Explanation:
<u>Common Stocks are at no par value:</u>
This means that ,
1.When Common Stocks are Issued, the value is the issue price there is no share premium reserve on it.
2. For consideration paid in Common Stocks, value of stocks would be the same as the cost at initial recognition. For example the Purchase of Land on April 1. Initial recognition is at Asking Price of $91,000. Hence common stocks are issued at $91,000.
<u>Preference Stocks are at $100 par</u>
This means that,
1.Any issue of Preference Stock made in excess of par value is accounted in the Preference Share Premium Reserve.
