Answer:
Kathy, inc.
a. The land should be recorded initially at $250,000. This is what it caused the company to acquire it in exchange for common stock.
b. The total amount that should be recorded for additional paid-in capital from the second situation is:
= $4,000.
Explanation:
Data and Calculations
a. Common stock issued for land = 10,000
Par value of common stock = $25
Market value of common stock = $35
Appraised value of land = $400,000
Value of land = $250,000 ($25 * 10,000)
b. Outstanding common stock = 500,000 shares
New issue of 2,000 $10 par Class A common stock at $12 = $24,000
New issue of 100 shares of no-par Class B common stock at $20 = $2,000
Total amount received = $26,000
Common stock value:
2,000 at $10 = $20,000
Additional paid-in capital = $4,000 ($24,000 - $20,000)
