<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
<u>Given data:</u>
the market price of share = $80, the par value of share = $75, floatation cost = $3.5, corporate tax = 21 %
The Annual dividend = 75 multiply with 16 percent = $12
Hence, the cost of preferred stock = Annual dividend divide by (Current price-Flotation cost)
