1. Book value per share before the stock dividend

Book value per Share = Total Shareholder's Equity/ Total outstanding shares

Total shareholder's equity=4,360,000-2,230,000=2,130,000

Book Value per share before stock dividend=2,130,000/75000=28.40

2. Book value per share after the stock dividend

Shares issued in stock dividend=75,000* 1/5= 15,000

Total Outstanding shares=75000+15000=90,000

book value per share after the stock dividend=2,130,000/90,000=23.67

3 Total Book Value of Lennox Bing's stockholdings before the dividend

Number of shares owned by lennox=6000

Total book value per share=6000*28.40=170400
