I had 2 yrs Algebra, opened my sons Algebra book and didn't recongnize a thing. I didn't take Accounting until college, but by that time I sometimes understood better than the teacher. Experience counts.

Definitely looks like they are making sure you know the difference between 'declared' and 'paid'. As stated you would not need to make any entry for the declared dividend on the SOCF.

When doing my cash flows from financial activities I don't know how to enter the amount for less cash paid for dividends. I hope I am making sense and sorry if I am not. This is so new to me. |
if it is asking for "less cash paid for dividends" I think that just means what you originally paid for it (the shares, etc). if the dividends paid were 112,320 less 100,000 (just using this as an example of what it originally cost) then the earnings on the dividends would be 12,320.00

Dividends don't "originally" cost anything. It's not something you buy and then resell. |
