13-2
Nature and Classifications of Paid-In Capital
• A corporation is a legal artificial entity separate
from its owners.
• Individuals contribute capital for which the
corporation issues stock certificates
evidencing ownership interests.
• Stockholders elect a board of directors
whose members oversee the strategic and
long-run planning of the corporation.
1. Rights associated with ownership of common
and preferred stock
13-3
Common and Preferred Stock
• When a corporation is formed, a single class of
stock, known as common stock, is usually
issued.
• Corporations may later find that there are
advantages to issuing one or more additional
classes of stock with varying rights and priorities.
Stock with certain preferences (rights) over
common stock is called preferred stock.
13-4
Common Stock
Unless restricted by terms of the articles of
incorporation, certain basic rights are held by
each common stockholder:
1. To vote in the election of directors and in the
determination of certain corporate policies.
2. To maintain one’s proportional interest in
the corporation through purchase of
additional common stock if and when it is
issued. This right is known as the
preemptive right.
13-5
Par or Stated Value of Stocks
The journal entry to record the issuance of
common stock in exchange for cash frequently
looks something like this:
Cash XXX
Common Stock (at par value) XXX
Additional Paid-In Capital XXX
(continued)
• Historically, par value was equal to the market
value of the shares at issuance.
• Today, most stocks have a nominal par value or no
par value at all.
• No-par stock sometimes has a stated value that for
financial reporting purposes acts like a par value.
13-6
Preferred Stock
• The term preferred stock is somewhat
misleading because it gives the impression
that preferred stock is better than common
stock.
• Preferred stock isn’t better—it’s different.
• Preferred stockholders give up many of the
rights of ownership in exchange for some of
the protection enjoyed by creditors.
(continued)
13-7
Preferred Stock
Rights of ownership given up by preferred
stockholders:
(continued)
• Voting. In most cases, preferred stockholders
are not allowed to vote for the board of
directors.
• Sharing in success. The cash dividends
received by preferred stockholders are usually
fixed in amount. Therefore, if the company
does exceptionally well, preferred stockholders
do not get to share in the success.
13-8
Preferred Stock
• Cash dividend preference. Preferred
stockholders are entitled to receive the full
cash dividend before any cash dividends are
paid to common stockholders.
• Liquidation preferences. If the company goes
bankrupt, preferred stockholders are entitled to
have their investment repaid, in full, before
common stockholders receive anything.
The protections enjoyed by preferred stockholders,
relative to common stockholders, are:
13-9
Cumulative and Noncumulative Preferred Stock
• When a corporation fails to declare dividends
on cumulative preferred stock, such
dividends accumulate and require payment in
the future before any dividends may be paid to
common stockholders.
• Dividends on cumulative preferred stock that
are passed are referred to as dividends in
arrears.
• With noncumulative preferred stock, it is not
necessary to provide for passed dividends.
(continued)
13-10
Good Time Corporation has outstanding
100,000 shares of 9% cumulative preferred
stock, $10 par. Dividends were last paid in 2010.
Total dividends of $300,000 are declared in
2013 by the board of directors.
Cumulative and Noncumulative Preferred Stock
(continued)
13-11
Dividends may be declared on common stock as
long as the preferred stock receives its preferred
rate for the current period. If the preferred stock
were noncumulative, the 2013 dividends would
be distributed as follows:
Cumulative and Noncumulative Preferred Stock
13-12
Participating Preferred Stock
• Participating preferred stock issues provide
for additional dividends to be paid to preferred
stockholders after dividends of a specified
amount are paid to the common stockholders.
• A participating provision makes preferred stock
more like common stock.
• Participating preferred stocks are now
relatively rare.
13-13
Convertible Preferred Stock
• Preferred stock is convertible when it can be
exchanged by its owner for some other
security of the issuing corporation.
• Conversion rights generally provide for the
exchange of preferred stock into common
stock.
• In some instances, preferred stock may be
converted into bonds.
13-14
Callable Preferred Stock
• Many preferred issues are callable, meaning they
may be called and canceled at the option of the
corporation.
• The call price is usually specified in the original
agreement and provides for payment of dividends in
arrears as part of the repurchase price.
Redeemable Preferred Stock
• Redeemable preferred stock is preferred stock that
is redeemable at the option of the stockholder or upon
other conditions not within the control of the issuer.
• Redeemable preferred stock is somewhat like a loan
in that the issuing corporation may be forced to repay
the stock proceeds.
13-15
Current Development in The Accounting for
Preferred Stock
• In the Preliminary Views document, the
FASB recommends the “basic ownership
approach” to identifying equity.
• This approach hinges on the idea that equity
claims are those that remain when all other
claims have been satisfied.
• The basic ownership approach would be very
restrictive. In fact, all preferred stock, whether
redeemable or not, would be reported as a
liability under this approach.
(continued)
13-16
Current Development in The Accounting for
Preferred Stock
• Users prefer a “perpetual approach,” which
describes an equity instrument as one for
which there is no requirement to repay the
invested funds, and the holder of the
instrument is entitled to some assets if the
company is liquidated.
• Both the FASB and IASB are leaning toward
the “perpetual approach.”
13-17
Capital Stock Issued for Cash
• The issuance of stock for cash is recorded by a
debit to Cash and a credit to Capital Stock for
the par value.
• When the amount of cash received for the stock
is more than the par value, the excess is
recorded as a credit to an additional paid-in
capital account.

basis, and in exchange for noncash assets or
for services

Capital Stock Sold on Subscription
• A subscription is a legally binding contract
between the subscriber (purchaser of stock)
and the corporation (issuer of stock).
• The contract states the number of shares
subscribed, the subscription price, the terms of
payment, and other conditions of the
transaction.
• Ordinarily, stock certificates are not issued
until the full subscription price has been
received by the corporation.
(continued)
13-22
November 1-30: Received subscriptions on
November 1 for 5,000 shares of $1 par common
stock at $12.50 per share with 50% down,

Common Stock Subscriptions Receivable should
normally be shown as an offset to equity.
13-25
Subscription Defaults
If a subscriber defaults on a subscription, a
corporation may:
1) return to the subscriber the amount paid,
2) return to the subscriber the amount paid less
any reduction in price or expense incurred on
the resale of the stock,
3) declare the amount paid by the subscriber as
forfeited, or
4) issue to the subscriber shares equal to the
number paid for in full.
13-26
Capital Stock Issued for Consideration Other
Than Cash
AC Company issues 200 shares of $0.50 par
value common stock in return for land. The
company’s stock is currently selling for $50 per
share.
Land 10,000
Common Stock 100
Paid-In Capital in Excess of Par 9,900
When other than cash is received, the fair
market value of the stock or the fair market
value of the property or service, whichever
is more determinable is used.
When other than cash is received, the fair

The land has a readily determinable market price
of $12,000, but AC Company’s common stock
has no established fair market value.
Land 12,000
Common Stock 100

If no readily determinable value is available for
either, the accepted procedure is to have the
value of the property or services appraised.
13-28
Reasons Companies Repurchase Stock
1. Provide shares for incentive compensation and employee savings plans.
2. Obtain shares needed to satisfy requests by holders of convertible securities.
3. Reduce the amount of equity relative to the amount of debt.
4. Invest excess cash temporarily.
5. Remove some shares from the open market in order to protect against a hostile takeover.
6. Improve per-share earnings by reducing the number of
shares outstanding and returning inefficiently used assets to
shareholders.
7. Display confidence that the stock is currently undervalued
by the market.
3. Use both the cost and par value methods to
account for stock repurchases
13-29
Treasury Stock
• Treasury stock is stock issued by a corporation
and subsequently reacquired by the corporation
and held for possible future reissuance or
retirement.
• Treasury stock should not be viewed as an
asset; report as a reduction in owner’s equity.
• There is no income or loss on the reacquisition,
reissuance, or retirement of treasury stock.
• Retained Earnings can be decreased by
treasury stock transactions but never increased
by such transactions.

Stock Rights, Warrants, and Options
• Stock rights—issued to existing shareholders to
permit them to maintain their proportionate
ownership interests when new shares are to be
issued.
• Stock warrants—sold by the corporation for
cash, generally in conjunction with the issuance
of another security.
• Stock options—granted to officers or
employees, usually as part of a compensation
plan.
4. Account for the issuance of stock rights and
stock warrants
13-39
Stock Rights
• When announcing rights to purchase additional
shares of stock, the directors of a corporation
specify a date on which the rights will be issued.
• All stockholders of record on the issue date are
entitled to the rights. Thus, between the
announcement date and the issue date, the stock is
said to sell rights-on.
• After the rights are issued, the stock sells ex-rights,
and the rights may be sold separately by those
receiving them from the corporation.
• An expiration date is also designated when the
rights are announced, and rights not exercised by
this date are worthless.
13-40
Stock Warrants
The value assigned to the warrants is determined by
the relative fair value method which is illustrated in the
following equation:
Value
assigned to
warrants
Total issue
price
Market value of warrants
Market value

without
warrants

warrants +
x =
(continued)
• Detachable warrants are similar to stock rights
because they can be traded separately from the
security with which they were originally issued.
• Nondetachable warrants cannot be separated from
the security with which they were issued.
13-41
• Stewart Co. sells 1,000 shares of $50 par
preferred stock for $58 per share. Stewart Co.
gives the purchaser detachable warrants
enabling the holders to subscribe to 1,000
shares of $2 par common stock for $25 per
share.
• Immediately following the issuance of the stock,
the warrants are selling for $3, and the fair
market value of a preferred share without the
warrant attached is $57.

Stock Option Compensation Expense
• Whether or not to expense stock options is a “hot
potato” issue in accounting.
• The FASB kept bringing up the issue of stock
option accounting only to find that there were
strong feelings against expensing the cost of stock
options.
• Recognition of a stock option compensation
expense would reduce reported earnings. (continued)
5. Compute the compensation expense
associated with the granting of employee stock
options
13-46
Stock Option Compensation Expense
• In December 2004, the FASB adopted pre-
Codification Statement No. 123 which
requires the expensing of the fair value of
stock options granted as compensation.
• This standard is now found in FASB ASC
Topic 718.
13-47
• Neff Company estimates a grant date value of
$10 for each of the employee stock options. The
total fair value of the options granted is $100,000
(10,000 x $10) as of the grant date.
Compensation expense is allocated over three
years from January 1, 2011 (the grant date) to
January 1, 2014 (the vesting date). The year-end
entry is shown in Slide 13-48.

Accounting for Performance-Based Plans
In a performance-based stock option plan,
the plan terms are dependent on how well the
individual performs after the date the options
are granted or how well the company
performs during the vesting period.
(continued)
13-52
• On January 1, 2011, the board of directors of
Neff Company authorized the granting of stock
options to supplement the salaries of certain
employees.
• Each stock option permits the purchase of one
share of Neff common stock at a price of $50
per share; the market price on January 1,
2011, is also $50 per share.
Accounting for Performance-Based Plans
(continued)
13-53
• The options vest, or become exercisable,
beginning on January 1, 2012, and only if the
employee stays with the company for the entire
3-year period. The options expire on December
31, 2014.
• The number of options granted is contingent on
Neff’s level of sales for 2013. If Neff sales are
less than $50 million, only 10,000 options will
vest. If Neff’s sales are between $50 million and
$80 million, an additional 2,000 options will vest.
If sales exceed $80 million, 15,000 vest.
Accounting for Performance-Based Plans
(continued)
13-54
• As of December 31, Neff forecasts that 2013
sales will be around $60 million, indicating
that 12,000 options will vest.
• Recognition of compensation expense for
2013 involves recognizing one-third of the
$120,000 (12,000 x $10) total estimated
expense for the 3-year service period.
• The change in Neff’s stock price during the
year (from $50 to $60) does not affect the
calculation. (continued)

13-56
Events in 2012 lead Neff to lower its forecast of
2013 sales. Sales are expected to be only $40
million, so only 10,000 options will vest on
January 1, 2014. Because two-thirds of the
service period has elapsed, aggregate
compensation expense should be $66,667
($100,000 x 2/3).

Actual sales for 2013 are $85 million, so 15,000

compensation expense of $66,667 ($40,000 +
$26,667) has already been recognized in 2011
and 2012, the necessary journal entry in 2013 is

• Assume that Neff Company has decided
instead of granting its employees 10,000
stock options, it will grant an equal number of
cash stock appreciation rights (SARs).
• A cash SAR awards an employee a cash
amount equal to the market value of the
issuing firm’s shares above a specified
threshold price.
(continued)

• As of December 31, 2011, the estimated fair

preferred shares to be reported as liabilities in the
balance sheet.

Written Put Options
• A put option is an agreement that allows
investors to sell the issuing corporation shares
they hold at set prices on specific dates.
• If the stock price stays above a set level per
share, the issuing corporation pays nothing.
• Historically, companies have recorded these put
options as part of equity. The FASB now
instructs companies to record the fair value of
the obligation as a liability.

Obligation to Issue Shares of a
Certain Dollar Value
• Companies occasionally agree to satisfy their
obligations by delivering shares of their own
stock rather than by paying cash.
• This is especially true for startup companies
trying to conserve their limited cash supply.
• Depending on how the contract is written, this
promise to deliver shares of one’s stock to
satisfy the obligation can be recorded as equity
or as a liability.

Noncontrolling Interest
• Financing provided by minority stockholders is
called minority interest.
• Minority interest is the amount of equity
investment made by outside shareholders to
consolidated subsidiaries that are not 100%
owned by the parent.
• The FASB uses the term noncontrolling
interest to replace “minority interest” in the
consolidated balance sheet.

Factors Affecting Retained Earnings
A number of factors can affect retained earnings
in addition to net income, losses, and dividends.
These transactions and events that affect
retained earnings are summarized as follows:
8. List the factors that impact the Retained
Earnings balance
13-79
Net Income and Dividends
• The primary source of retained earnings is the
net income generated by a business.
• When operating losses or other debits to
retained earnings produce a debit balance in
the account, the debit balance is referred to as a
deficit.
• Use of the term dividends without qualification
normally implies the distribution of cash.
13-80
Prior-Period Adjustments
In some situations, errors made in past years
are discovered and corrected in the current year
by an adjustment to Retained Earnings, referred
to as a prior-period adjustment:
• Mathematical mistakes
• Failure to apply appropriate accounting procedures
• Misstatement or omission of certain information
• Change from a non-GAAP principle to a GAAP
principle
13-81
Appropriated Retained Earnings
• Retained Earnings may be restricted at the
discretion of the board of directors.
Example: Expansion of plant facilities
• The restricted portion may be designed as
appropriated retained earnings and the
unrestricted portion as unappropriated (or free)
retained earnings.
• The main idea behind this restriction is to
notify stockholders that some of the assets
may not be available for dividends.
13-82
Accounting for Dividends
In setting dividend policy, the board of directors
must answer two questions:
1. Do we have the legal right to declare a dividend?
2. Is a dividend distribution financially advisable?
The board of directors must observe the state
incorporation laws governing the payment of
dividends.
9. Properly record cash dividends, property
dividends, small and large stock dividends,
and stock splits
13-83
Recognition and Payment of Dividends
• Declaration date—date the corporation’s board
of directors formally declares a dividend will be
paid
• Date of record—date on which stockholders of
record are identified as those who will receive a
dividend
• Date of payment—date when the dividend is
actually distributed to stockholders
13-84
Cash Dividends
Entries to record the declaration and payment of a
$100,000 cash dividend by a corporation follows:
Declaration of Dividend:
Dividends (or Retained Earnings) 100,000
Dividends Payable 100,000
Payment of Dividend:
Dividends Payable 100,000
Cash 100,000
13-85
Property Dividends
• A dividend to stockholders that is payable in some
asset other than cash is generally referred to as a
property dividend.
• Frequently, the assets to be distributed are securities
of other companies owned by the corporation. The
corporation thus transfers to stockholders the
ownership interest in such securities.
• This type of transfer is sometimes referred to as a
nonreciprocal transfer to owner inasmuch as
nothing is received by the company in return for its
distribution to stockholders.

Property Dividends
Bigler Corporation owns 100,000 shares in
Tri-State Oil Co, carrying value $2,700,000,
current market value $3,000,000, or $30 per
share. There are 1,000,000 shares of Bigler stock

Stock Dividends
• A corporation may distribute to stockholders
shares of the company’s own stock as a stock
dividend.
• A stock dividend involves no transfer of cash or
any other asset to stockholders.
• From a shareholder’s standpoint, receipt of a
stock dividend is an economic nonevent.
13-89
Small versus Large Stock Dividends
• Small:
Less than 20–25% of the outstanding shares.
Debit Retained Earnings for the market value of the shares.
• Large:
Greater than 20–25% of the shares outstanding.
Debit Retained Earnings for the par value of the shares.

Stock Dividends versus Stock Splits
• A corporation may effect a stock split by
reducing the par or stated value of each share
of capital stock and proportionately increasing
the number of shares outstanding.
• A stock dividend results in an increase in the
number of shares outstanding. The par or
stated value remains unchanged.
• A stock split divides the existing Capital Stock
balance into more parts, with a reduction in
par or stated value of each share.
13-95
Reverse Stock Split
• A reverse stock split is the consolidation of
shares outstanding into a smaller number of
shares.
• Share of stock trading for less than $10 are
viewed with some skepticism, and a reverse
split can make the stock look more
respectable.
• A reverse split is almost always viewed as bad
news by investors.
13-96 13-96
13-97
Liquidating Dividends
• A liquidating dividend is a distribution representing a return to stockholders of a portion of contribution capital.
• Example: Stubbs Corporation declared and paid a cash dividend ($10 cash dividend on 10,000 shares of common stock) totaling $100,000 and a partial liquidating dividend of $50,000. The liquidating dividend is a $5-per-share dividend. The declaration and payment entries are on Slide 13-98.

Equity Items That Bypass the Income
Statement and are Reported as Part of
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Earnings
Since 1980, the Equity sections of the U.S.
balance sheets have begun to fill up with a
strange collection of times, each the result of an
accounting controversy. These items are
summarized in the following slides.
(continued)
13-102
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
• The foreign currency translation
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.
• These changes are recorded as direct
adjustments to equity, insulating the income
statement from the aspect of foreign currency
fluctuations.
13-103
Unrealized Gains and Losses
on Available-for-Sale Securities
• Available-for-sale securities are those that
were not purchased with immediate intention to
resell, but that a company also doesn’t
necessarily plan to hold forever.
• The unrealized gains and losses from market
value fluctuations in trading securities are
included in the income statement.
• The unrealized gains and losses from market
value fluctuations in available-for-sale
securities are shown as a direct adjustment to
equity. (continued)
13-104
Unrealized Gains and Losses
on Derivatives
• A derivative is a financial instrument, such as
an option or a future, that derives its value from
the movement of a price, an exchange rate, or
an interest rate associated with some other
item.
• Derivatives are used to manage risk
associated with sales or purchases that will not
occur until a future period.

Balance Sheet Reporting
The accumulated amount of comprehensive
income is reflected in the Equity section of the
balance sheet in two ways:
• Net income (less dividends) is cumulated in
retained earnings.
• Other comprehensive income is cumulated in
accumulated other comprehensive income.
13-109
International Accounting: Equity Reserves
• In foreign countries, the payment of cash
dividends is linked to the amount of
distributable equity.
• Equity is divided among various equity
reserve accounts, each with legal restrictions
dictating whether it can be distributed to
stockholders.
