Answer |
1-a) Shares Authorized = 500000. |
1-b) Shares issued = 290000 / 1 = 290000 Shares issued |
1-c) Shares Outstanding = 290000 - 3900 = 286900 Shares Outstanding. |
2) The Balance in additional paid-in capital account = 290000 * (31 - 1) = $ 8700000. |
3) Earning per share = Net income / Shares outstanding = 343320 / 286900 = 1.20 Per Share |
4) Dividend paid per share of common stock = 97274 / 286900 = 0.34 Per Share |
5) The amount for which treasury stock should be reported in the stockholders' equity section of the Balance Sheet = 3900 * 24 = $ 93600 |
6) After the stock split, the par value per share = 1 / 2 = $ 0.50 Per Share |
