Answer:
C. Preferred stockholders will receive the entire $300,000 and they must also be paid the remaining $20,000 sometime in the future before common stockholders will receive any dividends.
Explanation:
Preferred shares have preference over the common shares in respect of dividend. Since $300,000 is paid as dividend, the entire amount has to be paid to the preferred shareholders, as the total amount payable to them as dividend = $1,000,000 * 4 *8% = $320,000, which is more than the total dividend declared.
In addition, as the preferred shares have cumulative dividend preference the shortfall in any year is to be carried forward and paid in the year in which dividends are paid and that too before any dividend is paid to the common shareholders.
