Answer: <u><em>The executive is defining the problem in terms of a solution. </em></u>

<em>The decision makers lean towards defining questions as veiled matter.

Preferred stock =  5,000 + 10,000 =    $15,000

Additional paid in capital = 2,800,000 + 1,000 = $2,801,000

Treasury stock  = 180,000 - 60,000 = $120,000

Retained earnings 9,600 + 25,000 - 3,000 = $31,600
