Answer:

The correct option is C,$2.25 and $0.00.

Explanation:

The annual preferred shares dividends=20,000*$100*2%=$40,000

In the first year ,dividends of $10,000 paid would go to preferred stockholders while the common stockholders receive nothing.

In the second year,it is imperative to note that the balance of unpaid preferred stock dividends of $30,000 ($40,000-$10,000) would be paid alongside this year preferred dividends.

preferred stock dividends=$30,000+$40,000

However the $45,000 paid is not enough to settle the preferred stockholders,again,the total dividends of $45,000 would be paid to preferred stockholders

preferred stock dividend per share=$45,000/20,000=$2.25

common stock dividend per share is $0

Option C is the correct answer.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

a. Plan I is better is we drive 300 miles in a day.

b. 150 miles.

Explanation:

a. if mileage is 300 then rental charges will be,

Plan I : $36 + 17 cents * miles

$36 + 0.17 * 300 = $41.10.

Plan II : $24 + 25 cents * miles

$24 + 0.25 * 300 = $99.00

Plan I total cost for 300 miles is $41.10 whereas Plan II total cost for 300 miles is $99.00. Plan I is better plan and cost effective.

b. For mileage (m) calculation we will use equation;

Plan I = Plan II

$36 + 0.17m = $24 +0.25m

0.25m - 0.17m = $36 - $24

m = $12 / 0.08

m = 150 miles.
