Answer:

(1)

retained earnigns 19,800 debit

   common stock         19,800 credit

(2)

no entry required

Explanation:

396,000 common stock / $4 each = 99,000

99,000 shares x 5% = 4,950 new shares

4,950 shares x $4 each = 19,800 stock dividends

the split will not change the equity composition as the common stock will double but, also their value will be halved accordingly.
