ABC's capital structure is as follows:
Common Stock ($4 par) $90 mil
Paid-in capital in excess 300 mil
Retained Earnings 700 mil
Currently, the stock is selling at $260. If the firm does a 5 for 1 split, which of the following would be correct after the split?
Par value = $20 Number of shares = 112.5 mil Stock price = $52 |
||
Par Value = $.80 Number of shares = 112.5 mil Stock price = $52 |
||
Par value = $.80 Number of shares = 450 mil Stock price = $52 |
||
Par value = $20 Number of shares = 112.5 mil Stock price = $208 |
Before Stock Split:
Par value per share = $4.00
Number of shares = Common stock / Par value per share
Number of shares = $90 million / $4.00
Number of shares = 22.50 million
Stock price per share = $260.00
After Stock Split:
Firm does a 5 for 1 stock split which means 5 shares are given for each share.
Par value per share = $4.00 * (1/5)
Par value per share = $0.80
Number of shares = 22.50 million * 5
Number of shares = 112.50 million
Stock price per share = $260.00 * (1/5)
Stock price per share = $52.00
