Question

Which of the following is included in the rights of common stockholders?

a. Right to restrict preferred stock.
b. Right to dividend payment every year.
c. Right to purchase assets of the corporation.
d. Right to vote on certain matters.

Answer 1

Common stockholders' rights include the right to vote on certain matters, such as electing the board of directors; it does not guarantee annual dividend payments or asset purchase rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

Among the options provided, the one that is included in the rights of common stockholders is the right to vote on certain matters. As part-owners of a corporation, common stockholders have the right to vote on corporate issues such as electing the board of directors and approving major corporate policies or decisions. This does not guarantee a right to dividend payments every year, nor the right to purchase assets of the corporation, and it certainly does not entail the right to restrict preferred stock.

Answer 2

Answer: Right to Vote
