$10,000

Explanation:

Given:

Total shares = 1,000

Value of shares = 5%, $100 par value

Now,

The annual preferred dividend = $5 × 1,000

or

The annual preferred dividend = $5,000

Therefore,

The dividends in arrears on December 31,2016 was $5,000

Hence,

The 2017 preferred dividends would be

=  dividends in arrears on December 31,2016 + Dividends for 2017

= $5,000 + $5,000

= $10,000
