accumulative dividend

Read a random definition: distrein

A quick definition of accumulative dividend:

An accumulative dividend is a part of a company's earnings or profits that is distributed to its shareholders. It can be in the form of cash or additional shares. A cumulative dividend grows from year to year when not paid and is usually on preferred shares. It must be paid in full before common shareholders may receive any dividend. If the corporation does not pay a dividend in a particular year or period, it is carried over to the next year or period and must be paid before the common shareholders receive any payment.

A more thorough explanation:

An accumulative dividend is a type of dividend that grows from year to year when not paid. It is usually on preferred shares, and it must be paid in full before common shareholders may receive any dividend. If the corporation does not pay a dividend in a particular year or period, it is carried over to the next year or period and must be paid before the common shareholders receive any payment.

For example, if a company declares a $1 accumulative dividend on preferred shares and does not pay it in the first year, the dividend will accumulate to $2 in the second year. The company must pay the $2 dividend before any common shareholders receive a dividend.

Accumulative dividends are different from noncumulative dividends, which do not accrue for the benefit of a preferred shareholder if there is a passed dividend in a particular year or period.

Help us make LSD better!

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
