Explanation / Answer

Answer to Part a.

Current Common Stock Outstanding = 1,200 Shares
Stock Dividend declared = 25%
No. of Common Shares declared as Dividend = 1,200 * 25%
No. of Common Shares declared as Dividend = 300 Shares

Number of Shares held after Stock Dividend = 1,200 Shares + 300 Shares
Number of Shares held after Stock Dividend = 1,500 Shares

Answer to Part b.

Total Value of Equity after Stock Dividend is Paid = 1,200 * $115
Total Value of Equity after Stock Dividend is Paid = $138,000

As, Net Change in Equity on declared of Stock Dividend is Nil.

Answer to Part c.

Current Common Stock Outstanding = 1,200 Shares
Stock Split = 5 to 4 Shares

No. of Shares after Stock Split = 1,200 / 4 * 5
No. of Shares after Stock Split = 1,500 Shares
