In march, stockholders of herbalife nutrition approved a 3-for-2 stock split. after the split, how many shares of herbalife stock will an investor have if she or he owned 400 shares before the split?

600 shares

Explanation:

If a 3-for-2 stock split will take place, for every 2 stocks that an investor has, he will receive three stocks. So this specific investors who owns 400 stocks will receive:

(400 / 2) x 3 = 200 x 3 = 600 stocks.

After the 3-for-2 stock split, the company will have 50% more stocks outstanding and the price of each stock should be reduced by one third. So the investor shouldn't earn any profit from this split since the market value of the investment should remain about the same (stock prices change daily whether the split takes place or not).
