Answer:
The price of the stock is expected to be $188.16 in 1 year.
Explanation:
This can be determined as follows:
Current price of the stock = Expected next dividend / Expected return = $24.87 / 15.2% = $163.62
Expected stock price in 1 year = Current price of the stock * (100% + Expected return)^Number of year = $163.62 * (100% + 15.2%)^1 = $188.16
Therefore, the price of the stock is expected to be $188.16 in 1 year.

Since the preferred stock is not cumulative only the current years' dividend is payable on these stocks.
Preferred stock dividend = (5000 * 100) * 0.08 = $40,000
Of the declared dividend of $100,000,
Preferred Dividend = $40,000
Ordinary share dividend = $60,000
If the shares were cumulative, the prior year dividends would also be payable form the declared dividends bringing the total preferred dividend to $80,000.
