Answer:
<h2>
a. The Preferred stock is noncumulative.</h2>
Preferred stock
= 7,710 * 17.5 * 8%
= $10,794
Per share
= 10,794/7,710
= $1.40
Common Shareholders.
= 63,800 - 10,794
= $53,006
Per share
= 53,006/49,000
= $1.08
<h2>
b. Preferred stock is cumulative. </h2>
This means that if preferred dividends are not paid in a year, they will be accrued and paid when they can.
Preferred stock
= 7,710 * 3 years (2017,2018,2019)
= $23,130
Per share = 23,130/7,710
= $3
Common stock
= 63,800 - 23,130
= $40,670
Per share
= 40,670/49,000
= $0.83
c. Why were the dividends per share of common stock less for the cumulative preferred stock than the noncumulative preferred stock?
b. The dividends in arrears on the preferred stock had to be fulfilled before dividends could be paid for the current year.
