Rentarama is considering a 4:1 stock split. The stock current trades as $150 a share. Using the pre-split number of shares outstanding, the CFO has estimated the total dividend for the next year will be $6.40 per share. Assuming the stock split is implemented immediately, shareholders should expect the quarterly dividend to be closest to:__________.
A) $0.40
B) $1.60
C) $6.40

Respuesta :

Answer:

A) $0.40

Explanation:

Stock split implies that a single share is divided into multiples which means that 4:1 stock split means that after the stock a single share prior to the stock split is divided into 4.

Total dividend per share expected next year=$6.40

Now that a single share now commands 4

Revised dividend per share expected next year=$6.40*1/4=$1.60(annual dividend)

quarterly revised per share dividend expected in the coming year=$1.60/4=$0.40
