Answer:

$2,600,000

Explanation:

total shares of ming company = 500000

the dividend = 10%

10% * 500000 = 50000

stock dividend amount = 50000 share x 30 dolarrs

= 1500000

outstanding shares aftrr dividend = 500000+(500000*10%)

= 500000 + 50000 = 550,000

cash dividend = $2 per share

= 550000 * 2

= 1100000

decrease in retained earning = stock dividend + cash dividend

= 1500000 + 1100000

= $2,600,000
