April 1st Dr Cash                                                 $220,000

               Cr Common stock                               $50,000

               Cr Paid-up capital - common stock    $170,000

(to record the issuance of 10,000 common shares $5 par value at $22)  

April 7    Dr Cash                                                  $520,000

               Cr Preferred stock                                $250,000

               Cr Paid-up capital - preferred stock    $270,000  

(to record the issuance of 5,000 shares $50 par value at $104)              

Explanation:

1. Cash dividends is not a form of expenses in a corporation, in fact it is the distribution of earnings from corporation to its shareholders; thus not tax deducted.

2. In a corporation, shareholders are only liable to the amount of shareholding they possess. Thus, their liability to the corporation is limited.

3. One of the main disadvantage of corporation is the double taxation system. It is because a corporation and its shareholders are considered to be two separate legal entities so they all have to pay their income tax. This makes the income earned at the corporate is liable for paying corporate tax before it is paid to its shareholders under the form of dividend which is once again being taxed as at individual level since it is one of the income source(s) of the shareholders.

4. Shareholders can easily traded their owneship in a corporation through selling/buying its share without asking permission from the corporation's other shareholders or its management. Moreover, usually the market value of these shares are at a appropriate level for trading at individual level.

5. Though Management runs the daily business activities, Management's activities should be under the direction of other major policy decisions (eg: growth strategy in the next 5 years) of a corporation which is made by Board of Directors.

6. Stock's equity simply includes all the amount that shareholders have been contributed to a corporation under the form of buying/holding its common/preferred stock and the amount of net earnings a corporation retained.

7. The price of a stock is usually valued by assesing its current financial health including its financial position, earnings, risks and prospects. From that, potential stock investors form up an expectation on the stock price.

8.  As explained in 6, the answered is d.

9. Stock issued at price over par value is termed a premium.

10. As there is 60,000 issued and 10,00 reacquired, the outstanding is 60k -10k =50k.

11. Descriptions are put under each journal entry for explanation.

The president of a growing engineering firm wishes to give each of 20 employees a holiday bonus. how much needs to be deposited
Ludmilka [50]

Given that: F (Future worth) = $2,500, i (nominal interest rate) = 0.12, compounded monthly = 12 months, years of investment = 1 year, and no. of employees = 20. Compute using the annuity formula: A=Fi/(((1+i)^n)-1). Calculating i = 0.12/12 = 0.01, since it is compounded monthly. Calculating n (total number of compounding) = 1 x 12 = 12, since year of investment is equal to 1. Substituting F=2500, i=0.01 and n=12 to the annuity formula, you will get A=$197.12. Multiply by 20, you will get $3,942.44.
