Managing stock company
Creating company from scratch
Firstly, you have to be level 10 to create/open a Stock Company. By creating a company you automatically become the CEO of it.
Then you go to My Places> Shares Here you have the option to create a company or to “play” with the shares you already possess.
As you can see, you must pay 100 gold. 50 gold goes to the game and 50 goes inside your company as starting funds.
The CEO can propose "issue poll". He sets the total amount of shares he wants to create, and the price. These shares, if the poll is positive, are posted on the market with the voted price. In case that the CEO wants to change the price, he has the option to edit it. A poll will start again and shareholders will be asked about this change.
Paying dividends
There is an option on CEO panel which you can pay dividends to the shareholders with. As CEO you choose the total amount of gold you want to share. A poll is created where shareholders can vote. If it's positive then every share takes: total amount/total shares of companies. Dividends can be paid whenever the CEO wants and proposes it. There is no limit.
CEO can split shares on his panel. Your shares must have a minimal value of 2g and it costs 'X' golds. When CEO clicks on "Split shares" a law automatically starts and every shareholder gets a notification that they can cast their vote. Law lasts for the next 24 hours and there must be more than 75% shares cast to finish it.
