In: Finance
You own 40,000 shares of stock of a company, representing 6 percent ownership. The company plans a 3-for-2 stock split. After the split, How many shares would you own? What percentage of the company would you own?
3 for 2 stock split means that every shareholder who has earlier 2 share will now have 3 share.
Percentage of the company
Since before split you have 6 percent ownership and 40,000 shares it means total no. of shares in company before split would be:
So it means the percentage would be same even after stock split
I hope this clear your doubt.
