The above-mentioned question is missing few components. I have added them to explain on how the question would be solved if all the variables were provided. Please note the additions in bold text below. The answer of which is given afterwards.
You own 300 shares of Somner Resources' preferred stock, which currently sells for $39 per share and pays annual dividends of $5.50 per share. If the market's required yield on similar shares 12% is percent, should you sell your shares or buy more?
Solution as mentioned below:
First of all we need to calculate value of the preferred stock by dividing the annual dividend per share from the market required rate.
Value of preferred stock = 5.50 / 12%
Value of preferred stock = $45.83
Now given the fact that the current price at which the stocks are sold is $39 which is less than the price at which they are actually valued which is $45.83. You should buy more of the shares as they are currently undervalued.

The answer is stated below:
Explanation:
A. Received or collected $10,000 in exchange of the common stock:
This transaction will have an impact on the Accounting Equation of the Accounts, which is :
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
As the cash is received, there will be an increase in the assets and under the cash account of the current assets. Though the cash is against the common stock, which increases the common stock account upon the side of the equity.
Therefore, it will be:
Increase in assets (Cash) : Increase in equity (Common Stock)
B. Bought the equipment on account worth $5,000.
This transaction will have an impact on the Accounting Equation as:
As the equipment is purchased will in turn lead to increase in the assets side, under the equipment account and it is purchased on account, which means on credit, that leads to increase in the liability under the Accounts Payable account.
Therefore, it will be:
Increase in assets (Equipment) : Increase in Liability (Accounts Payable)
Answer:
a. $12.08 per share
Explanation:
For computing the next year stock we have to do the following calculations
Current Earning per share = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares Outstanding
= $9,750,000 ÷ 5,500,000 shares
= $1.77
Current Price Earning ratio = Current stock price ÷ Current EPS
= $14.74 ÷ $1.77
= 8.33
Now Next year earning per share = $9,750,000 × 1.25 ÷ 8,400,000 shares = $1.45
So, the next year stock price = $1.45 x 8.33
= $12.08 per share
