charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Additional paid-in capital is $904,200

Explanation:

Number of shares, issued and outstanding = 93,000 shares

Acquired 2,460 shares of its stock for $75,000.

Sold 2,000 treasury shares at $35 per share.

Sold the remaining 460 treasury shares at $20 per share.

i) Acquired 2,460 shares of its stock for $75,000.

= Treasury Stock Dr $75,000

ii) Sold 2,000 treasury shares at $35 per share.

Treasury Stock (2,000 × $35) = Dr $70,000

iii) Sold the remaining treasury shares at $20 per share.

Treasury Stock (460 × $20) = Dr $9,200

Total Treasury Stock = $75,000 - $70,000 - $9,200

= ($4,200)

Paid in Cap-tresury stock= 10,000-5000=5000

Additional Paid in capital = Paid in Capital - treasury stock

= 900,000 + 4,200 = $904,200

Answer:

Minimum Transfer Price is $3.50

Explanation:

The Minimum transfer price is calculated by adding the variable cost per unit with the opportunity cost. In this case where the clock division is not operating at full capacity then the opportunity cost would be considered as $0.

Moreover, the division would be able to avoid a $0.5 cost per clock. Therefore, the variable cost will be $3.50 ($4 - $0.5) after eliminating the $0.5.

Finally, the minimum transfer would as follows:

Minimum Transfer Price = Variable cost + Opportunity Cost

Minimum Transfer Price = $3.50 + $0

Minimum Transfer Price = $3.50
