The company’s return on common stockholders’ equity for the present year is 7.9%
Explanation:
The return on common stockholders’ equity of the company for the present year is computed as:
= Net Income - (Shares x 6% x Rate of shares)
where
Net Income is $171,000
Shares is 10,000
Rate is $100
Putting the values in the above:
=$171,000 - (10,000 x .06 x $100)
= $171,000 - $60,000
= $111,000
Return on common stockholders’ equity = [ $111,000 / Common stockholders’ equity on January 1 + Common stockholders’ equity on December 31 / 2 )]
= ([$111,000($1,200,000+$1,600,000 /2 )]
= $111,000 / ($28,00,000 / 2)
= $111,000 / $14,00,000
= 0.079 or 7.9%
