Answer:

a. Paid the stockholder a smaller dividend per share than another common stockholder.

c. Rejected the stockholder's request to vote via proxy because she was home sick.

d. The company did not provide all stockholders with timely financial reports.

Explanation:

A shareholder is a person that has contributed to the equity of a company and holds shares as evidence of ownership.

Shareholders have right to recieve equal dividend as other common shareholders. There can only be a difference in dividend payouts when the other person has more shares.

They also have the right to vote via proxy in cases where they are not available. The proxy is duly appointed by the shareholder.

The company is also mandated to provide timely financial reports to all stockholders.

Shareholders however are not involved in daily running of the business. So they have no say in hiring and firing of employees.

Also common shareholders are paid dividend after preference share holders have been settled by the company.
