A reverse stock split implies a situation wherein a company merges existing common stock to create a more valuable (in terms of the stock's par value) common stock. In this case, every 5 existing common stock would be exchanged for 2 new common stock of the firm, under a 2 for 5 reverse stock split.
Therefore, number of new common stock = 16000 x (2/5) = 6400
New Par Value of Common Stock = 16000 / 6400 = $ 2.5 per share
Hence, the correct option is (D).
