Explanation:

Note:

Shares issued at par value only increase the capital stock and does not affect the additional paid in capital and the retained earnings.

Shares issued for value more than its par value will increase the additional paid in capital also.

Split off only changes the number of shares as there is no change in overall value, therefore, no effect on any part of equity.

Stock dividend is also capitalization of retained earnings, it decreases retained earnings, and increases capital stock.

Cash dividend only decreases the retained earnings.

Also when dividends are declared then only it is recorded, the date when it is issued does not matter.

Net income if understated would represent a less net income then what it should be, so when it is corrected it will increase and so does the retained earnings increase.
