Dividend revenue $36,000 (income statement)

 

Equity method

Share of results in associate company $96,000 (income statement)

 

Working notes:

 

1) Calculation of dividend received :

No. of shares held = 30,000

Dividend per share = $0.30

The dividend per quarter = 30,000* $0.30 = $9,000

 

2) In equity method stock investment is 30,000* $34 per share = $1,020,000

Unrealized gain equity is $1,020,000 – $800,000 = $220,000

 

3) Dividend revenue is 4*$9,000 = $36,000
