for proposed dividend to be entered in profit and loss appropriation account we need to deduct calls in arrears from called up capital/share capital,and the value we get should be multiplied with the rate given in adjustment.
eg:share capital:5,00,000 calls in arrears:5000
Adjustment given is:The director proposed a final dividend at 15%.
Therefore the solution would be:5,00,000-5000=4,95,000*15%=74,250

A dividend calculator helps you figure out your returns. You will plug in interest, rate, and the amount, and it will calculate the payments you will receive.
The dividend rate for preference shares is calculated by dividing the annual dividend payment by the nominal value (or par value) of the shares and then multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage. For example, if a preference share has a nominal value of $100 and an annual dividend of $5, the dividend rate would be ($5 / $100) × 100 = 5%. This rate indicates the return that investors can expect from holding the preference shares.
To calculate the dividend paid in a cash flow statement, you would look at the "financing activities" section and find the line item that represents dividends paid to shareholders. This amount represents the cash paid out to shareholders as dividends during the specified period.
