    In the SOPL we show the dividends actually paid during the year, which is $104,000.

    In the SOFP we show nothing. (The only time a dividend will be shown as owing is if it had been declared and voted on before the end of the year, but had not yet been paid)

    Sorry – my mistake. No dividends are shown in the SOPL.

    The $104,000 will appear in the SOCE.

    (But if you knew this then why did you ask? 🙂 )
