Explanation:

Jan 16th cash dividends 950 shares x $100 par x 4% = $3,800

90,000 shares x 0.30 per share = 27,000

Total 27,000 + 3,800 = 30,800

July 30th:

value of the stock dividends:

90,000 shares x $10 x 50% = 450,000

recorded when distributed.

Treasury stock: we record at cost. Then at sale date we compare with this cost and determinate wether we create an additional paid-in for the stock or if we should decrease retained earnings when sale at "loss"

purchase: 1,400 shares x $9 per share = 12,600

sale 700 x $11 = 7,700

cost 700 x $ 9 = 6,300

addtional paid in TS 1,400

second sale 500 x $ 6 = 3,000

cost               500 x $ 7 = 3,500

decrease in additional paid-in TS 500

the answer is account d
