The purchase of Treasury Stock is typically recorded using the cost method. When the company resells shares of Treasury Stock pay attention to the price these shares are being sold for and the price originally paid to reacquire these shares. On the date of declaration of a cash dividend, the corporation is legally obligated to pay that dividend. When the company declares a cash or stock dividend keep in mind the previous stock transactions that have occurred; would these transactions have any affect on the amount of the cash dividend?

b$.$ Journalize the entries to record the transactions. No post ref is required in the journal. Refer to the chart of accounts for the exact wording of the account titles. CNOW journals do not use lines for journal explanations. Every line on a journal page is used for debit or credit entries.
