A company issues 1,000 shares of $1 par value common stock upon conversion of 1,000 shares of $5 par value preferred stock that was originally issued for a $150 premium.How much should be credited to the common stock account?
$1,000 Correct! $1,000 = (1,000 x $1). Common stock will be credited for the par value.
At December 31, 2020 the following balances existed on the books of Rentro Corporation: Bonds Payable: $7,000,000 Discount on Bonds Payable: $980,000 Interest Payable: $168,000 If the bonds are retired on January 1, 2021, at 102, what will Rentro report as a loss on redemption? $70,000 $945,000 $1,120,000 $1,288,000
$1,120,000 When a bond is redeemed, any excess of net carrying amount over the reacquisition prices is a "loss from extinguishment" The reacquisition price is $7,140,000 ($7,000,000 x 1.02). The book value of the bond is the face value less any unamortized discount. In this case, the book value is $6,020,000 ($7,000,000 - $980,000). Therefore, the loss on extinguishment is $1,120,000 ($7,140,000 - $6,020,000).
In 2016, Newton Inc. issued for $105 per share, 100,000 shares of $100 par value convertible preferred stock. One share of preferred stock can be converted into three shares of Newton's $30 par value common stock at the option of the preferred stockholder. In August 2017, all of the preferred stock was converted into common stock. The market value of the common stock at the date of the conversion was $42 per share. What total amount should be credited to additional paid-in capital, common stock as a result of the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock? $375,000 $780,000 $1,250,000 $1,500,000
$1,500,000 In accounting for the exercise of convertible preferred stock, a company uses the book value method and fair values are ignored. The journal entry for the conversion includes: Debit Convertible Preferred Stock (at par), Debit Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par - Preferred Stock, Debit Common Stock (at par). Additionally, if the Preferred Stock entries exceed the Common Stock, an additional credit is made to the Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par - Common Stock account. On the other hand, if the Common Stock credits exceeds the Preferred Stock entries, an additional debit is recorded in the Retained Earnings account to balance the entry. In this case, the journal entry includes the following: Debit Convertible Preferred Stock: $10,000,000 (100,000 shares x $100/share par value) Debit Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par - Preferred Stock: $500,000 [100,000 x (105/share - 100/share)] Credit Common Stock: $9,000,000 (100,000 preferred shares converted to 3 shares of common stock = $300,000 common shares x $30/share par value) Credit Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par - Common Stock: $1,500,000 [($10,000,000 + $500,000) - $9,000,000]
Pontchartrain Company issues $20,000,000, 7.8%, 20-year bonds to yield 8% on January 1, 2017. Interest is paid on June 30 and December 31. The proceeds from the bonds are $19,604,145. The company uses effective-interest amortization. What is the total interest expense reported on the 2017 income statement? $1,529,115 $1,560,000 $1,568,498 $1,600,000
$1,568,498 When a bond is purchased for less than the face value of the bond, the bond is "issued at a discount" of $395,855. The cash payment on the bond is $780,000 ($20,000,000 x 7.8% x 6/12). On 01/01/2017, the carrying amount of the bond is $19,604,145. Total interest expense on June 30, 2017 is $784,166 ($19,604,145 x 8% x 6/12). On June 30, the carrying value of the bond is increased (the discount is reduced) by $4,166 ($784,166 - $780,000) to $19,608,311 ($19,604,145 + $4,166). Total interest expense on December 31, 2017 is $784,332 ($19,608,311 x 8% x 6/12). Therefore, total interest expense for 2017 is $1,568,498 ($784,166 + $784,332
A company issues $25,000,000, 7.8%, 20-year bonds to yield 8% on January 1, 2020. Interest is paid on June 30 and December 31. The proceeds from the bonds are $24,505,180. Using effective-interest amortization, how much interest expense will be recognized in 2020? $975,000 $1,960,415 $1,950,000 $1,960,622
$1,960,622 When a bond is purchased for less than the face value of the bond, the bond is "issued at a discount" of $494,820 ($25,000,000 - $24,505,180). The cash payment on the bond is $975,000 ($25,000,000 x 7.8% x 6/12). On 01/01/2020, the carrying amount of the bond is $24,505,180. Total interest expense on June 30, 2020 is $980,207 ($24,505,180 x 8% x 6/12). On June 30, the carrying value of the bond is increased (the discount is reduced) by $5,207 ($980,207 - $975,000) to $24,510,387 ($24,505,180 + $5,207). Total interest expense on December 31, 2020 is $980,415 ($24,510,387 x 8% x 6/12). Therefore, total interest expense for 2017 is $1,960,622 ($980,207 + $980,415).
A company reports net income of $1,000,000. Dividends paid to preferred shareholders are $100,000. Shares outstanding at the beginning of the calendar year equal 700,000. The company purchased 200,000 treasury shares on October 1.Which amount is the earnings per share?
$1.38 $1.38 = ($1,000,000 - $100,000) / ((700,000 x 9/12) + ((700,000- 200,000) x 3/12)). Shares must be averaged on a weighted basis.
On March 1, 2021, Ruiz Corporation issued $2,000,000 of 8% nonconvertible bonds at 104, which are due on February 28, 2041. In addition, each $1,000 bond was issued with 25 detachable stock warrants, each of which entitled the bondholder to purchase for $50 one share of Ruiz common stock, par value $25. The bonds without the warrants would normally sell at 95. On March 1, 2021, the fair value of Ruiz's common stock was $40 per share and the fair value of the warrants was $2.00. What amount should Ruiz record on March 1, 2021 as paid-in capital from stock warrants? $73,600 $85,200 $100,000 $104,000
$104,000 When bonds are issued with detachable warrants, two securities are created. The value of each security is allocated between the two using the proportional method which uses the fair value of both securities, if available, to make the allocation of proceeds. The calculation of the amount allocated to the Paid-in Capital - Stock Warrants is calculated below: Proceeds = $2,000,000 x 104% = $2,080,000 Fair value of bonds = $2,000,000 x 95% = $1,900,000 Number of warrants issued = $2,000,000 / $1,000 per bond = 2,000 bonds x 25 warrants per bond = 50,000 warrants Fair value of warrants = 50,000 warrants x $2 per warrrant = $100,000 Amount of proceeds allocated to warrants = [$100,000 / ($1,900,000 + $100,000)] x $2,080,000 = $104,000
Flannery Corporation owns machinery with a book value of $520,000. It is estimated that the machinery will generate future cash flows of $465,000. The machinery has a fair value of $415,000. Which amount should Florence recognize as a loss on impairment? $0 $50,000 $55,000 $105,000
$105,000 An impairment is recorded when an asset fails the recoverability test. If the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, the asset is impaired. The amount of the impairment is the fair value of the asset less the book value.

(total cost - salvage value) / total estimated units available
Excom manufactures high-end whole home electronic systems. The company provides a one-year warranty for all products sold. The company estimates that the warranty cost is $300 per unit sold and reported a liability for estimated warranty costs $10.4 million at the beginning of this year. If during the current year, the company sold 60,000 units for a total of $324 million and paid warranty claims of $12,000,000 on current and prior year sales, what amount of liability would the company report on its balance sheet at the end of the current year? $3,733,333 $6,000,000 $16,400,000 $18,000,000
$16,400,000 The loss contingency balance is calculated as: $10,400,000 + (60,000 × $300) - $12,000,000 = $16,400,000.
A company purchased a plot of land for $140,000 for the purposes of harvesting timber for resale. The company estimates that it will be able to sell the land for $40,000 after it harvests all the timber and believes it will harvest 50,000 board-feet of lumber from the land over the next 10 years. Which depletion rate should the company use? $2.00 per board-foot $2.80 per board-foot $10,000 per year $14,000 per year
$2.00 per board-foot Correct! $2.00 = ($140,000 - $40,000) / 50,000. The company should select an activity-based method. This choice reflects the $100,000 depletion base divided by the expected quantity of timber to be harvested.
On June 30, 2017, Prouty Co. had outstanding 9%, $5,000,000 face amount, 10-year bonds that pay interest semi-annually on June 30 and December 31. The unamortized balance in the bond discount account on June 30, 2017 was $200,000. On June 30, 2017, Prouty acquired all of these bonds at 101 and retired them. What amount of gain or loss would Prouty record on this early extinguishment of debt? $300,000 loss $505,000 gain $250,000 loss $250,000 gain
$250,000 loss When a bond is redeemed, any excess of net carrying amount over the reacquisition prices is a "loss from extinguishment" The reacquistion price is $5,050,000 ($5,000,000 x 1.01). The book value of the bond is the face value less any unamortized discount. In this case, the book value is $4,800,000 ($5,000,000 - $200,000). Therefore, the loss on extinguishment is $250,000 ($5,050,000 - $4,800,000).

Kimbrough uses the effective-interest method of amortizing bond discount. What value would Kimbrough report for the unamortized bond discount on December 31, 2017? $255,000 $258,050 $274,500 $285,500
$285,500 When the bond is purchased for less than the face value of the bond, the bond is "issued at a discount" of $305,000 ($5,000,000 - $4,695,000). The cash payment on the bond is $450,000 ($5,000,000 x 9% x 12/12). On 01/01/2017, the carrying amount of the bond is $4,695,000. Total interest expense on December 31, 2017 is $469,500 ($4,695,000 x 10% x 12/12). On June 30, the carrying value of the bond is increased (the discount is decreased) by $19,500 ($469,500 - $450,000) to $4,714,500 ($4,695,000 + $19,500). The original discount of $305,000 is reduced by $19,500 to $285,500.
Porter Resources Company acquired a tract of land containing an extractable natural resource. Porter is required by its purchase contract to restore the land to a condition suitable for recreational use after it has extracted the natural resource. Geological surveys estimate that the recoverable reserves will be 2,500,000 tons, and that the land will have a value of $1,000,000 after restoration. Relevant cost information includes: Land at $7,500,000 and Estimated restoration costs of $1,500,000. If Porter maintains no inventories of extracted material, what should be the charge to depletion expense per ton of extracted material? $2.6 $3.0 $3.2 $3.6
$3.2 Depletion is calculated using the units-of-production method. If applicable, acquisition, exploration, intangible development, and restoration costs are all included in the depletion base of an asset. Porter's depletion expense per ton is calculated as: [($7,500,000 + $1,500,000 - $1,000,000)/ 2,500,000 tons] = $3.20 per ton.

Dixon Company purchased a depreciable asset for $32,000. The estimated salvage value is $4,000, and the estimated useful life is 4 years. The double-declining balance method will be used for depreciation. What is the depreciation expense for the second year on this asset? $6,400 $8,000 $16,000 $7,000
$8,000 Double declining method ignores salvage value. It calculates depreciation at 200% of the straight-line rate each year and multiplies that by the book value of the asset at the beginning of the period. Since the asset in this case has a useful life of 4 years, the straight-line depreciation rate is 25% per year. The double-declining method rate, therefore is 50%. First year depreciation is $32,000 x 50% = $16,000. The book value at the beginning of the 2nd year is $16,000 ($32,000 - $16,000). The second year depreciation is $16,000 x 50% = $8,000.

On January 1, 2021, Jacobs Company sold property to Dains Company which originally cost Jacobs $2,660,000. There was no established exchange price for this property. Danis gave Jacobs a $4,200,000 zero-interest-bearing note payable in three equal annual installments of $1,400,000 with the first payment due December 31, 2021. The note has no ready market. The prevailing rate of interest for a note of this type is 10%. The present value of a $4,200,000 note payable in three equal annual installments of $1,400,000 at a 10% rate of interest is $3,481,800. What is the amount of interest income that should be recognized by Jacobs in 2021, using the effective-interest method? $14,000 $140,000 $348,180 $420,000
348,180 When a note is issued at zero percent, the discount is amortized using the implicit interest rate calculated by evaluating the present value of future cash flows. In this case, the implicit interest rate is given as 10%. Similar to bonds, the difference of a note's face value and the present value is booked as a discount and amortized to interest expense over the life of the note. The book value of the bond is the face value less any unamortized discount. In this case, the book value is given as $3,481,800. Interest income for Jacobs for 2021 is $348,180 ($3,481,800 x .10).

An analysis of stockholders' equity of Hahn Corporation as of January 1, 2021, is as follows: Common stock, par value $20; authorized 100,000 shares; issued and outstanding 90,000 shares: $1,800,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par: $900,000 Retained earnings: $760,000 Total: $3,460,000 Hahn uses the cost method of accounting for treasury stock and during 2021 entered into the following transactions: Acquired 2,500 shares of its stock for $75,000. Sold 2,000 treasury shares at $35 per share. Sold the remaining treasury shares at $20 per share. Assuming no other equity transactions occurred during 2021, what should Hahn report on December 31, 2021, as total additional paid-in capital? $895,000 $900,000 $905,000 $915,000
905,000 The difference in the cost of treasury stock and the subsequent sale is recorded in the Paid-in Capital account. In this case, Hahn purchased the original treasury stock at $30 per share ($75,000/2,500 shares). To record the subsequent sale of 2,000 shares, the $30 cost per share is posted to the treasury stock account and the $5 difference is posted to the paid-in capital account. The same is true when the remaining 500 shares of treasury stock are sold at a price of $10 per share lower than the original purchase price. Therefore, the balance of the paid-in capital account can be calculated by: $900,000 + (2000 shares x $5) - (500 shares x $10) = $905,000. Also, consider the journal entries for each of the transactions: Purchase of $2,500 shares of treasury stock: Debit Treasury Stock $75,000; Credit Cash $75,000; Sold 2,000 shares of treasury stock; Debit Cash $70,000; Credit Treasury Stock $60,000 (2,000 shares x $30 purchase price); Credit Paid-In Capital Excess of Par $10,000; Sold remaining 500 shares of treasury stock: Debit Cash $10,000; Debit Paid-In Capital Excess of Par $5,000; Credit Treasury Stock $15,000 (500 shares x $30 purchase price); The Balance of the Paid-In Capital Excess of Par account is: $900,000 + $10,000 - $5,000 = $905,000
