    To record the dividend declaration

    Ordinary Share Capital $90000

    Dividend Payable $90000

    to record payment

    Dividend Payable $90000

    Cash $90000

    The amount is derived from the shares issued and outstanding so, the 190000 issued is deducted by 10000 treasury shares because treasury shares are reacquired by the company so it is not an outstanding share, then just multiply the answer with the dividend per share to arrive at $90000

    190000-10000shares * $.50 = $90000
