Which of the following generally not result in increase in total dividend liability ?

If the company liability is increase then obviously company faces the loss then they can't issue bonus, Right issue, share slipt.

so ans is (e).

The correct answer is (e)

In all the cases (a, b & c), the total number of shares increases and so the dividend liability. 

Answer option (a)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>  Share-split

In share split though the number of shares increases the Paid up capital remain unchanged and the dividend payout remains the same.

In Right Issue and Bonus issue, the number of shares as well as Paid up capital increases and the New Rights shares and Bonus shares are eligible for pro-rata dividend at the time of declaration of dividend.

In fact, as a dividends liability, it will be raised because of the real increase in the obligation to be more for only the shareholders. In the given examples, all of them either do not  cause an increase of the dividends liability , or cause increase in other liability which is not a dividends. So the correct answer is C.. all of he above.

Answer  A  is the right option .

(a)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Share-split

Obviously Share split will not increase any additional liability.

Bonus issue does not result in increase in total dividend liability.

It depends  on the dividend policy. If it is5% of face value. Then (a)Share-split  is the only right answer.

According   to   what  I  understand  I  think  the  second  answer

(b)Right Issue

(b) Right issue - (this is my guess)
