primary aspects of their investments
income, risk, and control.


16. COMMON AND PREFERRED
Shares of stocks are generally classified
into common stocks and preferred
shares.
 Both types are transferable and are
entitled to dividends.

fundamental rights of stockholders.


17. THEIR MAIN DIFFERENCES ARE:
1.
2.
Common stocks represents equity or the
permanent capital of the firm. Preferred
stock is of doubtful investment status.
Modern finance relegates preferred
shares to the category of debt
instruments rather than permanent
investments.
Common stocks have voting rights in the
election and removal of the directors, a
right generally denied preferred shares.

Preferred stocks have special privileges
to compensate for the restrictions on its
voting rights, commonly in priority to the
earnings and assets over common
shares.
Preferred shares have fixed dividend
rates. Dividends to common stocks
depend upon the amount declared
available to common stocks.

wish to restrict the voting privileges or
dividend rights of some common stocks.

assets become significant where the
company’s dividends or assets are not
sufficient to satisfy legitimate claims of all
types of shares.

dividends for periods where there are no
earnings.

 These are stocks which are subject to
redemption or recall, or simply repurchase
by the issuing corporation.
 Callable shares of the “optional” variety
are redeemable at the option of the
company, in other words, stockholders
may not force redemption of such shares.

usually above the purchase or par value
price of the shares.

29. Sinking funds for redemption

shares are required to come from the earnings
of the issuing company

corporation maintains a sinking fund for
redemption purposes.
