Answer:

A)

common stock dividends   9,600  // 0.32 EPS

preferred stock dividends  4,800 //0.8 EPS

B)

preferred stock dividends 14,400  // 2.4 EPS

C)

common stock dividends   51,600  // 1.72 EPS

preferred stock dividends  14,400 // 2.4 EPS

Explanation:

preferred stock 6,000 shares x $10 each x 8% = 4,800

If noncumulative then:

14,400 - 4,800 = 9,600 for common stock

EPS:

4,800 / 6,000 = 0.8 PS

9,600 / 30,000 = 0.32 CS

if cumulative:

4,800 x 3 years (2016 // 2017 and the current year 2018) = 14,400

EPS

14,400 / 6,000 = 2.4 PS

if dividends are 66,000 rather than 14,400

66,000 - 14,400 = 51,600

EPs 51,600 / 30,000 = 1.72

Trade deficit can be caused because of capital deficiency. This will then lead to capital flowing into the country that is experiencing the trade deficit.
