Answer:
$11.60
Explanation:
In ascertaining the parity price of the common stock, we need to ascertain the conversion ratio which is the par price of the preferred stock divided by the convertible price
The par value of the preferred stock=$100(since call price is $110)
convertible price=$10
conversion ratio=$100/$10=10
The parity price is the current market price of the preferred stock divided by the conversion ratio
Parity price=$116/10
Parity price=$11.60
