Answer:

Cost of preferred stock=7.41 %

Explanation:

<em>A preferred stock entitles its investor to a fixed amount of dividend for the foreseeable future. The dividend payable by a preferred stock is similar to a perpetuity. Hence, the price of the stock would be the same as the present value of the dividend payable for the foreseeable future. </em>

<em>A preferred stock entitles its owner to a fixed amount of dividend. It is calculated as follows:  </em>

Cost of preferred stock = D/P(1-f) × 100

D- Preference dividend

P- stock price

F- flotation cost

Preference dividend = Coupon rate × Nominal value

DATA

Nominal value = $65

Stock price = $58.63  

Dividend rate=6.25%

Flotation cost = 6.5%

Preference dividend = 6.25%× 65 = 4.063

Cost of preferred stock =(4.063 /58.63×(1-0.065) × 100 = 7.41  %

Cost of preferred stock=7.41 %

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The contrast coder's weekly salary last week was $450.00.

Explanation:

The CC charged $5.00 per record coded. The previous week she coded 300 records.

Write it like:

$5.00 x 300 = 1500.00
