Underhall Inc.’s common stock is currently selling for $108 per share. Underhall is
planning a new stock issue in the near future and would like to stimulate interest in the
company. The Board, however, does not want to distribute capital at this time.
Therefore, Underhall is considering whether to offer a 2-for-1 common stock split or a
100% stock dividend on its common stock. The best reason for opting for the stock split
is that
a.
it will not decrease shareholders’ equity.
b.
it will not impair the company’s ability to pay dividends in the future.
c.
the impact on earnings per share will not be as great.
d.
the par value per share will remain unchanged.
