Solution
1)Amount capitalized for stock dividend declared = shares issued and outstanding on date stock
dividend declared* market value * % of stock dividend
= (40,000 - 3,000 ) *10 * .20
= 37,000 *10 *.20
= $ 74,000
2)per share cost of treasury stock purchased = cost of treasury stock /number of shares held as
treasury
= 50,000 / 3,000
= $ 16.67 per share
3)Net income = Retained earning balance at end - balance at beginning + DIvidend paid
= 400,000 - 340,000 +137,360**
= $ 197,360
**Dividend paid:
5jan - 40,000 *.40 =$ 16000

2. apr5- (40000-3000)*.40 = $ 14,800
july5-(40000-3000).40 = $ 14,800
july 31 -(37000*10*.20)= $74,000
5oct -(47400-3000)*.4 = 17760
total dividend = $ 137,360
