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

A. becomes a variable cost
Explanation:
Fixed costs are the expenses that remain constant in a period. During the period under review, fixed costs do not change regardless of the level of output. Fixed costs are mostly made up of overheads such as rent , depreciation, and administrative salaries.
Fixed cost remains constant in a particular financial year. In the long run, business budgets and projections tend to change, resulting in changes to the fixed cost. In other words, in the long run, fixed costs will change. Therefore, in the long run, all costs are variable expenses.
