Answer 1

Number of common stock outstanding = common dividend (2016) / common dividend per share (2016)

= $120,000 / $0.3

= 400,000

Number of preferred stock outstanding = preferred dividend (2016) / preferred dividend per share (2016)

= $45,000 / $0.3

= 150,000

Total paid in capital common stock (400,000 * $20 + 7,000,000)	$15,000,000
Total paid in capital preferred stock (150,000 * $30)	4,500,000
Total paid in capital before stock dividend (15,000,000 + 4,500,000)	19,500,000
Total retained earnings before stock dividend	33,500,000
Total stockholder's equity before stock dividend (19,500,000 + 33,500,000)	$53,000,000
Total paid in capital common stock ($15,000,000 + 400,000 * 4% * $20)	$15,320,000
Total paid in capital preferred stock ( 150,000 * $30)	4,500,000
Total paid in capital after stock dividend	19,820,000
Total retained earnings after stock dividend (33,500,000 - 400,000 * 4% * $26)	33,084,000
Total stockholder's equity after stock dividend (19,500,000 + 33,500,000 + (416,000 - 320,000)	$53,096,000
