    Answer: $2,100

    Explanation:

    Given:

    No. of shares 24,000 of $100 par

    Dividend per year = (100 shares X $100 par) X 7% = $700

    Since, the preferred stock is cumulative, the holders will receive past dividends not distributed.

    From 2016: 700

    From 2017: 700

    From 2018: 700

    Total = $2,100
