Dividends

A.  Cash Dividends—decision to pay these dividends rest with BOD and is based on evaluating the amounts of retained earning and cash as well as many other factors.

   Cash Dividend Entries—reduce in equal amounts both cash and the retained earnings component of stockholders' equity.

a.   At declaration—Debit Retained Earnings and credit Dividends Payable.

b.   At payment—Debit Dividends Payable and credit Cash.

B.   Stock Dividends—Distribution of additional shares of stock to stockholders without receipt of any payment in return. They do not reduce assets or total equity, just the components of equity.

1.      Reasons for a stock dividend

a.       To keep the market price of stock affordable.

b.      To provide evidence of management's confidence that the company is doing well.

2.      Accounting for stock dividends—transfers a portion of equity from retained earnings to contributed capital (called capitalizing retained earnings)

a.      Small stock dividend is 25% or less of the issuing corporation's previously outstanding shares; the market value of the shares to be distributed is capitalized.

b.       Large stock dividend is more than 25% of the shares outstanding before the dividend; only the legally required minimum amount (par or stated value of shares) must be capitalized.

c.       Declaration entry—Debit Retained Earnings (full capitalized amount), credit Common Stock Dividend Distributable (par value of dividend shares) and credit Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par (any capitalization above par).

d.      Payment entry—Debit Common Stock Dividend Distributable and credit Common Stock (to transfer par).

C.   Stock Splits
The distribution of additional shares of stock to stockholders according to their percent of ownership. Involves “calling in” the outstanding shares of stock and replacing them with a larger number of shares that have a lower par value.
