Answer:

B) A loss of $6,000 in the income statement.

Explanation:

The appropriate journal entry should be:

December 31 (recognition of loss on purchase commitments)

  • Dr Loss on Purchase Commitments account 6,000
  • Cr Accrued Loss on Purchase Commitments account 6,000

Since the price of raw materials lowered by $6,000, the company lost money on its purchase commitments:

Purchase commitments loss = contracted price - market value = $32,000 - $26,000 = $6,000

The loss on purchase commitments is an expense, and accrued loss on purchase commitments is a liability.

Answer:

Journal Entry to be recorded

DR.    Land                                           $475,000

                 Cr.     Common stock                          $312,500

                 Cr.     Add-in-capital common stock  $162,500

Explanation:

Number of Shares = 12,500 shares

Share Market price = $38

Share Par Value = $25

Total value of property to be recorded= 12,500 x $38 = $475,000

Common stock value at par = 12,500 x $25 = $312,500

Add-in-Capital common stock value = $475,000 - $312,500 = $162,500

Property will be recorded as the total value of exchange which is $475,000. On other other hand the common stock value will be recorded in two parts common stock at par value and add-in-capital common stock over par value.
