Answer:

e. $6,000 preferred; $0 common.

Explanation:

The Preference Stock holders hold first preference during payment of dividends followed by the Common Stockholders.

Note also that Cumulative Preference Stock can have their dividends accumulated and paid in the latter years when funds become available.

Amount of Preference Stock dividend is fixed and calculated as follows:

9,450 shares × $10 × 5% = $ 4,725

Cash dividends                                  = $0

Preference Stock dividend Paid      = $0

Preference Stock dividend Arrears = $ 4,725

No Common Stock Dividend

Cash dividends                                  = $6,000

Preference Stock dividend Paid      = $6,000

Preference Stock dividend Arrears = $ 3,450

No Common Stock Dividend

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The actual effective annual rate is <u>3.33%</u>.

Explanation:

Effective Annual Rate (EAR) refers to an interest rate has been adjusted for compounding over specified period of time.

Effective annual rate can therefore be described as the interest rate that paid to an investor in a year after compounding has been adjusted for.

Effective annual rate can be computed using the following formula:

EAR = [(1 + (i / n))^n] - 1 .............................(1)

Where;

i = Annual interest rate claimed by the dealer = 3.28%, or 0.0328

n = Number of compounding periods or months = 12

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

EAR = [(1 + (0.0328 / 12))^12] - 1 = 0.0332976137123635

EAR = 0.0333, or 3.33% approximately.

Therefore, the actual effective annual rate is <u>3.33%</u>.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

$2436

Explanation:

LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.

total goods sold = (total inventory purchased + beginning inventory) - 60

(36 + 126 + 18) - 60

180 - 60

= 120

the 120 units sold would be taken from the inventory purchased on the 22nd and 7

(18 x 22) + [(120 - 18) x 20]

396 + 2040 = 2436
