Explanation / Answer

TVX Companya has 69000 shares of common stock outstanding on Feb 5, when it declares a 16% stock dividend. This means that 11040 (69,000 shares times 16%) new shares of stock will be issued to existing stockholders.

Common Stock Dividend Distributable

Paid up Capital in Excess of Par

110400

342240

When the 11040 shares are distributed to the stockholders, the following journal entry is made:

2. Total Stockholders Equity before Stock Dividend =1890000

No. of Shares outstanding before stock dividend = 69000

Book Value per share before stock dividend = 1890000/69000 = $27.391

Total Stockholders Equity after Stock Dividend :-

Common Stock Par value

(69000+11040 = 80040 shares* $10) = 800400

Paid up Capital in Excess of Par Value

(525000+342240) = 867240

Retained Earnings (675000-452640) = 222360

Total Stakeholders Equity After Stock dividend = 1890000

No. of Shares outstanding after stock dividend = 80040

Book Value per share after stock dividend =

1890000/80040 = $23.613

3. Investor's Shares before stock dividend = 600

Investor's Shares after stock dividend = 600 + (600*16%) = 696

600* 41=

$24600

696*35=

$24360
