Answer:

for year 1

common stock =  $1.75 per share

preferred stock  = Zero

for year 2

common stock =  $4.25 per share

preferred stock  = $0.3 per share

for year 3

common stock =   $3 per share

preferred stock  =  $2 per share

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

preferred stock value =  (40000 shares * $150) = $6000000

common stock value  = (100000 shares * $5) = $500000

 step 2

For year 1:

Dividend on preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100} = $120000

But total dividend in the question was $70000 therefore total amount of  dividend on cumulative preferred stock is $70000.

hence, dividend per share

= \frac{70000}{40000 shares} = $1.75 per share

Dividend on common stock;

70,000 - 70,000 = Zero

as total dividend distributed in year 1 is insufficient for cumulative preferred stock therefore no dividend will be paid on common stock.

For year 2:

Dividend on cumulative preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100}= $120000

extra dividend of year 1 ($120000 - $70000) = $50000

Thus total dividend on cumulative preferred stock

($120000 + $50000) = $170000

So dividend per share

\frac{170000}{40000\ shares}= $4.25 per share

Dividend on common stock;

($200000 – $170000) = $30000

dividend per share

\frac{30000}{100000\ shares} = $0.3 per share

For year 3:

Dividend on cumulative preferred stock;

\frac{6000000 * 2}{100} = $120000

total dividend on cumulative preferred stock $120000

dividend per share

\frac{120000}{40000 shares} = $3 per share

No dividend was extra in the year 2 therefore only available dividend of this year will be paid.

Dividend on common stock;

($320000 – $120000) = $200000

dividend per share

\frac{200000}{100000\ shares}= $2 per share

Karen's fish tank has 13 liters of water in it. She plans to add 4 liters per minute until the tank has at least 57 liters. What
guapka [62]

Answer:

Karen has to at least spend 11 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 57 - 13 = 44. 44 divided by 4 = 11. This means that in 11 minutes Karen will have a 57 liter tank. But she could keep going, but the least number of minutes would be 11 minutes, to get to 57 liters.

I hope this helps! Please mark me Brainliest if it did! Thank you and have a nice day!

Explain how to add fractions with unlike denominators. Please be as specific as possible.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

So I will use an example to try and show you how to do this.

If we have 1/2 + 1/3, we know that we don't have like denominators. We can change this by finding one. All we need to do is multiply our denominators. So in our example, that would be 2*3=6. Our new denominator would be 6. So now we would have 1/6 + 1/6 which isn't the same as our old equation. That is because we haven't multiplied our top numbers yet. To do this, we need to multiply the top number by the opposite denominator like so, 3/6+2/6.

So our first fraction was

1/2+1/3

We then multiplied the whole fraction by the opposite denominator

3/6+2/6

Thanks! Hope you choose me for brainliest!!! Have a nice day!
