A firm that maintains a stable dollar dividend per share will generally not increase the dividend
  unless
 
  A) a stock split occurs.

Question 2

Suppose the 360-day forward exchange rate is 1.657 dollars per British pound, and the current spot
  rate is 1.625 dollars per British pound.
 
  If the 360-day interest rate in the United States is 5 and the
  360-day interest rate in Great Britain is 3, is the market in equilibrium according to the interest
  rate parity theory?
  A) No, because the forward premium on the pound is 2 while the interest rate in the United
  States is 67 higher than the interest rate in Great Britain.
  B) No, because the higher interest rate in the United States (2) implies that the forward
  exchange rate should be 2 lower than the current spot rate.
  C) Yes, because the forward premium on the pound (2) is exactly offset by the lower interest
  rate in Great Britain.
  D) Cannot be determined without knowing the amount of money being exchanged.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
