Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is that Sara will not receive any dividend income .

Explanation:

Sara has bought the Plyler cabinets share ( 500 ) on Friday, May 29 but the plyler cabinets had declared dividend of $1.20 on a share on May 15, and the holders will get dividend on June 1 , which means she has bought the shares after the ex dividend date ( after 15th May ) so she will not receive any dividend income .
