Abstract:
Dividends represent a crucial aspect of the relationship between companies and their shareholders, serving as
a means of distributing profits to investors. They are a part of the company’s profit that goes to each shareholder
according to the classes and according to the number of shares he has. Dividends are distributed after withholding tax. They are usually paid once a year, but if the financial situation of the company allows, dividends can be paid even more often. On the accounting front, dividends must be accurately recorded in the company’s financial statements, reflecting the reduction of earnings and the distribution of funds to shareholders. Understanding the fiscal and accounting treatment of dividends is essential for businesses and investors alike, facilitating informed decision-making and regulatory compliance in a dynamic financial landscape. Moreover, the article discusses the implications of dividend decisions on the company’s capital structure and investor confidence, highlighting the need for a balanced approach to dividend distribution that aligns with the organization’s overall financial strategy.
