Answer:

no option is correct

Explanation:

stocks to be distributed = 13,000 x 12% = 1,560

1,560 stocks x $22 = $34,320

  • 1,560 x $6 = $9,360
  • 1,560 x ($22 - $6) = $24,960

the journal entry to record the declaration of a small stock dividend (less than 20% of outstanding stocks) should be:

Dr Retained earnings (1,560 x $22) 34,320

    Cr Common stock dividend distributable (1,560 x $6) 9,360

    Cr Additional paid in capital 24,960
