Expert Solution

Stock dividend:
When the stock dividend % is more than 20-25%, it is said to be a large stock dividend
It will not affect the par value per share
Here,100 % stock dividend is declared
Hence shares to be issued=Number of shares issued and outstanding100%=170000100%=170000 shares
Stock dividend has to be recorded at par value since it is a case of large stock dividend.So, ignore stock price
Journal entry:
		Debit	Credit
Retained earnings	(100000*$1)	100000
Common stock			100000

Common stock will increase to $270000 (170000+100000)

Stock split:
2-1 stock split means 2 shares are issued for 1 exising share
It will halve the par value
Par value per share=1*1/2=$ 0.50 per share
Number of shars issued and outstanding will be doubled
Number of shares=170000*2/1=340000 shares
Common stock=340000*0.50=$ 170000

				Case 1	Case 2
Number of outstanding shares before stock transactions				170000	170000
Par value per share				$ 1	$ 0.5

Statement of stockholder's equity:
				Case 1	Case 2
Common stock				270000	170000
Additional paid in capital		(No change in both cases)		110000	11000
Retained eanings				90000	190000
				(190000-100000)	(No change)
