1. Preference shares / preferred stocks - the shareholders get an agreed rate of dividend before the ordinary shareholders receive anything. 2. Ordinary shares / common stocks - the shareholders receive the remainder of the total profits appropriated for dividends. Exhibit 7-1: A company had 10,000 5% preference shares of RM1 each and 20,000 ordinary shares of RM1 each. The profits available for dividends are: Year 1 RM900, Year 2 RM1,300, Year 3 RM1,600, Year 4 RM3,100, and Year 5 RM2,000.
Non-cumulative preference shares • - the shareholders receive up to an agreed percentage each year. If the amount paid is less than the maximum agreed amount, the shortfall is lost by the shareholders. The shortfall cannot be carried forward and paid in a future year. • 4. Cumulative preference shares • - the shareholders have an agreed maximum percentage dividend, and any shortfall of dividend paid in a year can be carried forward.
Exhibit 7-2: A company has 50,000 ordinary shares of RM1 each and 20,000 5% non-cumulative preference shares of RM1 each. The profits available for dividends are: Year 1 RM1,500, Year 2 RM800, Year 3 RM2,500, Year 4 RM600, and Year 5 RM5,000.
Exhibit 7-3: Assume the preference shares in Exhibit 7-2 are cumulative preference shares. The dividends for preference shares and ordinary shares are as follows: • Authorized share capital • - the total of the share capital which the company is allowed to issue to shareholders. • - also known as registered capital or nominal capital. • Issued share capital • - the total of the share capital actually issued to shareholders.
