    Hi,

    I noted in the answer for Example 2 that all figures have been multiplied by a bonus fraction of 3/2, why is this the case?

    If so, should we use this as a fixed template and always use a fraction?

    Please confirm.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Yes, whenever there is a bonus issue we need to adjust the share in issue prior to this date by the bonus fraction.

    Thanks
