Answer:

Lindsey Hunter Corporation:

a) Journal entry to record item 1:

Debit Cash Account with $225,000

Credit Common Stock with 25,000

Credit APIC Account with $200,000

To record the issue of 5,000 shares of $5 par value at $45 per share

b) Journal entry to record item 2:

Debit Land Account with $50,000

Credit Common Stock with $5,000

Credit APIC Account with $45,000

To record the issue of 1,000 shares $5 par value at $50 per share.

c) Journal entry to record item 3:

Debit Treasury Stock with $21,500

Credit Cash with $21,500

To record the purchase of 500 treasury shares at $43 per share, using the cost method.

Explanation:

a) The costs related to the issuance of the stock totaling $7,000 had been deducted before arriving at $45 issue price.  These costs include attorney, accountants, and underwriting fees.  Companies have two options to treat these costs.  One is to treat them as organization costs and expense them accordingly or apply the costs to reduce the paid-in capital.  The later is the method elected by Lindsey Hunter and it is alright.

b) Company stock can be issued for cash or other assets, as in question 2.  The treatment is similar.  This time, Land is increased instead of cash.  The most important issue is the price at which the land is appraised and not the market value of the stock.  The difference between par value and issue value is credited or debited to the APIC account.

c) The APIC account represents "Additional Paid-in Capital" also described as Share Premium Account.  It is the excess of the issue value over the par value.

d) Treasury stock is company stock that was formerly outstanding and now bought back from stockholders.  It is a reduction of the Equity.  It is created as a contra account.  There are two methods of treating treasury stock.

One method accounts for treasury stock at cost while the second method accounts for it at par.  The difference is that when it is accounted for at cost, the repurchase value is debited to the Treasury account while the credit entry goes to the Cash account.

On the other hand, when it is accounted for at par, the par value is debited to the Treasury account while the difference between par and repurchase value is debited or credited to the APIC account.  The credit entry goes to the Cash account, as always.

An investor has sold 1 ABC Jan 50 Call and has bought 1 ABC Apr 60 Call. This is a:________.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

diagonal spread

Explanation:

Spread is basically a sale and purchase of a call. So here the the types of spreads determine the relationship between the strike price and the expiration dates of all options involved in the trade.

In this example investor has sold 1 ABC Jan 50 Call and has bought 1 ABC Apr 60 Call. This means he bought the option ABC with the longer expiration date and with a higher strike price and sold the option ABC with the near expiration date and the lower strike price. Here both the expiration and strike price are different. So this is an example of diagonal spread.

The option horizontal spread is incorrect because it is a spread that depicts the difference in expiration dates but strike price is the same. Here both the expiration and strike price are different.

The option straddle is incorrect because it is a spread in which both options have the same expiry date and same strike price. Here both the expiration and strike price are different.

The option dialogue spread is not a valid option too.

The option Combination is also suitable because this is an example of Combination and combinations include option spread trades such as vertical spreads, horizontal spreads, and diagonal spreads.

So the most suitable option is diagonal spread which is an example of Combination.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

The returns of a capital amount to a compensation rate for depositing the money, to calculate these returns an interest rate is used by which the deposited capital is multiplied, in this case the rate is 4%.

As the money distributed is only the product of interest, then that money is the result of multiplying the capital by the interest rate, to obtain how much money Mr. Jefferson contributed, the reverse process will have to be done.

Answers

let <em>C</em> be the capital, then :

C\times4 \%  = 170500\\C\times\frac{4}{100}= 170500\\C=170500\times\frac{100}{4}\\C=4262500

The capital contributed by Mr. Jefferson was <em>$4,262,500</em>
