ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEMS:

PROBLEM 1-1: SHARE SPLIT (Adapted: Practical Accounting 1, by Conrado O. Uberita, 2015

Edition, page 548)

Effective April 23, 2014, the shareholders of Warm Corporation approved a 2 for 1 share split of Warm

ordinary share and an increase in authorized ordinary share from 100,000 shares (par value P80 per

share) to 200,000 shares (par value P40 per share). Warm's Shareholders' Equity accounts

immediately before issuance of the share split shares were as follows:

Ordinary share (par value P80, 100,000 shares authorized, 50,000 shares outstanding) P4,000,000;

Share Premium (P12 per share on the issuance of ordinary share)-P600,000; and Accumulated Profits

and Losses -P5,400,000.

The split shares were issued on June 30, 2014

and Accumulated Profits and Losses, respectively, are:

a) None & P2,000,000

c) P 600,000 & P5,400,000

d) P4,600,000 & P1,400,000

Answer: C

Share split is the issue of new shares in exchange for original shares will. Par value is reduced in

proportion to the increased number of shares (split up); par value increased in proportion to the

decreased/reduced number of shares (reverse split). The total peso value of share capital, share

premium, and accumulated profits and losses do not change.
