Answer 1

Answer:$50745

Step-by-step explanation:

Return on common stock holders equity (ROE) is the amount of return available to be distributed to the common stock holders after Interest, tax, and preference shareholders dividend have been deducted from the net income.

The common stock is the most risky because they are considered last in payment of return.

Net income minus preference dividend gives return to common stock holders.

$67245-$16500= $50,745
