The Pinetop Corporation issues 1,000 shares of 6%, $100 par value preferred stock at the beginning of 2014. All remaining shares are common stock. The company was not able to pay dividends in 2014, but plans to pay dividends of $18,000 in 2015. Assuming the preferred stock is cumulative, how much of the $18,000 dividend will be paid to preferred stockholders and how much will be paid to common stockholders in 2015

Respuesta :

Answer:

$12,000 and $6,000

Explanation:

For computing the dividend, first we have to find out the yearly dividend which is shown below:

= Number of shares × par value per share × dividend rate  × number of years

= 1,000 shares × $100 × 6%  × 2 years

= $12,000

Out of $18,000, the $12,000 will be paid to preferred stockholders and the remaining $6,000 will be paid to common stockholders
