Which class of shareholders controls the company? Give your reasons.
The (common or preferred) shareholders control the company because (dividends are paid to preferred shareholders first./the number of common shares issued is higher than the preferred./ the preferred shares are nonvoting./the preferred shares are redeemable.)
Homework Answers
The common shareholders control the company because the preferred shares are nonvoting.
Explanation:
Companies issue either common or preferred shares. Common shares represent basic form of contributed capital and carry voting rights which allows them to control affairs of the company. Preferred shares are typically nonvoting and have priority over common shareholders in the payment of dividends and distribution of assets.
