ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.34 : A biochemical engineering company has stock P = 20,000 shares of M % preferred stock of Q = $100 par and N number of shares of $20 par common stock. In year 1 : $10,000 is distributed as dividend. In year 2 : $25,000 is distributed as dividend. Let (Total Dividend) = (Dividend for Preferred Stock) + (Dividend for Common Stock).

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - ANSWER 34.34 : (a) (Dividend for Preferred Stock) = (Total Dividend) - (Dividend for Common Stock) = $10,000 - 0 = $10,000. (b) N = (Dividend for Common Stock) / (Dividend Per Share for Common Stock) = ($5000) / ($0.05) = 100,000. (Dividend for Preferred Stock) = (Total Dividend) - (Dividend for Common Stock) = $25,000 - $5,000 = $20,000 = PQ (M / 100). Then M = (20,000)(100) / PQ = (2,000,000) / [ (20,000)(100) ] = 1. Finally M = 1, N = 100,000. The answer is given by Kang Chuen Tat; PO Box 6263, Dandenong, Victoria VIC 3175, Australia; SMS +61405421706; chuentat@hotmail.com; http://kangchuentat.wordpress.com.
