Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a).

Journal Entry:-

Stock dividend A/c (1,050,000 × 10%  × $52)    Dr.$5,460,000

To paid in capital in excess of par-common stock A/c  $105,000

($1,050,000 × 10%)

To common stock A/c          $5,355,000

(Being the declaration and the distribution of the dividend is recorded)

For recording this we debited the stock dividend as it increased the dividend account and credited the common stock and paid in capital as it increased the stockholder equity

b).  Now the effect is presented below:

Assets  +  Liabilities  =  Stockholder ‘s EquityAmount ($)

                             Retained earnings-5,460,000

                           Paid  in capital in excess of par-common stock  105,000

                               Common stock5,355,000

c).

Journal Entry

Stock dividend A/c   (1,050,000 × 100% × $1)    Dr. $1,050,000

To Common stock A/c          $1,050,000

(Being the declaration and the distribution of the dividend is recorded)

For recording this we debited the stock dividend as it increased the dividend account and credited the common stock as it increased the stockholder equity

d).  Now the effect is

Assets + Liabilities  =Stockholder ‘s EquityAmount ($)

                      Retained earnings-1,050,000

                      Common stock           $1,050,000
