    Is preference share dividend outstanding for the year included in the income Statement?

    What if the preference share dividend is divided into two instalments and only one instalment is paid ? Do I included the total dividend in the income statement even if one is not paid?

    Yes, because it is a fixed amount.

    The instalment not yet paid is a liability on the SOFP.

    The full dividend for the year is shown on the SOPL.
