Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For preferred shareholders
The dividend is
= 12,300 shares × 4% × $100
= $49,200
For two years, it would be
= $49,200 × 2
= $98,400
And, the total cash dividend declared is $229,000
So, the cash distribute to common stockholder is
= $229,000 - $98,400
= $130,600
hence, the cash distribute to common stockholder is $130,600
Answer: In year three the preferred stockholders would receive $7,000 and the common stockholders would receive $25,000.
Explanation: Preferred stockholders are always paid before common stockholders. Since this stock in cumulative it means that when there is not enough income in one year to pay the preferred stock then the company needs to pay them when they have the money in the future.
In this case the preferred stock is 5% of $100 par value and is cumulative. This means that every year the company needs to pay 5% times $100 par value on each stock, and there is 1,000 shares, so the total is $5,000 in preferred stock dividends.
In year one and two they did not declare enough dividends to pay this full amount. In year one they declared $2,000 and year two they declared $6,000. At the end of year two they should have received $10,000, but only received $8,000. In year three they need to pay the preferred stockholders the $2,000 that are in arrears, plus the $5,000 for year three, for a total of $7,000. Since there was $32,000 in dividends declared and $7,000 is going to the preferred stockholders, it means that there is $25,000 left for the common stockholders. $25,000/10,000 shares equals $2.50 dividend per share.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For account receivable turnover ratio
Accounts Receivable Turnover is
= Sales ÷ Average Receivables
Beginning Accounts Receivable $21,400
Add: Sales $105,300
Less: Cash Receipts $81,300
Ending Accounts Receivable $45,400
Now
Accounts Receivable Turnover is
= $105,300 ÷ ($21,400 + $45,400) ÷ 2
= 3.15 times
Now days to sell is
= 365 ÷ 3.15 times
=116 days
Answer:
Unit Selling Price Unit Variable Costs Unit Contribution Margin Contribution Margin Ratio
1. $570 $420
Unit Contribution Margin= Unit Sales Price Less Unit Variable Price =
$ 570- $ 450 = $150 (a)
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin/ Sales = 150/570* 100= 26 % (b)
2. $490 $490 -$130= $360 (c) $130 ($ 130/ $490)* 100= 27 % (d)
3. $23000 (e) $22540 (f) $460 2
Unit Contribution Margin $460
Contribution Margin Ratio 2
Contribution Margin Ratio= Unit Contribution Margin/Sales= $460/ Sales =2 %
$460/ Sales =2 %
Sales = $ 460/2%= $ 23000
Sales - Unit Contribution Margin = $ 460
Unit Contribution Margin= Sales- $460 = $ 23000- $ 460= $ 22540
