Homework Answers

Answer #1
a. Average issuance price per share of the preferred stock=(Par value of preferred stock+Additional paid in capital preferred)/Preferred shares outstanding
Average issuance price per share of the preferred stock=(40000000+2400000)/800000=$ 53
b. K-Drama Corporation does not have $71,800,000 of cash set aside for future use
It is because retained earnings consist of net income which is computed based on accrual basis and not on cash basis.
c. Retained earnings:
Increase-Net income for the year
Decrease-Cash dividends
d. Annual dividend requirement on the preferred stock=Preferred shares outstanding*Par value*Preferred stock %=800000*50*7%=$ 2800000
