Chapter 11 Corporate Reporting and Analysis QUESTIONS 1. Organization expenses (costs) are incurred in creating a corporation. Examples include: legal fees, promoter fees, accountant fees, costs of printing stock certificates, and fees paid to obtain a state charter. 2. Organization expenses (costs) are reported as expenses when incurred—as part of operating expenses—because the amount and timing of their future benefit is difficult to determine. (Instructor note: Prior to SOP 98-5, organization costs were classified as part of intangible assets and then allocated to amortization expense.) 3. The board of directors of a corporation is responsible for directing the corporation's affairs. The directors are elected by the corporation’s stockholders. 4. The preemptive right of common stockholders is the right to maintain their relative ownership interests in the corporation by having the first opportunity to purchase their proportionate share of any additional common shares issued by the corporation. 5. The general rights of common stockholders include: (1) the right to vote in stockholders’ meetings, (2) the right to sell or otherwise dispose of stock, (3) the preemptive right, (4) the right to share proportionately in dividends, and (5) the right to share proportionately in assets remaining after the creditors are paid when, and if, the corporation is liquidated. In addition, stockholders have the general right to receive timely and useful financial reports that describe the corporation’s financial position and the results of its activities. 6. Authorized shares represent the maximum number of shares that a corporation’s charter allows it to sell. Outstanding shares are the number of issued shares that are held by stockholders. The number of authorized shares usually exceeds the number of issued shares, often by a large amount. 7. Convertible preferred stock is potentially attractive because it offers the safety of a regular return as well as the opportunity to share in the increased value of the issuer’s common stock through conversion (or potential conversion). 8. The market value per share of stock is the price at which a share of stock is bought or sold. Many factors—including expected future earnings, dividends, growth, and other company and economic factors—affect market value. Par value per share is an arbitrary value assigned by the corporation in its charter. 9. The par value is an arbitrary value placed on a share of stock when it is authorized. The call price is an amount that a corporation must pay if it exercises the option to buy back and retire a share of callable preferred stock. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 Solutions Manual, Chapter 11 589 10. The three important dates governing dividends are: a. date of declarationthe date the directors vote to pay a dividend. b. date of recorda future date specified by the directors to identify the particular shareholders that are to receive the dividend. c. date of paymentthe date when shareholders receive the dividend payment. 11. Cash dividends debited against paid-in capital accounts are called liquidating dividends because they represent a return of amounts originally invested in the corporation by the stockholders. (They are a return of, not a return on, capital contributions.) 12. Declaring a stock dividend has no effect on assets, liabilities, or total equity. Also, the subsequent distribution of the stock dividend has no effect on these items. Instead, the stock dividend simply increases the number of shares outstanding and results in a transfer of equity from retained earnings to paid-in capital. 13. A stock dividend results in a distribution of additional shares to stockholders and the capitalization of retained earnings. A stock split calls in the old shares and replaces them with a different number of new shares with a new par value. Also, no entry is made to any of the equity accounts with a stock split. In spite of these technical differences, there is no practical difference in most cases between a stock split and a large stock dividend. 14. A stock dividend should not be considered income because it does not transfer any assets from the corporation to the stockholders. 15. A treasury stock purchase reduces total assets and total equity by equal amounts. 16. Treasury stock purchases affect the corporate assets and stockholders’ equity just like a cash dividend. To keep a company from dissipating its assets by paying an inordinate amount of dividends to its stockholders, state laws protect the company’s creditors by imposing limits on treasury stock purchases. 17. With a simple capital structure, earnings per share is calculated by first subtracting any declared and cumulative preferred dividends from net income, and then dividing the difference by the weighted-average number of shares of outstanding common stock. The resulting figure is called the basic earnings per share. 18. A stock option is the right to purchase common stock at a fixed price over a specified period. 19. When a corporation has no preferred stock, book value per share is calculated by dividing total stockholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding. The main limitation of using book value per share to value a corporation is the potential difference between recorded value and market value for assets and liabilities. 20. Best Buy has preferred stock and common stock listed on its balance sheet. As of March 3, 2007, however, Best Buy has not issued any of the preferred stock. 21. The par value for Circuit City’s common stock is $0.50 per share (as reported on its balance sheet). The company has likely set the par value to minimize the amount of legal capital the company must maintain (and that stockholders would be liable for). 22. At December 31, 2006, RadioShack had 650,000,000 shares of common stock authorized and 191,033,000 shares of common stock issued. 23. Apple received $318,000,000 from the issue of common stock, and paid $355,000,000 to repurchase common stock for the year ended September 30, 2006. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 590 Financial and Managerial Accounting, 3rd Edition QUICK STUDIES Quick Study 11-1 (10 minutes) True statements: 1, 2, 5 and 6 Quick Study 11-2 (5 minutes) a.

This material error should be reported on the statement of retained earnings (and/or the statement of stockholders’ equity) as a prior period adjustment to the beginning retained earnings balance. Also, if prior year’s financial numbers are reported, they should be revised to show the correct numbers. 2. This change in the expected useful life is a change in an accounting estimate—affecting current and future accounting periods. Therefore, the current year depreciation should be modified to reflect the change and the revised depreciation expense reported on the income statement as a regular part of income from continuing operations. The remaining years’ depreciation also should reflect this new estimate of useful life.

Exercise 11-15 (15 minutes) Dividend yield 1. $14.00 / $229.51 = 6.1% 2. $11.00 / $110.00 = 10.0% 3. $ 5.52 / $ 60.00 = 9.2% 4. $ 1.90 / $118.75 = 1.6% Analysis: The yield of 1.6% on stock #4 is sufficiently low that it probably would be classified as a growth stock, and not an income stock.

Evaluation of the three proposals a. Cicely’s investment as a common shareholder would mean that Adriana would have a second person who would be an owner. Adriana has been working on her own for about 15 months, and may not wish to have a second person who may have authority to make decisions. If Cicely and Adriana do not agree completely on policies and procedures, this may create some difficulties for Adriana. On the other hand, Cicely may have skills that could complement Adriana’s skills, and the two may make a great success. As Cicely is an owner there is no need to repay the $86,000, nor is there any requirement that dividends be paid. If Success Systems gets into cash flow difficulties, any dividends can be postponed until a later time. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 620 Financial and Managerial Accounting, 3rd Edition Serial Problem (concluded) b. Having a preferred shareholder means that Adriana’s Uncle Marcello will not have the same voting rights as Adriana. Uncle Marcello may be expecting regular dividend, however, so Adriana should be prepared to pay $6,020 ($86,000 x 7%) in dividends each year. This is not a requirement, however, even if the preferred stock is cumulative. The preferred stock does not require repayment, and technically, Adriana would have the use of the $86,000 for as long as Uncle Marcello wishes to be a preferred shareholder. c. The loan requires regular monthly payments, so Adriana will need to budget the $1,000 each month as a cash outflow. The loan may be riskier because it does require regular payments. Interest on the loan balance is a tax-deductible expense to Success Systems, while any dividends (whether to the common or preferred shareholders) are not a tax-deductible expense to Success Systems. In addition, Adriana does not have an additional owner that could exert some control over her business. 3. There is no correct answer to the question of which proposal Adriana should adopt. Class discussion may indicate which proposal the class prefers. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 Solutions Manual, Chapter 11 621 Reporting in Action — BTN 11-1 1. As of March 3, 2007, the shares of common stock issued and outstanding are 480,655,000 (see balance sheet). As of February 25, 2006, the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding is 485,098,000. The weighted-average common shares used in calculating earnings per share are disclosed within Best Buy’s income statement. At March 3, 2007, the basic weighted-average shares were 482,100,000. At February 25, 2006, the basic weighted-average shares were 490,300,000. Therefore, for both years, the shares outstanding at year-end were slightly lower than the basic weighted-average shares outstanding during the year. (Differences between the year-end and weightedaverage share amounts are likely the result of timing differences with share repurchases, issuances, and retirements.) 2.

Book value per common share = Circuit City’s book value per common share = $1,791 / 171 = $10.47 RadioShack’s book value per common share = $654 / 136 = $ 4.81 2. Earnings per share = Net income Weighted-average common shares outstanding Best Buy’s earnings per share: $1,377/ 482 = $ 2.86 Circuit City’s earnings per share: $ (8) / 170 = $(0.05) RadioShack’s earnings per share: $73 / 136 = $ 0.54 3. Dividend Yield = Annual cash dividends per share Market value per share Best Buy dividend yield Circuit City dividend yield RadioShack dividend yield = $0.36 / $46.35= 0.78% = $0.12 / $19.00= 0.63% = $0.25 / $16.78= 1.49% Analysis: The low dividend yield for all three companies suggests that they are “growth stocks.” Market value per share Earnings per share Best Buy price-earnings ratio: $46.35 / $2.86 = 16 Circuit City price-earnings ratio: $19.00 / $(0.05) = (380) RadioShack price-earnings ratio: $16.78 / $0.54 = 31 4. Price-earnings ratio = Interpretation: The price-earnings ratios of the companies are considerably different. In Best Buy’s case, the market appears willing to pay a multiple of 16 times its earnings. For RadioShack, that multiple is considerably greater at 31 times its earnings. Circuit City’s priceearnings ratio is difficult to interpret because Circuit City had a net loss. In the case of net losses, users commonly adjust earnings per share to the “usual, expected earnings,” often times using an average from recent periods. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 Solutions Manual, Chapter 11 623 Ethics Challenge — BTN 11-3 During the course of her duties, Brianna has learned information that others might not know.

The balance sheet of McDonald’s shows that they have both preferred and common stock authorized, but it has only issued common stock. 2. The preferred stock has no par value. There are 165.0 million preferred shares authorized, and none issued. The common stock has a $0.01 par value. There are 3.5 billion shares authorized and 1,660.6 million shares issued. 3. In 2006, the financing section of the statement of cash flows shows that McDonald’s paid $2,959.4 million to purchase treasury stock. 4. In 2006, the financing section of the statement of cash flows shows that McDonald’s paid common stock cash dividends of $1,216.5 million. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 624 Financial and Managerial Accounting, 3rd Edition Teamwork in Action — BTN 11-6 1. The team statement should include the following: a. When a corporation “buys back” its stock (engages in a treasury stock acquisition), the effect on financial position is a decrease in both assets (cash) and equity (treasury stock). Also, treasury stock is a contra equity account that decreases equity. b. Reasons for “buybacks”: to use shares to acquire another corporation. to avoid a hostile takeover by an investor seeking to take control of the company. to reissue shares to employees as compensation. to maintain a strong or stable market for the stock. 2. The team should establish the acquisition entry as follows Treasury Stock, Common......................................... 13,400 Cash ..................................................................... 13,400 Reacquired 100 shares of $100 par value common stock at a cost of $134 per share. Each member should prepare one of the following reissue entries: a. Cash .......................................................................................... 13,400 Treasury Stock, Common ................................................. 13,400 Received $134 per share for 100 treasury shares costing $134 per share. b. Cash .......................................................................................... 15,000 Paid-In Capital, Treasury Stock ........................................ Treasury Stock, Common ................................................. 1,600 13,400 Received $150 per share for 100 treasury shares costing $134 per share. c.

When presenting and explaining the above entries to the team, the following points should be made by the team members: The similarities in all reissue entries a through e are: The net affect of the transaction is to increase assets and equity by the amount received on reissue. Cash (assets) is always increased by the amount received. Treasury Stock is always decreased by the full cost regardless of whether the reissue is at cost, above cost, or below cost. The differences in reissue entries b through e are: (b) Reissuing above cost creates additional Paid-In Capital.* (c) Reissuing below cost reduces existing Paid-In Capital.* (d) Reissuing below cost reduces existing Paid-In Capital,* but after this account’s balance has been eliminated, then Retained Earnings must be reduced by the additional amount below cost. (e) Reissuing below cost reduces Retained Earnings when Paid-In Capital* does not exist. *Refers to the Paid-In Capital, Treasury Stock account. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 626 Financial and Managerial Accounting, 3rd Edition Entrepreneurial Decision — BTN 11-7 1. Net income.............................................................. Less preferred dividends ...................................... Net income for common stockholders ................ Plan A $ 72,000 0 $ 72,000 Plan B $ 72,000 (10,000) $ 62,000 Chris’ share of common equity ............................

Less preferred dividends ...................................... Net income for common stockholders ................ Plan A $ 16,800 0 $ 16,800 2. Plan B $ 16,800 (10,000) $ 6,800 Chris’ share of common equity ............................ Chris’ share of income after any preferred stock dividends ................................................................. 80% 100% $ 13,440 $ Chris’ initial equity ................................................. $375,000 $375,000 Chris’ return on equity .......................................... 3.6% 1.8% 6,800 3. The difference between the answers for parts 1 and 2 arises from the percent of return generated with the assets invested in the corporation. In part 1, Chris’ return on equity is 15.4% for Plan A, which is less than the 16.5% for Plan B. However, the return on equity is only 3.6% in part 2 for Plan A, BUT this is more than the 1.8% for Plan B. These results indicate that the 8% dividend rate on the preferred stock is advantageous to Chris as long as the rate of return on the assets is greater than 8% (this is the same as saying net income is over $40,000). This means Plan B is preferred. Net income over $40,000 yields a return on assets greater than 8% (that is, 8% equals $40,000/$500,000). If net income falls below $40,000 (or less than 8% return on assets), then Plan A is preferred. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 Solutions Manual, Chapter 11 627 Hitting the Road — BTN 11-8 There is no formal solution for this field activity.

Earnings per share = = ₤0.71 Net income Weighted-average common shares outstanding DSG’s earnings per share = ₤ 207 / 1,843 = ₤0.11 (Instructor’s note: At the date this problem was written, ₤1 was equal to about $2.05. This means that DSG’s BVPS is about $1.46, and its EPS is about $0.23) 3. DSG’s EPS is ₤0.11, and its paid dividends of ₤0.07 It appears that DSG is paying out about 64% of its income as dividends. In comparison with most companies, this is a large proportion of income in the form of cash dividends. ©McGraw-Hill Companies, 2009 628 Financial and Managerial Accounting, 3rd Edition
