P 18-9 Effect of preferred stock characteristics on dividends
The shareholders' equity of Kramer Industries includes the data shown below. During 2009, cash dividends of $150 million were declared. Dividends were not declared in 2007 or 2008.
($ in millions)
Common stock $200
Paid-in capital - excess of par, common 800
Preferred stock, 10%, nonparticipating 100
Paid-in capital - excess of par, preferred 270
Required:
Determine the amount of dividends payable to preferred shareholders and to common shareholders under each of the following two assumptions regarding the characteristics of the preferred stock.
Assumption A - The preferred stock is noncumulative.
Dividends for Preferred stock = 10% x $100 = $10 million
Therefore, the remaining amount left that go to Common stock will be
$150 million - $10 million = $140 million
Assumption B - The preferred stock is cumulative.
If the preferred stock is cumulative, it means that if all or part of the required dividend on preferred stock is not paid during a given year, the unpaid dividend accumulates and carries forward to succeeding years. The accumulated amount of unpaid dividends as well as current dividends must be paid before any dividends can be paid on common stock.
Dividends for Preferred stock = $10 million x 3 years (2007, 2008, 2009) = $30 million
Dividends for Common stock = $150 million - $30 million = $120 million
