Explanation:
a) 111 millions shares x $0.50 = $55.5 millions
c)
111 millions x $18 per share x 6% = 119.88 millions
660,000 x $18 = 11.88 millions
net: 119.88 - 11.88 = 108 millons on shares
$108 millons / $18 per share = 6,000,000 shares
d)
111 + 6 new shares = 117 shares
$117 x $0.50 = $58.5 millons
f) 3-2 split gives 3 shares for every 2 shares
117 x 3/2 = 175.5 millons
175.5 millions x 0.35 per share = 61.425 million cash dividends
