    Dividends calculating
    Not sure how to calculate cash dividends.

    Say for ex. A company has two main shareholders one at 51%, and other at 49%. There was cash dividends paid out at $79000.

    Would you calculate 51% x 79000

    Pro rata basis unless there are papers to show otherwise. 51%X79,000 and 49%X79,000
