Answer:

$126,000

Explanation:

Given:

Total outstanding stocks = 600,000

Price per share of common stock = $2

Number of preferred stock = 120,000

Interest rate = 8%

Stock Value = $5

Outstanding year = 3

Total Amount of preferred stock = Principle × Rate × Time

or

Total Amount of preferred stock = ( 120,000 × $5 ) × 0.08 × 3 = $144,000

Since,

The preferred stock value is more than the amount distributed

Hence,

the total amount distributed i.e $126,000 will be received by the preferred stockholders

Answer: True

Explanation:

There exists a problem known as the Agency Problem between managers and the shareholders of a company. The manager is the agent and the shareholders are the owners. Sometimes, it has been shown that the agent might act in their best interests as opposed to be best interests of the owners of the business.

To solve this, the manager should be made an owner as well and one way to do so is to give them stock options. This way, they will be motivated to work hard for the owners because they will benefit as well.
