(a) Prepare the journal entry for the issuance when the market price of the common shares is $165
each and market price of the preferred is $230 each.

(b) Prepare the journal entry for the issuance when only the market price of the common stock is
known and it is $170 per share.

a)

-Cash 100,000

---Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par – Common Stock 73,199

---Common Stock 5,000

---Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par – Preferred Stock 11,801

---Preferred Stock 10,000

b)

-Cash 100,000

---Preferred Stock 10,000

---Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par – Preferred Stock 5,000

---Common Stock 5,000

---Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par – Common Stock 80,000

Solution:

(a)

Fair value of Common (500 x $165) $ 82,500

Fair value of Preferred (100 x $230) 23,000 = $105,500


Allocated to Common: $82,500/$105,500 x $100,000=$78,199

Allocated to Preferred: $23,000/$105,500 x $100,000=21,801

Total allocation =$100,000

Common Stock (500 x $10) = $5,000

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par—Common Stock ($78,199 - $5,000) = $73,199

Preferred Stock (100 x $100) = $10,000

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par—Preferred Stock ($21,801 - $10,000) = $11,801

(b)

Lump-sum receipt=$100,000

Allocated to common (500 x $170) =(85,000)

Balance allocated to preferred=$15,000

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par—Common Stock ($85,000 - $5,000)=$80,000

Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par—Preferred Stock ($15,000 - $10,000) = $5,000
