To indicate: The effects of each transaction on the accounting equation.

Explanation of Solution

Accounting equation:

Accounting equation is an accounting tool expressed in the form of equation, by creating a relationship between the resources or assets of a company, and claims on the resources by the creditors and the owners. Accounting equation is expressed as shown below:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity

The effects of each transaction:

  1. a. Issued 100,000 shares of the common stock at $55 per share.

Calculate the cash:

Cash=Number of shares×Cost price=100,000Shares×$55 per share=$5,500,000(1)

Calculate the amount for common stock:

Common stock=Number of shares×Premium amount=100,000 Shares×$5Per share=$500,000(2)

Calculate the amount for additional paid in capital:

Additional paid in capital=Number of shares×Additional amount=100,000Shares×($55$5)=$5,000,000(3)

Assets Liabilities Stockholders’ equity
a. Cash +5,500,000(1) No effect

  1. b. Required 25,000 shares at $50 cash per share.
Assets Liabilities Stockholders’ equity
b. Cash -1,250,000 No effect

Treasury stock (+xSE)

-1,250,000

Table (2)

  1. c. Reissued 10,000 shares from treasury for $51 per share.

Calculate the cash:

Cash=Number of share×Cost price =10,000Shares×$51Per share=$510,000(4)

Calculate the treasury stock:

Treasury stock=Number of shares×Cost price of share=10,00Shares×$50per share=$500,000(5)

Calculate the additional paid in capital:

Additonal paid in capital=Number of shares×(Reissue priceReacquired price)=10,000Shares×($51$50)=$10,000(6)

Assets Liabilities Stockholders’ equity
c. Cash +510,000(4) No effect

Treasury stock (-xSE)

Additional paid-in capital treasury

+500,000(5)

+10,000(6)

Table (3)

  1. d. Reissued 10,000 shares from treasury for $49 per share.

Calculate the cash:

Cash=Number of share×Cost price =10,000Shares×$49Per share=$490,000(7)

Calculate the treasury stock:

Treasury stock=Number of shares×Cost price of share=10,00Shares×$50per share=$500,000(8)

Calculate the additional paid in capital:

Additonal paid in capital=Number of shares×(Reissue priceReacquired price)=10,000Shares×($49$50)=$10,000(9)

Assets Liabilities Stockholders’ equity
d. Cash +490,000(7) No effect

Treasury stock (-xSE)

Additional paid-in capital treasury

+500,000(8)

-10,000 (9)

Table (3)

a.

  • Common stock is issued for cash. Hence, the effect on the accounting equation is increase in cash (asset) and increase in stockholders’ equity (Common stock).

b.

  • Reacquired shares from the stockholders that are kept in the treasury. Hence, the effect on the accounting equation is decrease in cash (asset) and decrease in the treasury stock (Stockholders’ equity).

c.

  • Reissued the stocks from treasury for premium. Hence, the effect on the accounting equation is increase in cash (asset) and decrease in treasury stock which is a contra-equity which increases the stockholders’ equity. And there is anincrease in the additional paid in capital-treasury increases the stockholders’ equity.

d.

  • Reissued the stocks from treasury for discount. Hence, the effect on the accounting equation is increase in cash (asset) and as the shares are issued at lesser than the cost price it decreases the stock holders’ equity and there is a decrease in the contra equity increases the stockholders’ equity.

To determine

To prepare: The journal entry for each transaction.

Explanation of Solution

Journal:

Journal is the book of original entry. Journal consists of the day-to-day financial transactions in a chronological order. The journal has two aspects; they are debit aspect and the credit aspect.

Prepare the journal entries:

  1. a. Journal entry for issuance of common stock:
Date Account Title and Explanation Debit ($) Credit ($)
  a. Cash (100,000Shares×$55) 5,500,000  
    Common stock (100,000Shares×$5)   500,000
    Additional paid in capital, common stock (100,000Shares×$50)  

5,000,000

    (To record the issuance of common stock to investors at premium)    

Table (4)

  • Cash is an asset. There is an increase in the cash. Hence, debit cash account with $5,500,000.
  • Common stock is a component of stockholders’ equity. There is an increase in the common stock which increases the stockholders’ equity. Hence, credit stockholders’ equity with $500,000.
  • Additional paid in capital (common stock), there is an issue of stocks at premium of $5. There is an increase in the common stock which increases the stockholders’ equity. Hence, credit additional paid in capital with $5,000,000.
  1. b. Journal entry for reacquiring of shares from stockholders:
Date Account Title and Explanation Debit ($) Credit ($)
  b. Treasury stock (25,000Shares×$50) 1,250,000  
    Cash   1,250,000
    (To record the reacquiring of shares from the stockholders)    

Table (5)

  • Treasury stock is the contra-equity. There is an increase in the contra-equity which decreases the stockholders’ equity. Hence, debit the treasury stock with $1,250,000.
  • Cash is an asset. There is a decrease in the asset. Hence, credit cash account with $1,250,000.
  1. c. Journal entry for reissuance of treasury stock:
Date Account Title and Explanation Debit ($) Credit ($)
  c. Cash (10,000Shares×$51) 510,000  
    Treasury stock (10,000Shares×$50)   500,000
    Additional paid in capital, common stock [10,000Shares×($51$50)]  

10,000

    (To record the issuance of common stock to investors at premium)    

Table (6)

  • Cash is an asset. There is an increase in the asset. Hence, credit cash account with $510,000.
  • Treasury stock is a contra-equity. There is a decrease in the contra equity which increases stockholders’ equity. Hence, credit treasury stock with $500,000.
  • Additional paid in capital (Common stock) there is an issuance of stock at higher than the purchased price. Hence, credit additional paid in capital with $10,000.
  1. d. Journal entry for reissuance of treasury stock:
Date Account Title and Explanation Debit ($) Credit ($)
  d. Cash (10,000Shares×$49) 510,000  
    Treasury stock (10,000Shares×$50)   500,000
    Additional paid in capital, common stock [10,000Shares×($50$49)]  

10,000

    (To record the issuance of common stock to investors at discount)    

Table (7)

  • Cash is an asset. There is an increase in the asset. Hence, credit cash account with $510,000.
  • Treasury stock is a contra-equity. There is a decrease in the contra equity which increases stockholders’ equity. Hence, credit treasury stock with $500,000.
  • Additional paid in capital (Common stock) there is an issuance of stock at lower price than the purchased price. Hence, credit additional paid in capital with $10,000.

Balance sheet (Partial)
Stockholders' equity -December 31
Particulars amount($) Amount($)
Contributed capital:    
Common stock (100,000 Shares×$5) $500,000

Total contributed capital $5,500,000
Retained earnings $400,000  
Total $5,900,000
Less: Treasury stock at cost(10) ($250,000)  
Total stockholders' equity   $5,650,000

Table (8)

Working note:

Calculate the amount of treasury stock at cost:

Treasury stock at cost=Number of shares×Reacquired price=5,000×$50=$250,000 (10)

Conclusion

Thus, the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet is prepared and it shows the total stock holders’ equity as $5,650,000.
