Answer:
(A) Rate earned on stockholder's equity=15%
(B) Rate earned on common stockhloder's equity= 16%
Explanation:
A company reports the following profitability analysis
Net income of $375,000
Preferred dividend of $75,000
Average stockhloder's equity of $2,500,000
Average common stockhloder's equity of $1,875,000
(A) The rate earned on stockholder's equity can be calculated as follows
= Net income/Average stockholders equity
= $375,000/$2,500,000
= 0.15×100
= 15%
(B) The rate earned on common stock holder's equity can be calculated as follows
= Net income-Preferred dividend/Average common equity
= $375,000-$75,000/$1,875,000
= $300,000/$1,875,000
= 0.16×100
= 16%
Hence the rate earned on stockholder's equity and common stockhloder's equity is 15% and 16% respectively.
