Answer:
The journal entry is as follows:
Retained earnings A/c Dr. $18 million
To common stock $0.30 million
To capital paid in excess A/c $17.70 million
(To record the stock dividend issued at 1%)
Working notes:
Shares issued = 1% of 30 million
= 0.30 million
Retained earnings:
= 0.30 million × $60 per share
= $18 million
Common stock:
= 0.30 million × $1 par value
= $0.30 million
Capital paid in excess:
= Retained earnings - Common stock
= $18 million - $0.30 million
= $17.7 million

Answer: All of the other answer choices are true.
Explanation:
FIFO simply refers to “First-In, First-Out” and the method assumes that the oldest goods that are in the inventory of a company have been sold first and therefore, the costs that are paid for them will be used for the calculation.
The following are true regarding the FIFO method:
• FIFO under a perpetual inventory system results in the same cost of goods sold as FIFO under a periodic inventory system.
• A company can choose to account for the flow of inventory using the FIFO method even if this doesn’t match the actual flow of its inventory.
• Perishable goods often follow an actual physical flow that is consistent with the FIFO method assumptions.
Therefore, the correct option is D as all are true.
