$18

Explanation:

There are 24. million shares and $0.001 per share

Common stock=24500000×$0.001=$24500

At the time of the split

Dr common stock distributable       $24500

Cr common stock                                                $24500

If the price is $36  

We need to find the share price after the split

The split is 2 is to one according to the reverse split stock this causes the the $1 par values to be one and half of the $2 dollar par value

so one and half of $36 =$18
