| | Dividend - definition of Dividend in Encyclopedia |
 | | When dividends are paid, shareholders in many countries, including the United States, suffer from double taxation of those dividends: the company pays income tax to the government when it earns any income, and then when the dividend is paid, the individual shareholder pays income tax to the government on the dividend payment. | | | The amount of the dividend is determined every year at the company's annual general meeting, and declared as either a cash amount or a percentage of the company's profit; see The dividend decision. | | | The dividend is calculated mainly on the basis of the company's unappropriated profit and its business prospects for the coming year. |
