Answer:

The expected/required rate of return is 13.8125%.

Explanation:

The stock is a constant growth stock as the dividends are expected to grow constantly forever. The constant dividend growth model of DDM is used to calculate the price of such a stock today. As we already know the price, we will use the formula of the constant growth model to determine the required rate of return. The formula for constant growth model is:

P0 or Price today = D1  /  r - g

Plugging in the available known values,

16  =  1.25  /  (r - 0.06)

16 * (r - 0.06)  =  1.25

16r  -  0.96  =  1.25

16r = 1.25 + 0.96

r = 2.21 / 16

r = 0.138125  or  13.8125%

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

$6,500 was distributed to preferred shareholders

Explanation:

Dividend distributed to preferred share is based on the predetermined rate associated with these share. When the dividend is declared preferred share dividend is paid first. The remainder is distributed between the common stockholders.

Value of Preferred share = 8000 shares x $10 par value = $80,000

Preferred Dividend = $80,000 x 5% = $4,000
