return on preferred stock (rp) = Dividend/ Current price
rate of return = 5.5% or 0.055 as a decimal
Dividend amount = dividend rate * par value ;
Dividend amount = 4.5% * 1000 = $45
Current price = ?
Next, plug the numbers to the formula above to find Price;
0.055 = 45/ Price
0.055Price = 45
Divide both sides by 0.055;
Price = 45/ 0.055
Price = $818.18
Explanation:
The journal entry to record the re-issuance of the stock is shown below:
Cash A/c Dr $240,000 (20,000 shares × $12)
Retained earnings A/c Dr $80,000
To Treasury stock $320,000
(Being the re-issuance of the stock is recorded)
The computation is shown below:
For treasury stock
= 20,000 shares × ($16 per share - $12 per share)
= $80,000
So as we can see the retained earnings is decreased by $80,000

The future value of annual savings is $1,370.30
Explanation:
The amount of annual savings =(Shaan's premium +Anita's premium)*10%
Shann's premium is $790
Anita's premium is $645
Annual savings =($790+$645)*10%
=$143.5
The future value formula is given below:
=-fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)
rate is 5% annual interest rate
nper is the 8 years that is the duration of investment
pmt is the annual savings of $143.5
pv is the total amount invested now which is zero
=-fv(5%,8,143.5,0)
fv=$ 1,370.30
