in BF, all issued shares must be paid a dividend, even if it's the issuer that holds them. It's kinda annoying if you are still trying to sell shares and are forced to have enough btc pay yourself in order to pay everyone else.
This is so wrong in so many levels...
Lets me paint you a picture
Fabulous Co has 100 shares issued and 50 outstanding. Co earns 10 as profit and it gets divided up by 100 - 0.1 per share (yes, this is WRONG).
What happens now is that Co treasury stock receives 50x0.1 and shareholders receive 50x0.1.
Guess what, Co has 5 as dividend income that must be shared between shareholders.
So here we go again: 5/100 = 0.05 and 50*0.05 to shareholders and 50*0.05 gets sent back to Co and so and on and on and on....
Because you use broken system, it will take you close to forever to distribute all the profits to shareholders.
