Answer:

c) $25

Explanation:

The value of a preferred stock is the present value of the constant dividend payable for the foreseeable future discounted at the required rate of return

Price = Constant dividend/ required return

The constant dividend = Dividend rate × par value

Dividend as be given as $5 per share

requited return - 20%

So the price of the stock would be

Price = 5/0.2

= $25
