Expert Solution
Step 1

Step 1

A dividend that is given to shareholders in the form of extra business shares is known as a stock dividend. Until the shares are sold by the owner, stock dividends are not subject to tax. Due to the issuance of additional shares, stock dividends, like stock splits, create a decrease in the share price.
