Explanation / Answer

Problem 1 & Problem 2

jan 5 shares are 72000 shares

Dividend on jan 5 is 72000* 0.5 => $36000

October 5 shares are 47200 + 42080 => 89280 shares

Dividend on October 5 = 89280* 0.5 => $44640

Problem 3

Stock capitalization = 89280 shares *5 per share => 446400*20% => 89280

CAPITALIZATION AMOUNT $ 89280

Problem 4

COST PER SHARE = 50000/4000 => 12.5 per share

Problem 5

NET INCOME = $420000 - $ 360000

NET INCOME => $60000
