Explanation of Solution

Preferred stock: The stock that provides a fixed amount of return (dividend) to its stockholder before paying dividends to common stockholders is referred as preferred stock.

Step 1: Calculate total paid in capital for common stock.

Total paid in capitalfor common stock}=[Number of common shares issued×Issue price per share]=30,000,000×$30=900,000,000

Step 2: Calculate total paid in capital for preferred stock.

Total paid in capitalfor common stock}=[Total paid in capitalTotal paid in capitalfor common stock]=$1,200,000,000$900,000,000=$300,000,000

Step 3: Calculate the average price per share for which the preferred share would have been issued.

Average price per sharefor which the preferredshare would have been issued}=Total paid in capital for preferred stockNumber of preferred shares issued=$300,000,0006,000,000=$50

Answer to Problem 4PA

The amount of net income for the year is $68,000.

Explanation of Solution

Net income: Net income is the excess amount of revenue which arises after deducting all the expenses of a company. In simple terms, it is the difference between total revenue and total expenses of the company.

Determine the amount of net income for the year as follows:

Net income =[(Ending retained earnings+ Dividends)Beginning retained earnings]=($288,000+$30,000)$250,000=($318,000$250,000)=$68,000

Hence, the amount of net income for the year is $68,000.
