Answer:

28.63%

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of preferred stock is shown below:

Cost of the preferred stock = Dividend ÷ Price of the stock

where,

Dividend is

= $1,000 × $15%

= $150

And, the price of the stock is

= Market value of the stock - flotation cost

= $576 - $52

= $524

So, the cost of preferred stock is

= $150 ÷ $524

= 28.63%

We ignored the marginal tax rate i.e 40%

Lenders are the ones who lend money to those who need it urgently, in the form of a mortgage, or perhaps an auto loan. This money is going to be repaid monthly, or in whatever way the contract stipulates. It is less risky for the lender because legally, this has to be repaid.

Warranty liability is a legal responsibility account in which a company records the amount of the repair or replacement cost that it expects to incur for products already shipped or services already provided. This can be an extensive liability for more complicated products subject to breakage.

Accrue the warranty expense with a debit to the warranty price account and a credit to the warranty liability account. As actual warranty claims are received, debit the warranty liability account and credit the stock account for the cost of the replacement parts and products sent to customers.
