Answer:
Explanation:
Rate of return on common stockholder's equity for 2019:
= (Net Income - Preferred Dividend) / Av. common stockholder's equity
= ($94,000 - $26,000) / $312,000
= $68,000 / $312,000
= 0.2179 or 21.79%
Av. common stockholder's equity 2019 :
Total stockholder's equity 2018 ( Common) = Total stockholder's equity - Stockholder's Equity attributable to preferred
= $318,000 - $22,000
= $296,000
Total stockholder's equity 2019 ( Common) = Total stockholder's equity - Stockholder's Equity attributable to preferred
= $350,000 - $22,000
= $328,000
Av. common stockholder's equity 2019 = ($296,000 + $328,000) / 2 = $312,000
