Answer:

$99.3625

Explanation:

The computation of ex-dividend stock price is shown below:-

Ex-dividend stock price = Stock closing price - Stock dividend × (1 - tax rate)

= $105.64 - $7.75 × (1 - 19%)

= $105.64 - $7.75 × 0.81

= $105.64 - 6.2775

= $99.3625

Therefore for computing the ex-dividend stock price we simply applied the above formula.
