    B. What is the current value of the this preferred stock?
    C. If the yield on the standard & poor's preferred stock index declines, how will the price of the preferred stock be affected?

    1)
    cost of preferred stock kp = D/SV
    6% = 6/SV
    SV = 6/6%
    SV = price of preferred stock = $100
    2)
    14% = 6/SV
    SV = 6/14%
    Price of preferred stock = $42.86
    3)
