Assume two different scenarios: (a) The lowest interest rate you find on a five-year car loan is 10 percent, and the annual rate of inflation for the next five years will be 9 percent. (b) The lowest interest rate you can find on a five-year car loan is 6 percent, and the annual rate of inflation for the next five years will be 1 percent.

labwork [276]

Answer:

c) $7200

Explanation:

Preference dividends have preference when it comes to payment of dividends.

This means that we pay the Preference Stock holders their dividend (which is fixed) and there after the remainder is paid up to the Common Stockholders

Preference dividend = 900 shares x $100 x 4 % =  $3600

When Preference Stock is Cumulative, it means that all previous dividends in arrears have to be paid up before any current year distributions are made.

<u>2018</u>

Cumulative Preference dividend = $3600 (2017) + $3600 (2018) = $7200

therefore,

Dividends in arrears at December 31, 2018 total $7200
