Yes, 2 records on 3 accounts. and Dividend Declarations register will always be 
minus as stated in my prev email.

This is because Dividend Declarations only take money out of the business. 
There is no money coming in. That minus doesn't affect anything. And when the 
balance is generated this debit is balanced.
