<u>The journal entry will be as follow:</u>

Dec 31th

Retained Earnings            200,000 debit

Stock Dividends Payable      200,000 credit

to record declared stock dividends

Jan 20th

Stock Dividends payable    200,000 debit

         Additional paid-in                               160,000 credit

Explanation:

The company will issue 20% stock

100,000 shares x 20% = 20,000 shares

The company cost for this 20,000 will be the market value

20,000 shares x $10 = 200,000

This will be compare with the face value of the shares to calculate the adidtional paid-in:

20,000 sahres x $2 face value = 40,000 common stock

200,000 market value - 40,000 face value = 160,000 additional paid-in

<u>The journal entry will be as follow:</u>

Dec 31th

We declare the dividends against retained earnings, from there we will take the funds to pay the dividends

Jan 20th

The dividends will be paid with common stock so we write-off the dividdends payable again the issued stock and their aditioanl paid-in.
