cash dividend. A dividend paid in cash (that is, by check) to holders of a firm's stock. Although the amount is usually based on profitability, it may temporarily exceed net income. Certain legal and contractual restrictions may limit a firm's ability to pay cash dividends.
dividends payable. The cash dividend payment reduces the company's resources (assets) as the cash flows out to owners. The company's sources of resources (liabilities) decrease by $2,000 because the company no longer owes them the $2,000 once the dividends are paid.ividends payable.
