What are the dividends received by the preferred and common shareholders in 2020

Respuesta :

Answer:

$11,300 and $7,600

Explanation:

The computation of the dividend received by the preferred and common shareholders in the year 2020 is given below:

For the year 2019

Dividend paid to preferred shareholder = 3,500 shares × 4% × $50 = $7,000

But the dividend is paid $2,700

So, the balance left is

= $7,000 - $2,700

= $4,300

Now for the year 2020

Dividend paid to preferred shareholder = 3,500 shares × 4% × $50 = $7,000

But the dividend for 2019 is $4,300

So, the total dividend paid is

= $7,000 + $4,300

= $11,300

And, the total dividend declared is $18,900

So for common shareholders, the dividend would be

= $18,900 - $11,300

= $7,600
