Dividends are payments made by a corporation to its
shareholder members. It is the portion of corporate profits
paid out to stockholders. When a corporation earns a profit
or surplus, that money can be put to two uses: it can
either be re-invested in the business (called retained
earnings), or it can be paid to the shareholders as a
dividend. Many corporations retain a portion of their
earnings and pay the remainder as a dividend.
Basically, dividend takes various forms and these can be
refer to types of dividend. These are; cash dividend, sock
dividend etc. However, dividend can be regarded as
share/apportion of profit to shareholder after interest and
tax, and not interest on money invested because it can only
be paid when company realised profit.

Benjamin O'Henry has owned and operated O'Henry's Data Services since its beginning ten years ago. From all appearances, the business has prospered. In the past few years, you have become friends with O'Henry and his wife. Recently, O'Henry mentioned that he has lost his zest for the business and would consider selling it for the right price. You are interested in buying this business, and you obtain its most recent monthly unadjusted trial balance which follows: O'Henry's Data Services Unadjusted Trial Balance November 30, 20XX Cash……………………………… $9,700 Accounts receivable……………………… 7,900 Prepaid expenses………… 2,600 Furniture, fixtures, & equipment 151,300 Accumulated depreciation $15,600 Accounts payable………… 3,800 Salary payable……………… Unearned service revenue 6,700 Benjamin O'Henry, capital 137,400 Benjamin O'Henry, withdrawals 2,000 Service revenue………… 14,300 Rent expense…………… Salary expense………… 3,400 Utilities expense……… 900 Depreciation expense Supplies expense…… Total…………………………………………. $177,800 $177,800 Revenues and expenses vary little from month to month, and November is a typical month. Your investigation reveals that the unadjusted trial balance does not include the effects of monthly revenues of $2,100 and monthly expenses totaling $2,750. If you were to buy O'Henry's Data Services, you would hire a manager who would require a monthly salary of $3,000. The most you would pay for the business is 20 times the monthly net income you could expect to earn from it. Compute this possible price. The least O'Henry will take for the business is his ending capital. Compute this amount. Under these conditions, how much should you offer O'Henry? Give your reason. I have the mathimatical part ok , please give reasons on how much and why I they would offer him the amount.
