2. Preferred Stock2. Preferred Stock Advantages

– Preference over common in liquidation– Stated dividend – Variety of features regarding dividends– Preference over common in dividend payout

Disadvantages– Subordinate to debt in liquidation– Stated dividend can be skipped– No voting rights (versus common)

Debt or equity?– components of both– usually (but not always) classified with equity

– Voting rights: election of board of directors vote on significant activities of management

– Rights to residual profits (after preferred)Disadvantages

– Last in liquidation– No guaranteed return

Par value - initially established to create a “minimum legal capital”.– Ex: Minimum legal capital in some states is

$1,000 for new corporations, so issue: 1,000 shares at $1par, or 100 shares at $10 par, or other combination. . .

Par value is not market value. Credit CS or PS for par value. Excess over par credited to “Paid in Capital in

Excess of Par or Stated Value” or abbreviated: “Additional Paid-in Capital” (APIC).

Some newer stock issues (for common stock) are “no par” stock.

5. Treasury Stock5. Treasury Stock Created when a company buys back shares of its

own common stock. Reasons for buyback:

– reissue to employees for compensation.– hold in treasury (or retire) to increase market

price and earnings per share.– reduce total dividend payouts while maintaining

per share payouts.– thwart takeover attempts by reducing proportion

of shares available for purchase.– give cash back to existing shareholders.

12

5.5. Treasury Stock - continuedTreasury Stock - continued The debit balance account called “Treasury Stock”

is reported in stockholders’ equity as a contra (reduces SE). Note: not an asset.

The stock remains issued, but is no longer outstanding.– does not have voting rights– cannot receive cash dividends

May be reissued (to the market or to employees) or retired.

No gains or losses are ever recognized from these equity transactions.

13

5. Treasury Stock(TS) - Journal Entries5. Treasury Stock(TS) - Journal EntriesThere are two techniques for recording TS transactions (Par Value method and Cost method). We will use only the Cost method. This technique establishes a “cost” for TS equal to the amount paid to acquire the TS. Par value is not used for TS transactions.

To record purchase of TS from market:TS xx “cost”

Cash xx market(cost equals the cash paid)

14

5. Treasury Stock(TS) - Journal Entries5. Treasury Stock(TS) - Journal EntriesTo reissue TS to market at greater than cost:

5. TS Example from Sample Co.5. TS Example from Sample Co.Look again at the information for Sample Co.Note that Sample Company has 5,000 shares of TS at a total cost of $6,000, or a cost of $1.20 per share. The journal entry to record that purchase would have been:

TS 6,000Cash 6,000

Note that Sample Company also has APIC - TS of $2,000 in the balance sheet. This must be from previous TS transactions, where the TS was purchased, then reissued for more than original cost. All that remains of those transactions is the APIC -TS.

5.5. TS - Example ProblemTS - Example ProblemTiger Corporation has 100,000 shares of $1 par value

stock authorized, issued and outstanding at January 1, 2005. The stock had been issued at an average market price of $5 per share, and there have been no treasury stock transactions to this point.

Assume that, in February of 2005, Tiger Corp. repurchases 10,000 shares of its own stock at $7 per share. In July of 2005, Tiger Corp. reissues 2,000 shares of the treasury stock for $8 per share. In December of 2005, Tiger Corp. reissues the remaining 8,000 shares for $6 per share. Prepare the journal entries for 2005 regarding the treasury stock.

18

5. TS Example -Journal Entries5. TS Example -Journal EntriesFeb: repurchase 10,000 sh. @ $7 =

$70,000.

July: reissue 2,000 sh @ $ 8 = $16,000

(cost = 2,000 @ $7 = 14,000)

19

5. TS Example -Journal Entries5. TS Example -Journal EntriesDec: reissue 8,000 sh. @ $ 6 = $48,000

(cost = 8,000 sh.@ $7 = 56,000)

Now we need to debit one or more accounts to compensate for the difference.

(1) debit APIC -TS (but lower limit is to -0-).(2) debit RE if necessary for any remaining

balance (this is only necessary when we are decreasing equity).

20

6. Employee Stock Options6. Employee Stock OptionsStock options represent the right of the holder

to purchase common stock at a designated price, and during a designated time frame.

Stock options are given to employees as a means of compensation.

Historically, two kinds of employee stock options (compensation is defined at the date of grant):– compensatory, because the exercise price is

below the market price at the date of grant.– noncompensatory, because the exercise

price is equal to the market price at the date of grant .

21

6. Employee Stock Options6. Employee Stock OptionsAPB Opinion 25 states that “compensation” is

measured at the date of grant (market price - exercise price), and any difference is allocated to compensation expense over the life of the option. If there is no difference, there is no comp. expense.

The APB Opinion 25 method is known as the intrinsic value method, because it measures the value of the stock options at the date of grant (the intrinsic value at inception).

This method has been the default method for recording employee stock options, even after SFAS 123 (discussed later) was issued.

22

6. Stock Options- APBO 256. Stock Options- APBO 25 Given the following information: Em

Company adopted a stock option plan that granted options to employees to purchase 30,000 shares of the company’s $10 par value common stock. The options were granted on January 2, 2005, and were exercisable 2 years after the date of grant if the employee was still employed at the company. The exercise price was set at $40 in the option contract. At the date of exercise January 2, 2007, the market price was $80 per share.

23

6. Stock Options - Illustration 16. Stock Options - Illustration 1Illustration 1 (intrinsic value method): Assume the

market price at the date of grant was $45 per share. Therefore, the stock options are compensatory, and total compensation expense is measured as: $45 mkt - $40 exercise = $5 per share x 30,000 shares = $150,000.

Since total compensation expense = $150,000, we will recognize it over the life of the option

(150,000 / 2 = $75,000 per year).For 2005:

Compensation expense 75,000APIC - stock options 75,000

For 2006:Compensation expense 75,000

APIC - stock options 75,000

24

6. Stock Options - Illustration 16. Stock Options - Illustration 1Note that, for the previous entries, the company is not paying the employees with cash, it is paying the employees with the promise of equity. Also, the employee is contributing time in exchange for future equity (thus the credit to APIC as the employee “pays in” time). Now, when the options are exercised at Jan. 2, 2007, at the exercise price of $40 per share:Cash ($40 x 30,000) 1,200,000APIC - stock options 150,000

Common stock ($10 x 30,000) 300,000APIC - common stock (plug) 1,050,000

Note that, even though the market price of the stock at 1/2/07 is $80 per share, the transaction is recorded at the market price at the date of grant ($45 per share). The company never recognizes the additional “value” that it has given to the employees.

25

6. Stock Options - Illustration 26. Stock Options - Illustration 2Illustration 2 (intrinsic value method): Assume the

market price at the date of grant was $40 per share. Therefore, the stock options are noncompensatory, and total compensation expense is measured as:$40 mkt - $40 exercise = -0- (Since total compensation expense = -0-, no expense is recognized on the options, not now, not ever.)

For 2005Compensation expense -0-

APIC - stock options -0-For 2006:

Compensation expense -0-APIC - stock options -0-

26

6. Stock Options - Illustration 26. Stock Options - Illustration 2

Now, when the options are exercised at Jan. 2, 2007, at the exercise price of $40 per shareCash ($40 x 30,000) 1,200,000APIC - stock options -0-

Common stock ($10 x 30,000) 300,000APIC - common stock (plug) 900,000

Most stock options have been issued as “noncompensatory” at the date of grant, primarily to avoid the recognition of compensation expense.

Note that, even though the market price of the stock at 1/2/07 is $80 per share, the transaction is recorded at the market price at the date of grant ($40 per share). The company never recognizes the additional “value” that it has given to the employees.

27

6. Stock Options and SFAS No. 1236. Stock Options and SFAS No. 123In 1993 (its second attempt), the FASB

tried to rectify the lack of recognition of compensation expense in the financials for “noncompensatory” options. It proposed that companies “estimate” the present value of the future cash flows that was being promised to employees, then recognize that estimate as compensation expense over the life of the contract.

There were many protests, particularly in the high tech industry, where employment and growth were tied heavily to stock options.

28

6. Stock Options and SFAS No. 1236. Stock Options and SFAS No. 123The FASB eventually modified the standard,

so that SFAS 123 recommended recognition of expense in the financial statements for noncompensatory (as well as compensatory) stock option plans. However, it allowed companies to continue using the APB Opinion 25 method for recording expense in the financials.

The SFAS 123 technique is known as the fair value method.

Illustration 3 shows the recommended journal entries using SFAS 123.

29

6. Stock Options - Illustration 36. Stock Options - Illustration 3

Illustration 3 (fair value method): Assume the market price at the date of grant was $40 per share, and the stock options are, therefore, noncompensatory. However, compensation expense is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (other models are acceptable), and the present value of the estimated total compensation expense (based on the projected market price at exercise) is $200,000.

30

6. Stock Options - Illustration 36. Stock Options - Illustration 3 Basically, the pricing model assumes a

number of factors which could affect the growth in the price of the stock, and also incorporates probabilities for the number of employees that would actually exercise the option.

Since total compensation expense = $200,000, we will recognize it over the life of the option ($200,000 / 2 = $100,000 per year).

31

6. Stock Options - Illustration 36. Stock Options - Illustration 3(SFAS 123: recommended journal entries)(SFAS 123: recommended journal entries)

For 2005: Compensation expense 100,000

APIC - stock options 100,000For 2006:

Compensation expense 100,000APIC - stock options 100,000

Common stock ($10 x 30,000) 300,000APIC - common stock (plug) 1,100,000

Note that, even though the market price of the stock at 1/2/07 is $80 per share, the transaction is recorded at the PV of the estimated future price at the date of exercise ($46.67 per share). The company never recognizes the additional “value” that it has given to the employees.

32

6. Stock Options and SFAS No. 1236. Stock Options and SFAS No. 123 However, if companies chose not to recognize the

expense in the income statement, SFAS 123 also required that companies disclose the “pro forma” effect on net income, as if the estimated compensation expense had been recognized.

Since the issue of SFAS 123, most companies have chosen to disclose, rather than accrue, compensation expense.

The disclosure helped the financial statement reader to ascertain several things:– what income would have been if SFAS 123 had

been fully implemented.– how much equity the company is promising to

the employees.

33

6. Stock Options and Recent Changes6. Stock Options and Recent ChangesIn 2003 and 2004, many companies began

voluntarily recording option compensation as an expense on the income statement. There were several reasons, including the desire to be more transparent with shareholders.

FASB has approved a standard that will tentatively become effective mid-2005, and will require the recognition of expense through journal entries, using the fair value method.

34

6. Stock Options and Expense Recognition6. Stock Options and Expense Recognition Should compensation expense be recognized in the

financial statements? Proponents say yes:

– It is a cost to the company of employing the workers.– If the company had issued stock, then paid the

employees in cash, the amount would have been recognized as comp. expense.

Opponents say no:– The employee is essentially working as an “owner” of

the company, and contributing “sweat equity”; owners do not receive salary distributions.

– If companies had to recognize expense, they would stop offering stock options.

– Options are given as work incentives, rather than straight compensation. Remember: the value can go down as well as up (unlike traditional compensation).

7. Retained Earnings 7. Retained Earnings We will be expanding the basic retained earnings

formula in this chapter. Now the Statement of Retained Earnings will include the following:RE, beginning (unadjusted) xxAdd/Subtract: Prior period adjustment xxRE, beginning (restated) xxAdd: net income xxLess dividends:

Cash dividends-common xx Cash dividends - preferred xx Stock dividends xx Property dividends xx

Less: Adjustment for TS transactions xx Appropriation of RE xx

7. RE - Cash Dividends7. RE - Cash DividendsAs cash dividends are declared:

Dividends (RE) - common xxDividends (RE)- preferred xx

Dividends Payable xx

As cash dividends are paid:Dividends Payable xx

Cash xx

37

7. RE - Cash Dividends7. RE - Cash DividendsNote that stated dividends to preferred

shareholders must be paid before any dividends can be paid to common shareholders (including dividends in arrears if cumulative).

Preferred dividends may be cumulative, which means that, if no dividend is declared in the current year, they must be “caught up” (based on stated dividend rate) for the preferred shareholders in a future year before common shareholders get any dividends.

However, cumulative preferred dividends in arrears are not recognized as a liability until a dividend is finally declared by the board of directors. A company might go for a number of years without declaring a dividend, and there is no liability until a dividend is actually declared.

38

7. RE - Property Dividends7. RE - Property DividendsProperty dividends are distribution of non-cash property by a company to its shareholders. The most common type of property dividend is a “spin-off” where the shares of stock of a subsidiary are distributed to the shareholders of the parent company.As property dividends are declared:

Property Dividends (RE) xxProperty Div. Payable xx

As property dividends are distributed:Property Div. Payable xx

Investment xx

39

7. RE - Stock Dividends7. RE - Stock DividendsStock dividends are distribution of additional

shares of a company’s own stock to its shareholders. Note that the distribution of additional shares does not result in any value being given to the shareholders.

Example: 4 shareholders, each having 10 shares of common stock. Each owner has 25% of total (10/40). If I give each shareholder 1 additional share of stock, each shareholder still owns 25% of the same company (11/44). Nothing has changed, except the number of the pieces of paper.

40

7. RE - Stock Dividends7. RE - Stock DividendsLarge stock dividends (> 25% of the outstanding common shares) are recorded at par value.As stock dividends are declared:Stock Dividends (RE) xx parStock Div. Distributable xx parAs stock dividends are distributed:Stock Div. Distributable xx par

Common Stock xx par

Note that Stock Dividends Distributable is not a liability, it is another equity account (see Sample Company) which indicates that there are additional shares of stock that will be issued but are not currently outstanding.

41

7. RE - Stock Dividends7. RE - Stock DividendsAnalyze the effect of the transactions on the

balance sheet:Stock Dividends (RE) xx - SE

Stock Div. Distributable xx + SE As stock dividends are distributed:

Stock Div. Distributable xx - SE Common Stock xx + SE

Note that the total effect on stockholders’ equity is zero. However, retained earnings decreases and common stock increases by the par value of the stock dividend.

Small stock dividends (< 25% of the outstanding common shares) are recorded at market value. Since small stock dividends are rare, we will not do journal entries here.

42

Stock SplitsStock SplitsStock splits are commonly declared by a

company to reduce its market price per share. This makes the stock more accessible to small investors.

The process for stock splits is that the “old” stock certificates are turned in, and “new” stock certificates with a new description are issued to the same shareholders.

The total par value of the new shares is equal to the total par value of the old shares, but the number of shares (and par value per share changes.

43

Example of Stock SplitExample of Stock Split

IZM Company has 100,000 shares of $2 par value stock authorized, 10,000 shares issued and outstanding.

The SE section of the balance sheet shows: – Common stock $20,000– Retained earnings 80,000

The market price of the outstanding shares is $50 per share before the split is distributed.

44

Example of Stock SplitExample of Stock Split If IZM declared a 2 for 1 stock split, the old

shares would be turned in and new shares would be issued with the following description:

Common stock, $1 par value, 200,000 shares authorized, 20,000 shares issued and outstanding.

The total SE is still $100,000: – Common stock $20,000– Retained earnings 80,000

The market price per outstanding share would now be $25 per share.

Note: No journal entry is necessary.

45

7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits Going back to the original IZM information.

Assume instead that IZM declared a 100% stock dividend.

First, prepare the JEs to record the declaration and distribution of the stock dividend for new shares (10,000 shares x 100% = 10,000 new shares x $2 per share = $20,000):Stock Dividends (RE) 20,000

Stock Div. Distributable 20,000Stock Div. Distributable 20,000

Common Stock 20,000

46

7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits Now note the new description for the stock dividend: Common stock, $2 par value, 100,000 shares

authorized, 20,000 shares issued and outstanding The total value in SE is still $100,000:

– Common Stock $40,000– Retained Earnings 60,000

Note that the total market price per share would change to $25 per share.

Thus, a 2 for 1 stock split and a 100% stock dividend have the same effect on:– total stockholders’ equity and– market price per share

47

7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits However, a stock dividend requires a journal

entry, which changes the components of SE (RE and CS).

A stock split changes the description of the shares, including the par value per share.

Most companies use a stock split to change the market price per share, but some companies use the large stock dividend to achieve the same result. This action is called a “stock split in the form of a dividend.”

48

7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits7. Stock Dividends vs Stock Splits To summarize the effects on IZM Company:

100% Stock 2 for 1After: Dividend Stock SplitTotal sh. outstanding 20,000 sh. 20,000 sh.Par value per share $2 $1Market price per share$25 $25Total stockholders’ eq: $100,000 $100,000General ledger results: CS account $ 40,000 $ 20,000 RE account $ 60,000 $ 80,000

Reminder: CS was $20,000 and RE was $80,000 before the split or dividend ( see slide 42). Since the stock dividend required journal entries (see slide 44), the amounts for CS and RE changed. Since the stock split does not require a journal entry, the amounts for CS and RE do not change.

49

7. RE - Appropriations7. RE - AppropriationsCompanies may choose to “restrict” a

portion of their RE for dividend payout. Reasons for this restriction may include

activities such as plans for corporate expansion or plans for the retirement of debt.

The restriction does not create a cash balance for these plans. It simply indicates intentions.

The restriction, or appropriation may be indicated through disclosure, or through a reclassification of retained earnings.

50

7. RE - Appropriations7. RE - Appropriations If reclassification is used, the following journal

entry is necessary:RE xx

RE-Appropriated xxThis entry will create “two” retained earnings

in the SE section of the balance sheet. (See page 527 of your text for a full example.)

The debit side of the entry reduces “unappropriated” or “unrestricted” RE in the Statement of RE, and the credit side creates a new RE account.

Note that the JE does not change total SE, or even change total RE.

51

A prior period adjustment is an adjustment to current retained earnings for an error in a prior year’s income statement.

The error was closed to prior RE, so the error is corrected at the beginning of the year (net of tax). The error can go in either direction, depending on the nature of the error (ex: omitted expense versus omitted revenue).

52

8. Other Comprehensive Income8. Other Comprehensive IncomeComprehensive Income is a term that was

defined in the Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts (SFAC 6).

It consists of all non-owner changes in equity. This includes net income as we have been defining revenues and expenses throughout the semester (and again in Chapter 13), and it also includes “Other Comprehensive Income.”

53

8. Other Comprehensive Income8. Other Comprehensive Income“Other Comprehensive Income” includes

certain direct equity adjustments that are not part of the current income statement, but which may have eventual effect on income.

We already discussed one of these direct equity adjustments when reviewing Available-for-sale Investments. We found that any unrealized gains/losses from revaluation to market are shown in SE (as “other comprehensive income”) rather than on the income statement.

54

8. Other Comprehensive Income8. Other Comprehensive IncomeAnother item in Other Comprehensive

Income is the Cumulative Translation Adjustment.

This adjustment occurs when a company owns a foreign subsidiary, and must translate the foreign subsidiary to U. S. dollars before consolidating.

The adjustment would only be realized as part of the income statement if the foreign subsidiary was sold or liquidated for U.S. dollars.

More on this subject in Chapter 8 Appendix.

55

9. Statement of Stockholders’ Equity9. Statement of Stockholders’ EquityIn this chapter, we have discussed the

Statement of Retained Earnings as the link between the balance sheet and the income statement.

However, earlier chapters introduced the Statement of Stockholders’ Equity, which has become the default statement for large companies in recent years.

The Statement of Stockholders’ Equity details the change in retained earnings, including all the changes discussed in this chapter, and it also shows the change during the year in all of the stockholders’ equity accounts.
