iv) Cumulative Preference Shares

These can claim arrears as an example whether a company sold 10% Shs.20 preference shares and did not pay dividends for the after that two years, so in the third year shareholders will claim as:

10% x 20 x 3yrs   = Shs 6 less withholding tax:

                            = Shs 6 less 5% of Shs 0.30

                            = Shs 5.70 net

v)  Non-Cumulative Preference Shares

These cannot claim interest in arrears.

vi) Convertible

These can be converted in ordinary shares as that is optional.

Conversion ratio = par value of ordinary share/par value of preference shares as example of whereas par value of ordinary shares is Sh.10 and that of preference shares is Sh.20, then conversion ratio = 10/20=1/2 that is for every preference share you get 2 ordinary shares.

Conversion price par value of preference shares per no. of ordinary shares to be obtained.

20/2=shs10
