Explanation:

Ultimate sportswear has $100,000 of 8% noncumulative stock, preferred outstanding stock

They also have $500,000 of common stock outstanding

The company made a cash dividend payment of $30,000

Therefore the preferred stock dividend and common stock dividend can be calculated as follows

Preferred stock dividend

=$100,000×8/100

= $100,000×0.08

= $8,000

Common stock dividend= $30,000-$8,000

= $22,000

Hence the preferred stock dividend is $8,000 and the common stock dividend is $22,000
