Respuesta :

Answer:

option D is correct.

Explanation:

The entry to record stock dividend is:    

                                         Debit      

Stock Dividends        2400000      [[tex]= 1600000\times 0.10\times 15[/tex]]

                                        Credit

Stock Dividends  Distributable         1600000       [[tex]=  1600000\times 0.10 \times 10[/tex]]

Paid in capital in excess of par = 2400000 - 1600000 = 800000  

Stock dividends will not affect the total equity of the stockholder

Therefore option D is correct.
