at various high rates of speed in both directions. during the crossing, the students also performed a memory task as a distraction. two variables were measured for each student: (1) a street crossing performance score (measured out of 100 points) and (2) a memory task score (measured out of 20 points). the researchers found no differences in either the street crossing performance or memory task score of video game players and non-gamers. “these results,” say the researchers, “suggest that action video game players [and non-gamers] are equally susceptible to the costs of dividing attention in a complex task”
