  1. Contributed Capital by owners Earned Capital by firm; undistributed Stockholder’s Equity • Owner’s Equity is comprised of three elements: • Capital Stock • Additional Paid-In Capital • Retained Earnings Owner’s Equity is a residual claim to net assets Also called Net Assets = Assets - Liabilities

  2. Common Stock Common Stock may have a Par Value • Arbitrary minimum contribution for one share of stock • Not required (can be issued no-par) • Not related to the market or sales price of the stock • Can be as low as 1 cent • Underfunded par represents contingent liability (rare) Recording issue of stock depends on par value.

  3. Common Stock Common Stock issue with Par: • Record Common Stock account at Par x shares sold • Record excess as Paid-In-Capital Example: Sell 2000 shares $1 par common for $8 per share Cash $16,000 Common Stock $2,000 PIC, Common $14,000

  4. Common Stock Common Stock issue without Par: • Record Common Stock account at sales value Example: Sell 2000 shares no par common for $8 per share Cash $16,000 Common Stock $16,000

  5. Common Stock Common Stock issue without Par: • Sometimes no-par has a “stated” amount. Treat • this just like a par amount Example: Sell 2000 shares no par, $1 stated value, common for $8 per share Cash $16,000 Common Stock $2,000 PIC, Common $14,000

  6. Common Stock Stock issued for other non-cash assets • Record at either FMV of stock issued or items • received, whichever is easier to determine Example: Trade 2000 shares no par $1 common for A truck with FMV of $20,000 Truck $20,000 Common Stock $2,000 PIC, Common $18,000

  7. Preferred Stock Preferred stock provides preferential dividend treatment to its owners over common stock shareholders. Most preferred certificates carry a stated dividend rate as a percentage of par value. This stated rate is guaranteed to the preferred shareholders only if dividends are declared for the period. If dividends are not declared, then the preferred dividends will go into an “arrears” status. (Note: this is for cumulative preferred). This means that these must be paid-in-full before any dividends can be paid to common shareholders. While dividends in arrears look like a liability, they technically are not, since management does not have any obligation to declare dividends in the future. Once declared, however, they become a current liability.

  8. Treasury Stock Purchase Transaction • Record purchase at current cost, which is the market • value of the stock • Par value and original sales price of stock have no • bearing on the purchase transaction

  9. Treasury Stock Purchase Transaction Example: Feb 15th, Purchase 10,000 shares of $1 par value common. Originally issued for $100,000. Purchased from NYSE at current market price of $22 per share. Feb. 15 Treasury Stock $220,000 Cash $220,000

  16. Treasury Stock Sales Transaction If we sell treasury stock for less than cost, we still credit the Treasury Stock account at the cost amount. The amount below cost will be debited to the PIC, Treasury Stock account. If this account is zero or gets depleted to zero, the remaining below cost amount will be debited directly to retained earnings.
