Answer:
Dividend paid to be paid to common stockholder=$ 20,000
Explanation:
Common stock holders are the real risk bearers as they receive as dividends the residual amount after all other claims have been settled.
Preference shares entitles the holders to participate in a fixed dividend out of the profit made by the company. The divide is always a fixed percentage of the nominal value of the preference shares
Cumulative preference shares: Cumulative simply implies that should the company misses the payment of dividend in a particular year such unpaid dividend would be carried carried forward and paid in arrears in the following year/
Preference dividends
2019 - 5.5% × $100 × 5,000= $27500
2020 - 5.5% × $100 × 5,000 = $27500
Total preferred to be paid in 2020 = 55,000
Dividends paid to common stock = Total dividend for 2020- Total preference dividend in 2020
Dividend paid to be paid to common stockholder
= 75,000-55,000= 20,000
Dividend paid to be paid to common stockholder=$ 20,000
