Homework Answers

Answer #1

Reverse stock Split: In reverse stock split the stock is reduced with increase in value of shares

Forward stock Split : In Forward stock split, the number of shares is increased while the value of the shares decrease.

Treasury Stock; Treasury stock is the buy back of shares issued by the company.

Calculation of Outstanding Shares

Given, opening bal of shares on On Jan 1 - 15,000

march 3 - Reverse stock split 3 for 5 - 15,000 * (3/5) = 9,000

Jun 2017 - 25% stock dividends = 9,000 *25% = 2,250

Oct 2018 - Forward split 4 for 3 = (9,000+2,250 *(4/3) = 15,000

Feb 2019 - Treasury stock = 3,000

Total Outstanding shares = 15,000 - 3,000 = 12,000

calculation of Value per share

Value per share = (15,000 * $6) / 12,000

= $90,000 / 12,000

Value per share = $7.5
