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

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.
