Answer:
The company's cost of preferred stock is 5.1%
Explanation:
In order to find the cost of the preferred stock we will need to divide the dividend the company pays on it by the net amount that the company is receiving for selling it.
In order to find the dividend we will multiply 9% by the par value of 20
Dividend = 0.09*20=1.8
Now we need to find the net amount the company receives for selling the preferred stock.
The company sells the stock for $40 but also has a issuing cost of $5, so in order to find the net amount we will subtract the cost from the price.
40-5= 35
35 is the net amount the company receives.
Now we will divide the the dividend 1.8 by the net amount 35
1.8/35=0.051
=5.1%
The company's cost of preferred stock is 5.1%

Answer:
Over/under allocation= $30,000 overapplied
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Manufacturing overhead applied $150,000
The actual amount of manufacturing overhead costs 120,000
To calculate the ending balance, we need to determine whether the overhead was under or over applied:
Over/under allocation= real MOH - allocated MOH
Over/under allocation= 120,000 - 150,000= 30,000 overapplied
