    Explanation:

    The computation of the cost of preferred stock is shown below:

    Cost of preferred stock = Annual dividend : Price of preferred stock per share

    = $15 : $145.23

    = 10.3284%

    Simply we divide the annual dividend by the price of preferred stock per share so that the correct cost of preferred stock can be computed
