CHAPTER 11
QUESTIONS
1. The basic rights of common stockholders,
unless otherwise restricted in the articles
of incorporation or bylaws, are as follows:
(a) The right to vote in the election of
directors and in the determination of
certain corporate policies.
(b) The
right
to
maintain
one’s
proportional interest in the corporation
through purchase of additional stock
issued by the company. (In recent
years, some states have eliminated
this preemptive right.)
2. Historically, par value was equal to the
market value of the shares at issuance.
Par value was also sometimes viewed by
the courts as the minimum contribution by
investors. These days, par values for
common stocks are usually set at very low
values (less than $1), so the importance of
par value has decreased substantially.
3. Preferred stock is stock that carries certain
preferences over common stock, such as
prior claims to dividends and liquidation
preferences. Often preferred stock has no
voting rights or only limited voting rights,
and dividends are usually limited to a
stated percentage or amount. The special
rights of a particular issue of preferred
stock are set forth in the articles of
incorporation and in the preferred stock
certificates issued by the corporation.
4. When stock is issued for noncash assets
or for services, the fair market value of the
stock or the fair market value of the
property or services, whichever is more
objectively determinable, is used to record
the transaction.
5. A company may repurchase its own stock
for any of the following reasons:
•
To provide shares for incentive
compensation plans
•
To obtain shares for convertible
securities holders
•
To reduce the amount of equity
•
To invest excess cash temporarily
•
To protect against a hostile takeover
•
To improve per-share earnings
•
To display confidence that the stock is
currently undervalued
6. a. The cost method of accounting for
treasury stock records the treasury
stock at cost, pending final disposition
of the stock; the par value method
treats the acquisition of treasury stock
as
effective
or
“constructive”
retirement of outstanding stock.
b. Total stockholders’ equity will be the
same regardless of whether the cost
method or the par value method is
used to account for treasury stock.
The respective amounts of retained
earnings and paid-in capital may
differ, however.
7. The difference between the purchase price
and the selling price of treasury stock is
properly excluded from the income
statement
because
treasury
stock
transactions cannot be considered to give
rise to a gain or a loss. Gain or loss arises
from the utilization of assets or resources
by the corporation in operating and
investing
activities.
Because
the
recognition of treasury stock as an asset is
discouraged, transactions in treasury
stock are considered capital transactions
between the company and its stockholders
and thus do not give rise to a gain or a
loss.
8. If warrants are detachable, the issuance
proceeds are allocated between the
security and the warrant, based on the
relative fair market values of each. If
warrants are nondetachable, no allocation
is made to recognize the value of the
warrant. The entire proceeds are assigned
to the security to which the warrant is
attached.
9. With the fair value method, total
compensation expense is measured using
the estimated fair value of the options as
of the grant date. With the intrinsic value
method, total compensation expense is
measured using the difference between
the exercise price and the market price at
the grant date. For most plans,
compensation expense using the intrinsic
value method is zero. The FASB
recommends the fair value method.
254
10. Companies must disclose the number of
options outstanding, granted, and forfeited
during the year, along with their weightedaverage exercise prices. In addition, the
weighted-average fair value of options
granted during the year must be disclosed.
If the intrinsic value method is used, a
company is also required to disclose (in
each year) what net income would have
been if the fair value method had been
used.
11. If an error is discovered in the current
year, it is corrected with a correcting entry.
If a material error is discovered in a year
subsequent to the error, the error is
corrected by a prior-period adjustment
whereby the beginning balance in
Retained Earnings is adjusted. Some
errors
are
counterbalancing
(e.g.,
inventory errors) and may need no
correction.
12. State incorporation laws are written to
prevent corporations from wrongfully
borrowing money and then funneling that
money to shareholders. One device to
prevent this is to restrict the payment of
cash dividends to the amount of retained
earnings. Retained earnings can also be
restricted by private debt agreements in
which lenders constrain the ability of a
borrowing
company
to
pay
cash
dividends.
13. a. June 15, 2005, is the date on which
dividend action was formally taken.
July 10, 2005, is the date dividend
checks will be mailed to stockholders.
June 30, 2005, is the date for
determining
the
names
of
stockholders for purposes of the
dividend; dividend checks will be
mailed only to those stockholders
whose
names
appear
in
the
stockholders’ ledger at the close of
business on this date. The period
between the date of declaration and
the date of record gives stockholders a
chance to adjust their holdings in light
of the dividend action taken by the
company. The period between the
date of record and the date of
payment gives the corporation time to
prepare dividend checks for mailing.
b. The stock would normally be traded
“ex-dividend” 3 or 4 days prior to June
Chapter 11
30, 2005. A stockholder selling shares
on or after that date would still receive
the dividend on stock and, conversely,
any person acquiring the stock
between that date and July 10 would
receive no dividend payment from the
current declaration.
14. With a stock split, the par value of each
share is reduced, and the number of
shares outstanding is increased. The total
par value of shares is unchanged. With a
stock dividend, the par value of each
share is unchanged, and because the
number
of
shares outstanding
is
increased, total par value is increased.
This par value increase is effected through
a transfer to par value from Retained
Earnings and/or Additional Paid-In Capital.
With a small stock dividend, the market
value of the newly issued shares is
transferred. With a large stock dividend,
the par value of the new shares is
transferred.
15. a. A liquidating dividend is a distribution
of contributed capital to stockholders.
b. A liquidating dividend is paid when a
corporation is undertaking a partial or
complete liquidation.
16. The four types of unrealized gains and
losses shown as direct equity adjustments
are
•
Foreign
currency
translation
adjustment. This adjustment arises
from the change in the equity of
foreign subsidiaries (as measured in
terms of U.S. dollars) that occurs as a
result of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates.
•
Minimum pension liability adjustment.
This adjustment is created when
additional pension liability must be
recognized.
•
Unrealized gains and losses on
available-for-sale securities. Availablefor-sale securities are those that were
not purchased with the immediate
intention to resell but will be held for
an indefinite time. Unrealized gains
and losses arise because these
securities must be reported on the
balance sheet at their fair market
value.
Chapter 11
•
Unrealized gains and losses on
derivatives. Unrealized gains and
losses from market value fluctuations
of derivative instruments that are
intended to manage risks associated
with future sales or purchases are
deferred to allow for proper matching.
17. Each equity reserve account is associated
with legal restrictions dictating whether it
can be distributed to shareholders.
Therefore, the accounting for equity
reserves
255
directly influences a firm's ability to pay
dividends. The most important distinction
is whether the equity reserve is part of
distributable or nondistributable equity.

December 31, 2003, Dividend:
Because no preferred stock had been issued at this time, the entire
$25,600 dividend was paid to the common stockholders.
December 31, 2005, Dividend:
Because cumulative preferred stock had been issued, the preferred
stockholders have the right to receive $17,280 in dividends before
common stockholders receive payment. (24,000 shares × $12 par =
$288,000; $288,000 × 0.06 = $17,280.) Thus, the entire $15,500 was paid
to preferred stockholders.
December 31, 2006, Dividend:
Because preferred stockholders had not received all dividends they
were entitled to on December 31, 2005, the remaining portion of the
2005 dividend plus the preference for 2006 must be paid to preferred
stockholders before any payment to common stockholders. Thus,
preferred stockholders will receive $19,060 in 2006, and common
stockholders will receive $13,600 ($17,280 – $15,500 = $1,780; $1,780 +
$17,280 = $19,060; $32,660 – $19,060 = $13,600).

When the rights are issued, only a memorandum entry is required to state
the number of shares that may be claimed. This is to ensure that enough
shares are held to cover the rights.
When the rights are exercised, another memorandum entry is needed to
record the reduction in the outstanding rights.
When the rights lapse, a memorandum entry should be made to note the
decrease in outstanding claims to common stock.

The following items are correctly recorded in the retained earnings
account:
c. Stock dividend, $70,000. This amount is transferred to paid-in capital
accounts.
e. Officers’ compensation related to income of prior periods, $162,750.
This is an accounting error, and the amount is properly recorded as a
prior-period adjustment.
f. Retirement of preferred shares at more than the issue price, $35,000.
This amount is properly debited to Retained Earnings.
I. Correction of prior-period error, $25,025. This is properly recorded as a
prior-period adjustment.
The corrected amount of Retained Earnings is as follows: $66,410 + $2,625
+ $26,250 + $24,150 – $64,750 – $4,235 – $12,950 – $7,525 – $9,500 =
$20,475. Of course, the items included in the computation of net income
will eventually be closed to Retained Earnings.

Minimum pension liability adjustment: This item is always a reduction in
equity.
Unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities: An unrealized loss reduces
equity.
Accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment: Because the
currencies in the countries where Bypass has foreign subsidiaries have
strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar, this equity adjustment will increase
equity.
