c. is correct.
In a 2 for 1 stock split, one share is replaced by two shares. therefore one share which has a par value of $5.00 shall be split inot two shares of $2.50 each.
Common stock | A | 50000 |
Par value per share | B | $5.00 |
Number of shares (A/B) | C | 10000 |
PIC - Excess par value | D | 65000 |
Total paid up value (A + D) | E | 115000 |
Average Issue price per share (E / C) | F | $11.50 |
Number of treasury shares | G | 2000 |
Number of shares outstanding (C - G) | H | 8000 |
Therefore we can say that only b and c are true.
