Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the above information, we will calculate first the revised stock

Revised stock

= 50,000 × $2

= 100,000

Then,

The Dividend par share

= 100,000 × $0.40

= $40,000

The sum of $40,000 will be reported as divided as the number of shares outstanding has doubled due to stock split
