Determine the share price at 5/3 stock split

SharePrice=[CurrentSharePrice×StockSplit]=[$73×(35)]=$43.80

Therefore the share price at 5/3 stock split is $43.80.

Determine the number of shares outstanding at 5/3 stock split

Therefore the share price at 15% stock dividend is $63.48.

Determine the number of shares outstanding at 15% stock dividend

NumberofSharesOutstanding=[StocksOutstanding×(1+StockDividend)]=[465,000×(1+15%)]=534,750shares
