What is the amount transferred from the retained earnings account to paid-in capital accounts as a result of the stock dividend?

Answer :

Answer:

$20,460

Explanation:

Data provided as per the question below:-

Common stock = 33,000 shares

Market price per share = $31

Stock dividend percentage = 2%

The computation of stock dividend is shown below:-

Price per share = Common stock × Market price per share

= 33,000 × $31

= $1,023,000

Stock dividend = Price per share × Stock dividend percentage

= $1,023,000 × 2%

= $20,460
