Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

Generally, preferred stockholders receive dividends earlier than common stockholders. Moreover, as the preference shareholders are cumulative, if they do not receive dividends current year, they will receive in the next year. Finally, preferred dividend is fixed until there are new issuance of preferred stock.

Preferred dividends for Year 1 = 1,000 shares × $200 × 10% = $20,000

For year 2 = $20,000

Given, total dividends in year 1 = $15,000

Therefore, company provides $15,000 to preferred dividends. No common dividends in year 1.

However, in the next year (Year 2), the company will pay $5,000 + $20,000 = $25,000 to preferences shareholders.

Therefore, remaining dividends are for common stockholders.

Year 2 common stockholders dividends = $75,000 - $25,000 = $50,000.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Book value par common share will be $19.6

Explanation:

We have given number of preferred stock = 1000

Value of preferred stock = $10 par preferred stock

So preferred Stock = 1000 x $10 = $10000

Total Stockholder's equity = $500000

Thus Common stock value = $500000 - $10000 = $490000

Total number of common stock = 25000 shares

So the book value per common share is = \frac{490000}{25000}=19.6
