The company had no preferred stock throughout the period 2018 through 2020. At December 31, 2018, total stockholders' equity was $287,500.

What will be an ideal response?


2020: Earnings per Share:($24,000 net income ? $0 preferred dividends) / 22,812 average number of common shares outstanding = $1.05Return on Common Equity:$24,000 net income / (($769,000 + $291,000) / 2) average stockholders' equity = 4.53%Dividend Yield:($1,500 / 22,812) dividends per common share / 24.00 closing market price per share = 0.27%Dividend Payout:$1,500 common dividends / $24,000 net income = 6.25%Total Payout:($1,500 common dividends + $37,500 common stock repurchases) / $24,000 net income = 162.50%Stock Repurchase Payout:162.50 total payout ? 6.25 dividend payout = 156.25%  2019: Earnings per Share:($28,750 net income ? $0 preferred dividends) / 17,500 average number of common shares outstanding = $1.64Return on Common Equity:$28,750 net income / (($291,000 + $287,500) / 2) average stockholders' equity = 9.94%Dividend Yield:($875 / 17,500) dividends per common share / 18.00 closing market price per share = 0.28%Dividend Payout:$875 common dividends / $28,750 net income = 3.04%Total Payout:($875 common dividends + $0 common stock repurchases) / $28,750 net income = 3.04%Stock Repurchase Payout:3.04 total payout ? 3.04 dividend payout = 0%
All of the company's profitability ratios decreased from 2019 to 2020 with the exception of the dividend payout ratio, which increased. This indicates decline in stockholder performance. However, the improved dividend payout ratio, coupled with the increase in the number of shares outstanding and change in treasury stock activity account for these fluctuations.
