1. Retained Earnings, TreasuryStock, and the Income Statement Chapter 14

2. Retained Earningsand Dividends • Retained Earnings shows the amount of income allowed to accumulate from the beginning of the corporation’s life to the present. • Retained Earnings represents a claim on assets, but it is not cash.

3. Retained Earningsand Dividends • The balance in the Income Summary account is closed to Retained Earnings at period end. • Dividends are distributions to the stockholders. • To declare dividends there must be adequate retained earnings.

4. Account for stock dividends. Objective 1

5. Stock Dividends • What are stock dividends? • They are a proportional distribution of a corporation’s own stock to shareholders. • They do not change total stockholders’ equity. • A stock dividend is a transfer of retained earnings to contributed capital.

6. Small Stock Dividend Example • The dividend is valued at the product of the number of shares distributed times the market price at declaration date. • San Diego Company, with 300,000 shares of $2 par value common stock outstanding, declares a 15% stock dividend when the shares are trading at $20.

7. Small Stock Dividend Example • How much stock do the shareholders receive? • 300,000 × 15% = 45,000 shares • 45,000 at $20 per share = $900,000, and 45,000 at $2 per share = $90,000 What is the entry when the dividend is distributed?

8. Retained Earnings 900,000 Common Stock 90,000 Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par 810,000 15% common stock dividend distributed Small Stock Dividend Example

9. Large Stock Dividend • This significantly increases the number of shares outstanding and is likely to reduce the per share price. • A common practice is to transfer the par value of the dividend shares from Retained Earnings to Common Stock.

10. Large Stock Dividend Example • A 50% dividend is declared on a company’s $1 par value common. • There are 200,000 shares outstanding. Retained Earnings 100,000 Common Stock 100,000 50% common stock dividend distributed

11. Stock Split • This is an increase in the number of authorized, issued, and outstanding shares. • It is a reduction in the par value. • The market value is usually affected proportionately.

12. Stock Split • A 5-for-1 stock split means that the company would have five times as many shares outstanding after the split as it had before. • Each share’s par value would be divided by five.

13. Stock Split Example • Prior to a 5-for-1 split, San Diego Company had 500,000 shares of $10 par common stock authorized and 100,000 issued. • After the split, 2,500,000 are authorized. • 500,000 are issued. • What is the par value per share? • $10 ÷ 5 = $2

14. Distinguish stock splits from stock dividends. Objective 2

15. Similarities Between StockSplits and Stock Dividends Both increase the number of shares of stock owned per stockholder. Neither change the investor’s cost of the stock they own. Neither type of income creates taxable income for the investor.

16. Differences Between StockSplits and Stock Dividends • A stock dividend shifts an amount from retained earnings to paid-in capital. • The par value per share remains unchanged. • A stock split affects no account balance. • It changes the par value of the stock. • It increases the number of shares of stock authorized, issued, and outstanding.

20. Treasury Stock Example Stockholders’ Equity (Before purchase of treasury stock) Common stock, $10 par, 10,000 issued $100,000 + Paid-in capital in excess of par 800,000 = Total paid-in capital $900,000 + Retained earnings 50,000 = Total stockholders’ equity $950,000

21. Treasury Stock Example (After purchase of treasury stock) Common stock, $10 par, 10,000 issued, 9,000 outstanding $100,000 + Paid-in capital in excess of par 800,000 + Retained earnings 50,000 = Subtotal $950,000 – Treasury stock, 1,000 shares 20,000 = Total stockholders’ equity $930,000

22. Sale of Treasury Stock Example • No gain or loss is recognized on the sale of treasury shares. • Excess of sales price over cost is credited to Paid-in Capital-Treasury Stock transactions. • Assume that 100 shares of treasury stock are sold at $22.
