If the firm management is right about the stimulating effect of disgorging cash,
do you think that the drop in stock price after the ex-dividend date will be smaller than
otherwise expected? Why or why not?
1. The underlying motivation for the large payout, it is possible that the stock price would
not fall by $40.
2. The firms had just admitted that its growth days are over, thus the price will probably
fall by more than $40.

a. Dividend = $1.50 x 5000 shares $ 7,500 Equity 7,500
Cash 7,500
Equity berkurang 7500 ; Cash berkurang 7,500

after the dividend payment, the total market value of stock held would still fall by $7.500.
