If you do a dividend recap and there are costs associated with the calling of the debt (i.e. a call premium), how would you record this in your three statements? I think it should be an asset on the balance sheet which you then amortize (like debt financing costs) but I can't find anything very clearly outlined online.

I think the prepayment/call premium is just a one-time expense that hits net income sort of like how prepayment of debt upon refinancing at beginning of a LBO works. The rationale I guess is that the call premium doesn't give ratable benefit over time for the piece of debt as financing fees would in amortization.
This is mostly correct. At the time of a refinancing, everything related to the old debt gets flushed through the income statement, which includes unamortized deferred financing fees, old facility unamortized OID and the cash call premium cost. Often companies will include these things in "Interest", but you may see them as "Early Extinguishment of Debt" costs. Most of the above is non-cash, but tax deductible, except for the call premium which is obviously cash.
Then the costs related to the new facility are put on the balance sheet as deferred financing fee assets or OID contra-liabilities.
