The Preferred Stockholders of Gothic Architecture will be paid $10,800 ($3,600 x 3), while the Common Stockholders get $1,200.

Data and Calculations:

1,200 shares, 6% Cumulative Preferred Stock at $50 par value = $60,000

Dividends in 2020 = $0

Dividends in 2021 = $0

Dividends in 2022 = $12,000

Preferred dividends = $10,800 ($60,000 x 6%) x 3)

Common stock dividends = $1,200 ($12,000 - $10,800)

Thus, the Preferred Stockholders will be paid arrears of $7,200 ($3,600 x 2) and $3,600 for the current year, while the Common Stockholders will only get $1,200 ($12,000 - $10,800).
