Module 1 Shareholders Equity
Learning Outcomes:
Shareholders’ equity of a corporation consists of the investments of the shareholders. It is the obligation of the
management to protect this wealth in order to build trust between the investors. In line with this, here is a bible
verse that you can reflect on regarding this lesson:
Proverbs 13:11
Wealth gained hastily will dwindle, but whoever gathers little by little will increase it.
✓ When a corporation issues shares of stocks, how do they account for it? Do they simply issue stock certificates
and record the number of stocks belonging to shareholders? How about if they want to repurchase issued
shares to decrease the control of the shareholders? How about if they wanted to issue dividends? In this
module, you will encounter examples dealing with this situations and other scenarios.
Introduction:
Corporations are characterized by absentee ownership and limited liability. They have a separate personality from
its owners. Meeting financial needs of a corporation involves generating funds from public investors. Protecting the
interest of this investors is the primary reason why corporations are subjected to government regulation and control.
Body:
Definition of terms:
Corporators – those who compose the corporation whether shareholders or members or both
Incorporators – those corporators mentioned in the articles of incorporation as originally forming and composing
the corporation
Directors – those entitled to exercise corporate powers, conduct all business, and control all properties of the
corporation. A director who ceases to own at least one (1) share of stock or a trustee who ceases to be a member of the
corporation shall cease to be such.
Stock Corporation - those which have capital stock divided into shares and are authorized to distribute to the holders
of such shares, dividends, or allotments of the surplus profits on the basis of the shares held
Nonstock corporation – those which do not maintain a capital stock divided into shares. Basic distinction of law is that
all corporations not falling under the classification of a stock corporation shall be considered nonstock corporation
As we have discussed on our Basic Accounting subject, the three forms of business organization are single
proprietorship, partnership, and corporation. Whereas the capital accounts of the said organizations are called:
Business Organization Capital Account
Sole Proprietorship Owner’s Equity (or simply Capital)
Partnership Partner’s Equity/Capital
Corporation Shareholders’ Equity
In a single proprietorship and partnership, the investment of the owner/s and the changes therein resulting from net
income or loss from operations are recorded in the capital accounts.
However, in a corporation, distinction is made between invested capital and earnings or losses accumulated in the
business.
Concept of a corporation
A corporation is an artificial being created by operation of law, having the right of succession, and the powers, attributes
and properties expressly authorized by law or incident to its existence
A corporation is a legal or juridical person with a personality separate and apart from the individual members or
shareholders who, as natural persons, are merged in one corporate body.
The corporation is not in fact and in reality, a person but the law treats it as though it were a person by process of
fiction.
The shareholders of the company compose the corporation, but they are not the corporation. This is the
concept of Corporate Fiction
Organization of a Corporation
A corporation is created by operation of law.
This means that a corporation cannot come into existence by mere agreement of parties as in the case of a business
partnership. A corporation requires the authority and grant from the state.
In the Philippines, the general law which governs the creation of private corporations is the Corporation Code Of the
Philippines – Batas Pambansa bilang 68, which was then further revised by Republic Act 11232 – Revised
Corporation Code of the Philippines.
Private corporations owned or controlled by the government or any subdivision or instrumentaility thereof are created by
special laws.
Legal requirement
Any person, partnership, association or corporation, singly or jointly with others but not more than fifteen (15) in
number, may organize a corporation for any lawful purpose or purposes: Provided, That natural persons who are licensed
to practice a profession, and partnerships or associations organized for the purpose of practicing a profession, shall not
be allowed to organize as a corporation unless otherwise provided under special laws. Incorporators who are natural
persons must be of legal age.
Each incorporator of a stock corporation must own or be a subscriber to at least one (1) share of the capital stock.
A corporation with a single stockholder is considered a One Person Corporation as described in Title XIII, Chapter III of
this Code.
Contents of Articles of Incorporation
All corporations shall file with the Commission articles of incorporation in any of the official languages, duly signed and
acknowledged or authenticated, in such form and manner as may be allowed by the Commission, containing
substantially the following matters, except as otherwise prescribed by this Code or by special law:
(b) The specific purpose or purposes for which the corporation is being formed. Where a corporation has more
than one stated purpose, the articles of incorporation hsall indicate the primary purpose and the secondary
purpose or purposes: Provided, That a nonstock corporation may not include a purpose which would change or
contradict its nature as such;
(c) The place where the principal office of the corporation is to be located, which must be within the Philippines;
(d) The term for which the corporation is to exist, if the corporation has not elected perpetual existence;
(f) The number of directors, which shall not be more than fifteen (15) or the number of trustees which may be
more than fifteen (15);
(g) The names, nationalities, and residence addresses of persons who shall act as directors or trustees
until the first regular directors or trustees are duly elected and qualified in accordance with this Code;
(h) If it be a stock corporation, the amount of its authorized capital stock, number of shares into which it is
divided, the par value of each, names, nationalities, and subscribers, amount subscribed and paid by each on the
subscription, and a statement that some or all of the shares are without par value, if applicable;
(i) If it be a nonstock corporation, the amount of its capital, the names, nationalities, and residence addresses
of the contributors, and amount contributed by each; and
(j) Such other matters consistent with law and which the incorporators may deem necessary and convenient.
The Articles of incorporation and applications for amendments thereto may be filed with the Commission in the
form of an electronic document, in accordance with the Commission's rule and regulations on electronic filing.
What are the differences of a Shareholder and a Director?
The basic concept is that the shareholders are the owners of a corporation. However, it is fairly common that a
corporation would have a large number of shareholders especially in the case of a listed corporation (those whose shares
are publicly traded in the Philippine Stock Exchange). Hence, it would be burdensome to gather all the shareholders and
agree on routine business decisions.
This is where the role of a director takes place. Board of Directors are established to act as the governing body of a
corporation, which is in charge of exercising corporate powers, conducting all corporate business, and controlling/holding
corporate property. The board of directors shall perform the duties enjoined on them by law and by the bylaws of the
corporation.
The Commission may disapprove the articles of incorporation or any amendment thereto if the same is not compliant
with the requirements of this Code: Provided, That the Commission shall give the incorporators, directors, trustees, or
officers as reasonable time from receipt of the disapproval within which to modify the objectionable portions of the
articles or amendment. The following are ground for such disapproval:
(a) The articles of incorporation or any amendment thereto is not substantially in accordance with the form
prescribed herein;
(b) The purpose or purposes of the corporation are patently unconstitutional, illegal, immoral or contrary to
government rules and regulations;
(c) The certification concerning the amount of capital stock subscribed and/or paid is false; and
(d) The required percentage of Filipino ownership of the capital stock under existing laws or the Constitution
has not been complied with.
No articles of incorporation or amendment to articles of incorporation of banks, banking and quasi-banking institutions,
preneed, insurance and trust companies, NSSLAs, pawnshops and other financial intermediaries shall be approved by the
Commission unless accompanied by a favorable recommendation of the appropriate government agency to the effect
that such articles or amendment is in accordance with law.
After the filing of articles of incorporation, the corporation commences to have judicial personality and legal existence
only from the moment the Securities and Exchange Commission issues to the incorporators a Certificate of
Incorporation
A person or group of persons desiring to incorporate shall submit the intended corporate name to the Commission for
verification. If the Commission finds that the name is distinguishable from a name already reserved or registered for the
use of another corporation, not protected by law and is not contrary to law, rules and regulation, the name shall be
reserved in favor of the incorporators. The incorporators shall then submit their articles of incorporation and bylaws to
the Commission.
If the Commission finds that the submitted document s and information are fully compliant with the requirements of this
Code, other relevant laws, rules and regulations, the Commission shall issue the certificate of incorporation.
A private corporation organized under this Code commences its corporate existence and juridical personality from the
date the Commission issues the certificate of incorporation under its official seal thereupon the incorporators,
stockholders/members and their successors shall constitute a body corporate under the name stated in the articles of
incorporation for the period of time mentioned therein, unless said period is extended or the corporation is sooner
dissolved in accordance with law.
Section 19. De facto Corporations. - The due incorporation of any corporation claiming in good faith to be a corporation
under this Code, and its right to exercise corporate powers, shall not be required into collaterally in any private suit to
which such corporation may be a party. Such inquiry may be made by the Solicitor General in a quo
warranto proceeding.
Section 20. Corporation by Estoppel. - All persons who assume to act as a corporation knowing it to be without the
authority to do so shall be liable as general partners for all debts, liabilities and damages incurred or arising as a result
thereof: Provided, however, That when any such ostensible corporation is sued on any transaction entered by its as a
corporation or on any tort committed by it as such, it shall not be allowed to use on any its lack of corporate personality
as a defense. Anyone who assumes an obligation to an ostensible corporation as such cannot resist performance thereof
on the ground that there was in fact no corporation.
If a corporation does not formally organize and commence its business within five (5) year from the date of its
incorporation, its certificate of incorporation shall be deemed revoked as of the day following the end of the five (5)-year
period.
However, if a corporation has commenced its business but subsequently becomes inoperative for a period of at least five
(5) consecutive years, the Commission may, after due notice and hearing, place the corporation under delinquent status.
A delinquent corporation shall have a period of two (2) years to resume operations and comply with all requirements that
the Commission shall prescribed. Upon the compliance by the corporation, the Commission shall issue an order lifting the
delinquent status. Failure to comply with the requirements and resume operations within the period given by the
Commission shall cause the revocation of the corporation's certificate of incorporation.
The Commission shall give reasonable notice to, and coordinate with the appropriate regulatory agency prior to the
suspension or revocation of the certificate of incorporation of companies under their special regulatory jurisdiction.
BY-LAWS
By-laws may be defined as the rules of action adopted by the corporation for its internal government and for the
government of its officers, shareholders, or members.
The by-laws shall be adopted and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within one month from the date of
incorporation. Failure to do so shall render the corporation liable for the revocation of its registration.

1. Legal Capital
Because of its limited liability, corporations are required by law to protect the interest of the shareholders by
requiring the corporation to maintain in its equity an amount at least equal to its legal capital.
For corporations that issue share capital with par value, legal capital represents the following:
• Share capital including Share dividends distributable
• Subscribed share capital
• Share dividends distributable
On the other hand, corporations that issue no par value shares, legal capital consist of the following:
• Share capital including Share dividends distributable
• Subscribed share capital
• Share premium – Excess over stated value
2. Retained Earnings
This is called Accumulated Profits under IFRS and represents the following:
• Accumulated Profit/Loss
• Prior Period Adjustments
• Dividends declared
• Other transactions affective share capital
• Revaluation Surplus
• Unrealized Gains/Losses on FVOCI
• Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment Gains and Losses
• Actuarial Gains and Losses on Defined Benefit Plan
This account is related to long-term unpaid amount of the subscribed share capital. This decreases the total
shareholders’ equity.
5. Treasury Shares
This is related to shares that were issued and repurchased by the company. This is recorded at cost and
decreases the total shareholders’ equity.
Ordinary share represents the residual ownership interest in the corporation. The ordinary shareholders bear the
ultimate risk of loss and receive the benefits of success of the corporation. Corporation law provides the basic rights of
ordinary shareholders, namely:
On the other hand, preference shares are special class of shares that possesses certain preferential rights that are not
found in an ordinary share. They are usually issued with a par value and divided preference is expressed as percentage
of par value. For example, 10,000 10% Preference shares issued at P10 par value. Generally, preference shares do not
have a voting right. Most common features attached to preference shares are:
✓ Cumulative
• Entitled to any dividends that are not declared in the prior period, which is also called dividend in arrears,
such that when dividends declared are declared in the current period, dividends in arrears are to be satisfied
first.
✓ Participating
• Additional dividends are paid proportionate to ordinary shareholders on the basis of total par value in excess
of a fixed amount or rate
✓ Convertible
• Holders are entitled to exchange the preference share to ordinary share
✓ Callable
• Corporation have the right, not the obligation, to reacquire and retire the share at a fixed or determinable
call price. This is presented as part of equity.
✓ Redeemable
• These are shares that are required to be retired or reacquired by issuing corporation, at the option of the
shareholder, or in most cases, at a certain or determinable date.
Authorized shares are the maximum number of shares that the corporation may issue as stated in the articles of
incorporation.
Issued shares represent the shares that the corporation has issued to its share holders as of a specific date. This is
indicated by the amount reported in the share capital account and expressed in terms of number of shares.
Outstanding shares are shares that have been issued and are still in the hands of the shareholders at a specific
date. This is computed as issued shares minus treasury shares.
Treasury shares represent shares that have been issued and reacquired, but not retired, by the corporation, either
by purchase or donation. A treasury share has no voting or preemptive right. It does not participate in any type of
dividends and no right to assets in the event of liquidation.
Subscribed shares are shares of stock that will be issued upon completion of deferred payment purchase contract
with an investor. Subscribed shares that are not delinquent shall have the rights of a shareholder including right to
dividends.

Example 200 P10 par value ordinary shares are 200 ordinary shares are issued for cash
issued for cash of 4,000 of 4,000. Shares have neither par value
nor stated value
Example:
Building was bought by the Company by issuing 200,000, P50 par ordinary shares. Building is valued at P15,000,000 at
purchased date.
Building 15,000,000
Ordinary Share Capital 10,000,000
Share Premium-Ordinary 5,000,000
If there was no equivalent price for the building and land had no market but the shares are traded at 80 per share, the
land would have been recorded at P16,000,000.
Building 16,000,000
Ordinary Share Capital 10,000,000
Share Premium-Ordinary 6,000,000
If the shares are issued in consideration for goods or services received from an employee, IFRS 2, Share Based Payment,
requires that the transaction be recorded at the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Any excess of the fair value
over the par value of shares issued is credited to share premium.
A subscription is a legally binding contract between the corporation and the subscriber (investor) which provides that the
subscriber will buy a certain number of shares at an agreed proce with the payment spread over a specified period of
time or deferred at a later date. The contract usually requires down payment and may contain provisions for the handling
of any defaults by the subscriber.
At the time of subscription, Subscription Receivable account is debited for the full subscription of price and Subscriber
Share Captail is credited for the par or stated value of the subscribed shares with any excess reflected as share
premium. When amounnt due is collected, cash is debited and receivable is credited. Upon full collections, issuance of
shares is recorded by debit to subscribed share capital and credit to share capital.
Pro forma entries:
Any balance in the Subscribed Share Capital is presented under Contributed Capital. Subscription Receivable is reported
as deduction from shareholders’ equity or may be shown as current asset if collection is expected within one year or less.
In case of delinquent subscriptions (i.e., when subscriber is unable to pay subscriptions due, the corporation can resort
to the following remedies:
Assume the following data for Friends Corporation. Joey subscribed to 1,000 shares of P100 par value ordinary shares at
par. A 25% down payment was given by Joey and the balance payable in two equal installments. Joey paid the first
installment but defaulted in the second. The unpaid subscription was offered for sale at a publci auction. Advertising
costs amounted to P5,000. Ross made a bid for 800 shares, Chandler for 700 shares and Phoebe for 600 shares.
At downpayment:
Cash 25,000
Subscription Receivable 75,000
Subscribed Ordinary Share Capital 100,000
Cash 37,500
Subscription Receivable 37,500
Cash 42,500
Receivable from highes bidder 42,500
In the illustration, Phoebe is the highest bidder. Hence the 1,000 shares shall be distributed as follows, to Phoebe 600
shares, Joey, 400 shares.
If there were no bidder for the delinquent shares, the shares will be issued in the name of the corporation and be placed
in the treasury ( Sec. 68, Par. 4 Corporation Code of the Philippines). The cost assigned to the Treasury shares is the
cancelled balance of the Receivable from the Highest Bidder. Continuing from the illustration above, if there were no
bidder, entries for the issuance of shares in the name of the corporation are:
When two or more classes of equity securities are issued for a single payment, the lumpsum price is allocated
among the classes of securities issued on their relative fair values (proportional method).
To illustrate, assume B99 Corporation issued for a lumpsum price of P178,000, 1,000 ordinary shares with par value of
P100 and 500 preference shares with par value of P50. On the date of issuance, XYZ’s ordinary shares were selling at
135, while its preference shares were selling at P90. Based on published price quoatations, the fair values are as follows:
Class No. of shares Fair value per share Total fair values
Ordinary 1,000 135 P135,000
Preference 500 90 45,000
Total Fair Value 180,000
Cash 178,000
Ordinary Share Capital 100,000
Share Premium – Ordinary 33,500
Preference Share Capital 25,000
Share Premium Preference 19,500
Share Issue Costs and Stock Assessments
An entity typically incurs various costs in issuing its own equity isntruments. These costs might include registration
and other regulatory fees, legal fees, printing costs and stamp duties. The costs are accounted for as a deduction from
equity (net of any related income tax benefit), by a charge to share premium pertaining to that issue, if any. If there ais
no resulting share premium pertaining to that issue, share issue costs are recorded as expenses.
The amount of transaction costs accounted for as a deduction from equity in the period is disclosed separately in the
statement of changes in equity.
A company may find it desirable to reacquire its own shares for variety of reasons such as: improve earnings of share by
reducing number of shares outstanding, to support market price of the shares, to increase ration of debt to equity or to
obtain shares for share option plans and conversion of other securities.
If shares are reacquired then retired, Share capital is debited equal to the par (or stated value, in case of no par
with stated value) of the shares retired. Share Premium is debited equivalent to the amount of credit at the date the shares
were originally issued; and Cash is credited equal to the retirement price.
If retirement price is less than orginal issue price of the shares being retired, the difference is credited to a share
premium account appropriately described. If the reitrement price exceeds the original issue price, difference is debited to
the following accounts in the order given;
1. Share premium from previous retirement or treasury share transactions of the same class of share
2. Retained Earnings
Assume that an enterprise acquires 1,000 of its own P100 par value preference share. These shares were originally
issued at P110. Retirement of the preference shares would be recorded as follows:
*Share premium from previous retirement of preference shares, if any, is charged; any deficiency is charged to
retained earnings.
Treasury Shares Acquired by Purchase
When an entity reacquires its own equity instruments that are held for reissue, such instruments referred to as
treasury shares or treasury stock. Technically, a treasury share is a corporation’s own share that has been reacquired after
having been issued and fully paid but not retired.
A treasury share is not an asset, but a contra-account to shareholders’ equity. Similar to unissued share capital,
the holder does not have the right to vote, to exercise pre-emptive right as shareholder, to receive cash dividends, or to
receive assets upon corporate liquidation.
No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of entity’s own equity
instruments. The consideration paid or received shall be recognized directly in equity.
Upon acquisitin, treasury share is recorded at cost, irrespective of whether these are acquired above or below the
par value. Upon resale of the treasury shares, the Treasury Share account is credited at cost. If the issue price is less than
the cost of the treasury share, the difference is charged to a share premium account from treasury share transactions (to
the extent of the balance) and any remainder of the difference is charged to retained earnings account; whereas, if the
reissue price is greater than the cost of the treasury shares, the entiire excess is credited to share premium, not to retained
earnings.
Illustration:
1,000 shares of P100 par ordinary shares were reacquired at P150 per share. The entry to record the reacquisition is
Assume that 400, of the treasury shares were subsequently sold at P160 per share; and the remaining were later sold at
P140 per share. The resale of the 400 shares at P160 is recorded as follows:
Cash 64,000
Treasury Shares 60,000
Share Premium – Treasury Shares 4,000
The resale of the 600 shares at P140 at a later date is recorded as follows:
Cash 84,000
Share Premium – Treasury Shares 4,000
Retained Earnings 2,000
Treasury Shares 90,000
It will be noted that Share Premium account may be debited or credited for treasury share transactions. Retained Earnings
account, however, may be debited, but is never credited for treasury share transactions.
Limitation on Treasury Shares
Corporation can reacquire treasury shares provided that the corporation has unrestricted retained earnings in its
book to cover the shares to be purchased or acquired. Thus, when a corporation has treasury share recorded at cost, an
amount of retained earnings equal to such cost should be approporiated for that purpose. The appropriation is necessary
so as not to impair legal capital even with the purchase of the treasury shares.
The cost of treasury shares held by the Company is presented as deduction from total shareholders’ equity in the
statement of financial position.
Shares may be donated to enable the Company to raise capital by reselling the shares. Since donated shares are
acquired without any cost, the transaction does not affect the corporation’s assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity.
Although the receipt of donated shares does not affect the total issued shares, it decreases the outstanding shares.
The donation is recorded by means of memorandum entry. In some instances that the fair value of the share
capital is kown at the time of donation, the receipt may be rcorded by debiting Treasury Shares and crediting Donated
Capital or Share Premium approporiately described for an amount equal to the fair value of donated shares.
If the receipt if the donated shares was recorded by memorandum entry, the entire proceeds from the subsequent
resale of these donated shares are credited to Donated Capital or Share Premium from Donated Shares. If the donated
shares were recorded at market value at time of receipt, only the excess of the reissue price over the previously recognized
amount for the Treasury Shares is credited to Donated Capital, Share Premium from Donated Shares.
Example:
Several shareholders of ABC Company donated to the corporation, a portion of their holdings totaling 1,000 shares of P100
par value ordinary shares. Subsequently, all donated shares were reissued at P130 per share. Journal entries are as follows:
(a) There is no available fair value for the shares at this time.
Memo. One thousand (1,000) shares of p100 par value ordinary shares were received as donation from various
shareholders.
Cash 130,000
Donated Capital 130,000
(b) Fair value for the donated ordinary share is known at P120 per share.
Cash 130,000
Treasury Shares 120,000
Donated Capital 10,000
The total shareholders’ equity is not affected by the choice of the method used to account for the donated treasury shares.
SHARE SPLIT OR STOCK SPLIT
Stock Split (share split under IFRS) is the issuance by an enterprise of its own ordinary shares to its ordinary
shareholders without consideration and under conditions indicating that such action is prompted mainly by a desire to
increase the number of outstanding shares. The purpose of such acction is to effect a reduction in their unit fair value and
obtain wider distribution and improved marketability of the shares. This is accompanied by a reduction in the par value of
the share capital.
Reverse share split decreases the number of shares outstanding with a corresponding increase in the value of the
shares. This will raise the unit market price of the corporation’s shares of stock.
Share split and reverse share split are recorded as memo entry since shareholders’ equity component and total
shareholders’ equity are left unchanged effecting the split.
