Assuming no market imperfections or tax effects exist, what will the share price be after: a. SMO has a four-for-three stock split? b. SMO has a 10 percent stock dividend? c.

New shares outstanding c. New shares outstanding d. New shares outstanding

Explanation / Answer

a) New share price = current share price/split ratio

=90/(4/3) = 67.5

b) New share price = current share price/(1+dividend percentage)

=90/(1+0.1) = 81.82

c)

New share price = current share price/(1+dividend percentage)

=90/(1+0.435) = 62.72

d)New share price = current share price/reverse split ratio

=90/(4/7) = 157.5

e) shares outstanding

a = 510000*4/3 = 680000

b = 510000*1.1 = 561000

c = 510000*1.435 = 731850

d = 510000*4/7 =291428.57
