30 October 2010 Our company has issued 4% Cumulative Preference Shares but in current year we have inccured loss so we can not pay dividend in the current F.Y.

My question is that as the Preference Shares are Cumulative whether we need to make provisions in our current years books for the dividend to be paid in future.
