Answer:
Total dividends is $421,600.00
Explanation:
Preferred shareholders' dividend=preferred shares value*4%
preferred shares value=8000*$80
=$640,000
Preferred shareholders' dividend=$ 640,000.00*4%
=$25,600.00
Common shareholders' dividend =number of shares*dividend per share
number of shares is 99,000
dividend per share is $4
Common shareholders' dividend =99000*$4
=$396,000.00
Total dividends=Common shareholders' dividend+Preferred shareholders' dividend
Total dividends=$25,600.00 +$ 396,000.00
=$ 421,600.00
