storchak [24]

Answer:

$3,115

Explanation:

Preferred stockholders has an advantage that they are paid first when there is any dividend is announced. The residual dividend will be divided into the common stockholders. Any prior years due dividend and current years dividend associated with preferred share will be paid first.

As per given data

Preferred shares = $532,300

Dividend on preferred shares = $532,300 x 5% = $26,615 per year

As in 2015 $23,500 was declared, the dividend of $26,615 is due in respect of preferred dividend.

2015

Arrears  = Amount of Preferred dividend - Dividend declared = $26,615 - $23,500 = $3,115

All the dividend of $23,500 is paid to preferred stockholders there is no dividend for common stockholders in 2015 and still there are arrears of $3,115 due in respect of preferred dividend.

When Terry retired from​ Caterpillar, he received a​ pension: Caterpillar would pay him​ $50,000 the first year he was​ retired,
djyliett [7]

Answer:

B. It would increase each year by 3 percent.

Explanation:

Given

Pension = $50,000 in first year

Increment = 5%

Inflation = 2%

Inflation doesn't only affect the value of an investment, it also influence the liabilities of a pension fund.

Consider a pension plan which gives a worker a benefit based on final average salary; A slight increase in the inflation would reduce the worker's real benefits in the years after retirement.

So, instead of Terry's pension to increase by 5% each year,

It'll increase by 3%

This is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate from the real increment rate.

5% - 2% = 3%
