Calculate the payout ratio, earnings per share, and return on common stockholder equity ratio.
EPS = (Net Inc-Pref DIv)/No of common shares
= (280000-40000)/(305000-47000) = $0.93
payout ratio = DIv per share/EPS = 0.50/0.93 =53.8%
Return on Equity = (Net Income-Pref Div)/(Shareholder's Equity - Pref Capital)
= (280000-40000)/(2604000 - 300000-15000)
= 10.5%
