O 0.43. 0.32. 0.57. 0.40. Which of the following are effective ways for managers to try to boost a company's stock price? O Increase the company's dividend payments to shareholders each year, keep the company's credit rating at A (or above), strive to increase the company's retained earnings each year by a minimum of 5%, and not issue more than 5,000 shares of common stock in any one year. Cut the dividend to zero and issue additional shares of stock so as to increase the funds available for quickly paying off all long-term debt (ideally in no more than 2 years); then the company should avoid further use of long-term debt, strive to achieve and maintain a credit rating of A or A+, and declare a dividend each year that equals projected EPS. O Spend amounts on corporate citizenship and social responsibility that are above the industry average, boost the company's dividend payout ratio to more than 100%, charge prices for branded footwear that are below the industry average in each geographic region, and issue sufficient shares of common stock to raise the funds to pay off all long-term debt within 2 years. Make every effort to achieve a branded market share in each geographic region that is at least equal to the industry average, keep the company's dividend payout ratio in the range of 50%, and repurchase shares of common stock. O Repurchase shares of common stock and aggressively pursue efforts to achieve annual increases in earnings per share that meet or beat investor expectations. The industry-low, industry-average, and industry-high cost benchmarking data on p. 6 and p. 7 of each issue of the Footwear Industry Report O are of little value to company managers in making decisions to improve company performance in the upcoming decision round, although they may certainly be of interest to those managers who are curious about how their company fared on the various reported benchmarks. O have the greatest value to those company managers who are desperately searching for ideas on what they can do to improve their company's EPS and ROE. O aid managers in assessing whether their company's costs and/or operating profits for the benchmarked items are adequately competitive--when such is not the case, the company's managers should promptly address how best to correct the high-cost or low-profit problem(s). are especially valuable to the managers of companies whose branded footwear has an S/Q rating of 7 stars or lower. O are of greatest value to the managers of companies looking for ways to increase their company's market share of branded footwear sales in one or more geographic regions
