HI,
Net Income = $21 million
common shares outstanding = 3 million
so EPS before dividend = Net Income/common shares outstanding = 21/3 = $7 per share
then 12% stock dividend has been decided.
and it would be treated same as stock split. because if 12% stock dividend divided that means for each share 0.12 value is paid to shareholder.
That means new number of shares =3*(1+12%) = 3.36 million shares
and Earning per share after dividend = 21/3.36 = $6.25 per share
Thanks
