    The dividend income received is $752

    Explanation:

    In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of dividend income to be received on June 12 given that it takes two days to clear the transactions of ABC stock.

    Firstly, we need to calculate the total number of shares bought. To do this, we simply add the shares bought on the dates May 8, May 16 and May 20. This is 500 + 200 + 100 = 800 shares

    Hence we record that the number of shares is 800, with the dividend per share being 94 cents or $0.94

    The Dividend receivable = No of shares * Dividend per share = 800 * $0.94 = $752
