	Debit	Credit
Marketable Securities	150,000
Gain on Marketable Securities		150,000

Since retained earnings are used to fund the dividend, a second journal entry is needed on the date of declaration.

	Debit	Credit
Retained Earnings	9,75000
Property Dividends Payable		9,75000

On 15^th December the following journal entry is made to reflect the distribution of the property dividend to shareholders:

	Debit	Credit
Dividends Payable	9,75000
Marketable Securities		9,75000
