Q11-3. What features make preferred stock similar to debt? Similar to common stock?
The preferred stocks features, such as preference on dividends and potential liquidations, substantially reduce risk to the
investor, and therefore reduce risk premiums attached to stock ownership as well. In that case, it tends to follow the market
interest rates more closely than ordinary stocks.
Q11-7. How does the account “additional paid-in capital” (APIC) arise? What inferences, if any, can you draw from the amount of
APIC as reported on the balance sheet relative to the common stock amount in relation to the financial condition of the company?
APIC is the difference between the par value and the market price at the time of issuance, multiplied by the quantity of shares
issued. Not much can be inferred from this amount, considering the par value is somewhat arbitrary and does not represent
market value of the firm. It simply represent the minimum amount of capital it would keep within the company at any given
time.
