Cash dividend paid has nothing to deal with net income as net income is calculated first and after that it is distributed.

If cash dividend is received then it is included in net income calculations and increases the net income.

What is the entry by the recipient to record dividends declared Is dividend income recorded upon declaration of receipt of the cash?

When dividends are declared by a company, the recipient records the income by debiting "Dividends Receivable" and crediting "Dividend Income." This entry reflects the right to receive the dividend, even though the cash has not yet been received. Dividend income is recognized at the time of declaration, not when the cash is actually received. Therefore, the income is recorded when the dividend is declared, not upon receipt of the cash.

How does dividends affect net income?

Answer:Dividends are a distribution of net income. That means dividends is not included in the calculation of net income. Dividend payments do affect net income indirectly. If a company pays a dividend, cash is reduced. This cash can no longer be used to generate profits. That is why 'cash cow' companies pay out the bulk of their profits as dividends (few or no new investment opportunities available) and growth firms retain all profits.
