Alternative-4: (5,00,00012% ) + (6,00,00050%)10% = 60,000+30,000= 90,000
ii). Calculation of Preference Dividend:

Alternative-2: (6,00,00011% ) = 66,000
ii). Calculation of No. of Shares:

Alternative-1: (10,00,000  100) = 10,000 shares
Alternative-2: (10,00,000  100) = 10,000 shares
Alternative-3: (10,00,000  100) + (6,00,000  100) = (10,000+6,000) = 16,000 shares
Alternative-4: (10,00,000  100) + (6,00,00050%)  100 = (10,000+3,000) = 13,000 shares
