    B. preference shares

    Explanation:

    Option A is wrong because equity shares provide a different rate of dividends to a shareholder. Equity shares are known as ordinary shares. Therefore, option C is wrong.

    There are no priority shares in the components of stockholders' equity. Hence option D is wrong.

    Investment security does not give any dividends. So option E is wrong.

    Option B is correct because preference shares give a fixed rate of dividend.
