2. Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

1. Micron's entry to record the dividend transaction is as follows:

Cash A/c Dr. $16,450

To Long - Term Investments $16,450

(In this case, since the holding interest is more than 20%, Equity method is used)

Dividend = $47,000 * 35%

= $16,450

2. The entry to record the receipt of dividend would be:

Cash A/c Dr. $12,000

To Dividend Revenue A/c $12,000

(To record the receipt of dividend)

Workings:

Dividend = 3,000 shares * $4 per share

= $12,000
