Explanation:
a) Whereas $60,000 cash was received for the issue, only $40,000 (10,000 x $4) is credited to Common Stock. Â The additional of $20,000 is credited to Additional Paid-in Capital. Â This shows that the shares were issued above their par value.
b) When 2,000 shares of treasury stock were reacquired at a total cost of $7 per share, the Treasury Stock account is debited with the par value of $4 per share ($8,000). Â The above par value difference is taken to the Additional Paid-in Capital account as a debit.
c) Dividends on preferred stock was prorated for 10 months, from January to October. Â This is because the percentage dividend is for a year.
d) Dividends on common stock would not be prorated since they are based on annual percentages like preferred stock. Â Dividends on the common stock is, therefore, calculable on the outstanding balance. Â
e) Treasury Stock is a contra account to the Common Stock as it reduces the balance of common stock outstanding. Â The outstanding balance of Treasury Stock increased to 12,000 (10,000 + 2,000).
f) Outstanding common stock reduced from 500,000 shares to 498,000 (500,000 + 10,000 - 12,000). Â The additional 10,000 represented the new issue and the 12,000 represented the Treasury Stock.
