Preferred dividends declared----------- (25,000)---------- (25,000)
Common dividends declared----------- (60,000)--------- (60,000)
a.) rate earned on total assets: 85,000/735,000=11565
b.) rate earned on stockholders' equity: 85,000/400,000=2125
c.) rate earned on common stockholders' equity= 85,000-(25,000)/1,200,000=.05
d.) earnings per share on common stock: 85,000-(25,000)/$25=2,400
e.)price-earnings ratio on common stock: 25/27=.92
f.) dividend yield on common stock=(60,000)/$27=2222
Is this correct if not please help me.
