Assume that you own 6,000 shares of Briant, Inc.'s, common stock and that you currently receive cash dividends of $0.6 per share per year.

Required:

a. If Briant, Inc., declared a 4% stock dividend, how many shares of common stock would you receive as a dividend?

b. Calculate the cash dividend per share amount to be paid after the stock dividend that would result in the same total cash dividend (as was received before the stock dividend). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

c. If the cash dividend remained at $0.6 per share after the stock dividend, what per share cash dividend amount without a stock dividend would have accomplished the same total cash dividend? (Round your answer to 3

	This dividend policy would result in greater cash dividend per share.
	This dividend policy would result in greater total cash dividends every year without changing the cash dividend per share.
