At t=1, the index value = (102+50+26+30)÷4
= 52
Stock split does not affect the index value. We need to calculate the new divisor (d).
(102+50+26+30)÷d = 52
= 4
Therefore the new divisor for your price-weighted index is 4

Able, Baker, and Charlie are the only three stocks in an index. The stocks sell for $96, $315, and $112, respectively. If Baker undergoes a 2-for-1 stock split, what is the new divisor for the price-weighted index? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 5 decimal places.)
A price-weighted index consists of stocks A, B, and C which are priced at $55, $38, and $17 a share, respectively. The current index divisor is 2.5. What will the new index divisor be if stock A undergoes a 5-for-1 stock split?

A value-weighted index consisting of stocks A, B, and C was created yesterday. When the index was created, stocks A,B, and C traded for $80, $45, and $125, respectively. The number of shares outstanding for A,B, and C, was 500, 900, and 600 when the index was formed. Today, stocks A, B, and C trade for $65, $50, and $145, respectively. Find the return on the index from yesterday to today Round intermediate steps and your final answer to four...
QUESTION 3 A company wants to create a market value-weighted index from a group of stocks with a total market capitalization of $600,000. If the desired initial index value is 1,500, then what is the divisor? 400 QUESTION 4 A constituent stock of a market value-weighted index splits 2-for-1. Which one of the following best describes how the stock index changes? O The total market capitalization increases, divisor decreases, but the index value does not change following the stock split....
