d) $75,000 in total

Explanation:

The computation of the annual dividend on the preferred stock is shown below:

= Number of shares * par value per share * dividend percentage

= 10,000 shares * $125 * 6%

= $75,000

We simply multiplied the number of shares with the oar value and the dividend percentage so that the accurate amount can be calculated
