Provide the answers to each of the following questions:
1. What is the total issue price of the preference shares?
2. How many ordinary shares were issued?
3. How many ordinary shares are outstanding?
4. What was the total issue price of the ordinary shares?
5. What is the total legal capital of the corporation?
6. What is the total contributed capital of the corporation?
7. What is the total shareholders’ equity
8. For how much per share was the treasury stock purchased?
9. What is the amount of the required preference dividends?
Solution:
1. 70,000 shs. x P75 = P5,250,000
2. P500,000/P5 = 100,000 shs.
3. 100,000 shs. issued – 10,000 shs. in treasury = 90,000 shs. outstanding
4. P500,000 + P600,000 = P1,100,000
5. P5,250,000 + P500,000 = P5,750,000
Note: Legal capital is the portion of contributed capital that cannot be distributed to the
owners during the lifetime of the corporation unless the corporation is dissolved and all of its
liabilities is settled first. It is based on the concept of trust fund doctrine which states that share
capital of a corporation is a trust fund held for the protection of its creditors. Legal capital
is computed as follows:
a. For par value shares, legal capital is the aggregate par value of shares issued and
subscribed.
b. For no-par value shares, legal capital is the total consideration received by a corporation
for the issuance of its share to the shareholders including the excess of issue price over
the stated value.
6. P5,750,000 + P600,000 = P6,350,000
Note: Contributed capital consists of share capital, subscribed capital stock and subscription
receivable.
7. P5,250,000 + P500,000 + P600,000 + P1,000,000 – P40,000 = P7,310,000
8. P40,000/10,000 shs. = P4/sh.
9. 70,000 shs. x P75 par x 6% = P315,000
Alternatively: P5,250,000 x 6% = P315,000
