Shares and Dividends ICSE Class 10 Maths Notes OP Malhotra 2026-27
Introduction
- A share is one of a finite number of portions in the capital of a company.
- The person who subscribe in shares is called a share holder.
- The profit distributed by the company among shareholders is called dividend.
Types of shares – There are two types of shares namely Common and Preferred
The common shares are also called Equity shares.
Important Definitions –
- The amount invested to start a company is called the capital stock.
- Face Value(F.V) or Nominal Value(N.V) is the original value printed on the share.
- Market Value(M.V) is the price at which the share is bought or sold in the market.
Important Notes –
- If the market value of a share is the same as it’s nominal value , the share is said to at par.
- If the market value of share is more than it’s face value , the share is said to at above par or at premium.
- If the market value of share is less than it’s face value , the share is said to be below par or at a discount.
- The dividend is always calculated on the face value and not on the market value.
- The dividend is expressed as a percentage of the nominal value of the share.
- The shares are generally of two types:
(i) Preferred shares
(ii) Common or ordinary shares
Important Formulas –
- Investment = Number of shares × Market Value of 1 share
- Number of shares bought = Sum invested/(M.V of 1 share)
- Number of shares bought = Total dividend/(Dividend on 1 share)
- Number of shares bought = Total Income/(Income on 1 share)
- Income = Number of shares × rate of dividend × F.V
- F.V = Face value = Nominal value = N.V
- Return % = Income Profit %
