   This Subtopic sets the equity-related disclosure requirements for insurance entities, focusing on statutory capital and surplus and how statutory accounting practices constrain dividends. Entities must disclose statutory capital and surplus, the amount needed to meet regulatory requirements, and restrictions on retained earnings available for dividends (505-944-50-1). When state-prescribed or permitted statutory accounting practices differ from NAIC statutory accounting practices and produce a significantly different statutory surplus or risk-based capital, the entity must describe the practice and quantify its monetary effect on statutory surplus (505-944-50-2 through 50-3).
