Acompany has preferred stock with a current market price of $18 per share. the preferred stock pays an annual dividend of 4% based on a par value of $100. flotation costs associated with the sale of preferred stock equal $1.50 per share. the company's marginal tax rate is 40%. therefore, the cost of preferred stock is

Dividend (D) = 4% x $100 = $4

Current market price (Po) = $18

Flotation cost (FC) = $1.50

Tax rate (T) = 40% = 0.40

Kp =   D

       Po-FC

Kp =    $4

        $18-$1.50

Kp = $4

      $16.5

Kp = 0.24 = 24%

Explanation:

Cost of preferred stock equals dividend divided by the difference between current market price and flotation cost. Cost of preferred stock is not tax deductible.
