350+140-60-30-100

take into account all dividend "paid" not proposed
minus any transfer to reserves

According to IAS 10, Events after the statement of financial position date, proposed dividends are non-adjusting events as they have been proposed after the drawing up of financial statements and have no part in the accounts.
This way:
  • neither it will appear in Statement of changes in equity
  • nor in the Bank a/c
  • nor will it be in the Current liabilities section.
The ans, should therefore be 350 + 140 - 60 - 30 - 100 = $300 and the ans. is C.

Proposed dividends are no longer treated. If a dividend is proposed, it means that directors have recommended the dividend but they cannot pay that unless the ordinary share holders approve of it. The approval is given after final accounts are published for the year end and that is usually done till couple of months of next year. For example, the published accounts for 31st Dec 2013 (year end) would be available to the share holders till March 2014, when they'd approve of the dividend, only then it would be paid. According to IAS 10.

It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest
