Explanation / Answer

15) Answer (D) is correct.

16. Answer (A) is Correct

Explanation

i)            CASH(25,000 SHARES X $22) 550,000

COMMON STOCK (25,000 SHARES X $20) 500,000

ADDITIONAL PAID IN CAPITAL 50,000

ii)          GENERAL EXPENSES (1,000 SHARES X $24) 24,000

COMMON STOCK 20,000

ADDITONAL PAID IN CAPITAL 4,000

iii)          LAND (5,000 SHARES X $26) 130,000

COMMON STOCK 100,000

ADDITIONAL PAID IN CAPITAL 30,000

January 10: $22 – $20 = $2 X 25,000 shares = $50,000

March 25: $24 – $20 = $4 X 1,000 shares = 4,000

September 30: $26 – $20 = $6 X 5,000 shares = 30,000

17) Answer (C) is correct.
Explanation

Given that the 1,000 shares of common stock and 2,000 shares of preferred stock were issued for a lump sum of $80,000, the proceeds should be allocated based on the relative fair values of the securities issued. The fair value of the common stock is $36,000 (1,000 shares × $36). The fair value of the preferred stock is $54,000 (2,000 shares × $27). Because 60% [$54,000 ÷ ($54,000 + $36,000)] of the total fair value is attributable to the preferred stock, it should be allocated $48,000 ($80,000 × 60%) of the proceeds.

18) Answer (D) is correct.

Explanation

The number of common shares outstanding is equal to the issued shares less treasury shares. Beck Corp. had 300,000 shares outstanding at 1/1/Y1. The purchase of treasury shares in year 3 reduced the number of shares outstanding to 225,000 (300,000 75,000). The preferred stock convertible into 100,000 shares of common stock is recorded as preferred stock until it is converted by the stockholder.
