Answer:

Common stock Credit $ 1,000

2. large (100%) stock dividend -

Common stock Credit $ 10,000

3. a 2-for-1 stock split -

No Journal Entry required.

Explanation:

Requirement 1

Explanation: Total paid up capital = 10,000 shares x $30 = $300,000

Common stock = 10,000 shares x $1 = $10,000

Additional paid in capital $(30 - 1) = $29

10,000 shares x $29 = $290,000

Therefore, stock dividend = $300,000 x 10% = $30,000

And for common stock = $10,000 x 10% = $1,000

Additional paid in capital = $290,000 x 10% = $29,000

Requirement 2 & 3.

2. Total paid up capital = 10,000 shares x $30 = $300,000

of them, common stock = 10,000 shares x $1 = $10,000

As there is a large stock dividend, the dividend will only from common stock par value. Therefore, the stock dividend will be = $10,000 x 100% = $10,000

3. As the stock does not provide any cash, instead only giving more stock, it will not require any journal entries. Stock may be changed, but cash dividend remains same.
