3. As the dividends are paid out of the earnings of the company, any distribution of dividend will be made out of the retained earnings. Since the dividend delcared and distributed is a stock dividend, the retained earnings is converted into common stock. Therefore the reduction in retained earnings is offset by the increase in the paid up capital thereby having no eefect on the total stockholders' equity.
4.
Even though the retained earnings balance is $5,672,000 as on June 13, the company can declare a cash dividend of $560,000 as the company's cash balance is $560,000.
