Answer:

$0.25

Explanation:

25,000 shares x 2% x $50 preferred stocks = $25,000

150,000 x $25 common stocks

$62,500 - $25,000 = $37,500

$37,500 / 150,000 shares = $0.25 per share

dividend yield = $0.25 / $25 = 1%

Dividend yield measures the amount of money paid to stockholders based on the cash dividends per share divided by share price.
