Homework Answers

Answer #1

a. Compute the amount of cash dividends paid during the third year to each of the three classes of stock.

Preferred cumulative = 35000*50*9%*3 = $472500

Preferred non cumulative = 5300*100*12% = $63600

Common Stock = 736000-472500-63600 = $199900

b. Compute the dividends paid per share during the third year for each of the three classes of stock. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Preferred cumulative = 472500/35000 = 13.50 per share

Preferred noncumulative = 63600/5300 = 12 per share

Common Stock = 199900/460000 = 0.43 per share

c. What was the average issue price of each type of preferred stock?

Preferred cumulaative = 1750000/35000 = 50 per share

Preferred non cumulative = 530000/5300 = 100 per share
