Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The price of preferred stock is
= Dividend ÷ Discount rate
= $8 ÷ 12%
= $66.67
b. Without changing the discount rate we are unable to calculate the stock price so stock price is do not change
c. Now the
Dividend yield is
= Annual dividend ÷ Price
= $8 ÷ $66.67
= 12%
There is no capital gain yield given in the question that means capital gains
And, the expected rate of return is
= Dividend yield + capital yield
= 12% + 0
= 12%
