Why do dividend decisions based on an overstated profit lead to erosion of capital?
By definition, dividends are paid out of profits, they can not be paid out of anything else (not loans, not losses, etc). If the dividends paid exceed profits for the same period the distribution is considered a return of capital (stock basis, additional paid in captial, etc). So an overstated profit WILL reulst in "erosion of capital" if correction of the overstatement results in profits being less than dividends.
