Maybe you're right.  I'll have to search through my Becker homework to find the example that got me thinking this way.

Hey I trust u and appreciate your help.

This is the conclusion I draw from page f7-27. Please correct me if I am thinking wrong.

- Dividends on Cumulative PS-subtracted regardless of whether they have been declared

- Dividends on Non-cumulative PS- subtract only dividends declared even if not paid.

Ok, I found it in SFAS 128.  you're right.  It's if they're declared, but nobody cares when they're paid for the non-cumulative.  For cumulative, it's just the passage of time, declaration nor payment matter.  Glad I read this board religiously. :)
