    The stockholder must report a total income of:

    $15,000 (cash) + $26,000 (fair market value of the bond) = $41,000

    Nonmonetary dividends have to be recognized at the fair market value of the assets that are distributed. Nonmonetary dividends are usually referred to as property dividends. Cash is recognized at its face value.
