Hi, my girlfriend has some shares in Pearson and we are trying to work out how the dividend works. From research online I can see that the payment in May this year was 30p per share and the interim in Aug '12 was 15p per share. So does this mean if you had say 1000 shares you would receive £150 in August then £300 in May? Is that right or is there more to it? Any help greatly appreciated, thanks
