Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

$11.60

Explanation:

In ascertaining the parity price of the common stock, we need to ascertain the conversion ratio which is the par price of the preferred stock divided by the convertible price

The par value of the preferred stock=$100(since call price is $110)

convertible price=$10
