ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1.
Classified by Purpose: A business may be incorporated to make a profit,
like Tim Hortons. Or, it may be incorporated as a not-for-profit, like the
Canadian Cancer Society. Alternately, a business, like the Yellow Pages
Group, could be created as an income trust, to invest in income-producing
assets.
Classified by Ownership: A corporation can be publicly held or privately
held. A publicly held corporation, like The Forzani Group Ltd., may have
thousands of shareholders, and its shares trade in an organized securities
market. A privately held corporation, like McCain Foods Limited, usually
only has a few shareholders, and its shares are not offered for sale to the
general public.
2.
(a) Limited liability of shareholders. Because of its separate legal
existence, creditors of a corporation ordinarily have recourse only to
corporate assets to satisfy their claims. Thus, the liability of
shareholders is normally limited to their investment in the corporation.
(b) Transferable ownership rights. Ownership of a corporation is held in
capital shares. The shares are transferable units. Shareholders may
dispose of part or all of their interest by simply selling their shares.
The transfer of ownership to another party is usually entirely at the
discretion of the shareholder.
(c)
3.
Ability to acquire capital. A corporation has an easier time raising
capital because of features such as limited liability and the ease of
transferring shares. Also, because only small amounts of money need
to be invested, many individuals can become shareholders. However,
small, privately held corporations can have as much difficulty getting
capital as any proprietorship or partnership.
(a) Income taxation can be an advantage for a corporation because
corporate tax rates are often lower than personal tax rates. Personal
income tax can also be deferred until income is distributed to the
shareholders as dividends. It can also be a disadvantage because the
dividends are subject to “double” taxation—once at the corporate level
and again at the personal rates of the shareholders who receive
them. The impact of these taxes is somewhat reduced by the dividend
tax credit that shareholders can claim on their personal tax returns.
(b) Corporations must pay income tax on its taxable income. Income
earned by proprietorships, partnerships and income trusts is taxed in
the hands the owners. The businesses themselves do not pay income
tax.

QUESTIONS (Continued)
4.
Small, privately held corporations are riskier than large publicly held ones.
As a result, lenders will often require the owners to sign personal
guarantees, thus eliminating the limited liability normally associated with
corporations. Because the shares are not offered for sale to the general
public, it is more difficult to raise capital. Small corporations may be run by
the shareholders, rather than professional managers. This also means that
if one of these shareholders sells his or her ownership interest, the
corporation may be significantly affected.
5.
In the absence of restrictive provisions, the basic ownership rights of
common shareholders are the rights to:
•
•
•
vote in the election of the board of directors and in corporate actions
that require shareholders' approval,
share in corporate income by receiving dividends, and
share in assets upon liquidation.
The basic ownership rights of preferred shareholders are the rights to
receive:
•
•
dividends ahead of the common shareholder, and
assets upon liquidation ahead of the common shareholder.
In exchange for these preferences, preferred shareholders normally are
not entitled to vote.
6.
The total number of shares a company is allowed to sell is called its
authorized shares—it may be an unlimited amount or a specified amount.
No journal entry is recorded when the number of authorized shares is set.
Issued shares are shares that have been sold. A journal entry will be
prepared when shares are issued. The number of issued shares can never
exceed the number of authorized shares.
7.
(a) Legal capital is capital that has been contributed by the shareholders
that must remain in the corporation, to protect creditors.
(b) Legal capital is unavailable for dividends. Retained earnings are
available for dividends. Keeping the two amounts separate on the
balance sheets enables users to see the amount of creditor protection
that exists. The distinction between amounts contributed by the
owners and amounts earned and retained by the company is not
needed for proprietorships because the proprietor has unlimited
personal liability for the debts of the business in any case.

QUESTIONS (Continued)
8.
Income trusts are established to invest in income producing assets. Unit
holders expect regular distributions. As a result, most of the earnings of
the trust are distributed, leaving very little “retained”. On the other hand,
corporations often retain a large portion of their earnings to finance their
continued operations, expansion plans, or to provide a measure of safety.
9.
When Jean-Guy purchases the original shares as part of Innovate.com’s
initial public offering, he is purchasing from the company. The $1,000 (100
X $10) he spends to buy the shares goes directly to Innovate.com and
increases the company’s assets and shareholders’ equity. In the
subsequent purchase, Jean Guy is buying in the secondary market from
another investor. The proceeds from this sale go to the seller and not to
Innovate.com. Therefore there is no impact on Innovate.com’s financial
statements as a result of the second purchase.
10. There will be no impact on Abitibi’s financial statements at the time of the
share price decline. However, should Abitibi decide it would like to raise
capital in the securities market, the price decline means it will have to sell
more shares to raise the same amount of money.
11. When shares are issued for services or noncash assets, the cost should
be measured at the fair market value of the consideration given up (the
shares). If that value cannot be reasonably determined, then the fair
market value of the consideration received should be used (the land). In
this case, the fair market value of the shares is more objectively
determinable, since the shares are actively traded in the securities market.
The appraised value of the land is merely an estimate of the land's value,
while the market price of the shares is the amount the shares were actually
worth on the date of exchange. Therefore, the land should be recorded at
$90,000.
12. A corporation may acquire its own shares: (1) to increase trading of the
company's shares in the securities market in the hope of enhancing its
market value, (2) to increase earnings per share by reducing the number
of shares issued, (3) to eliminate hostile shareholders by buying them out,
(4) to have additional shares available to be reissued to officers and
employees under bonus and stock compensation plans, or for use in the
acquisition of other companies, and (5) to comply with percentage share
ownership requirements.

QUESTIONS (Continued)
13. This transaction:
(a)
decreases total assets,
(b)
has no effect on total liabilities and,
(c)
decreases total shareholders' equity.
14. Share repurchases are transactions between the company and its
shareholders. Therefore, any resulting gains or losses cannot be reported
on the income statement. Such gains and losses are seen as an excess or
deficiency belonging to the original shareholders and are reported as an
increase or decrease in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance
sheet.
15. If there have been gains from similar transactions in the past, the resulting
credit balance of the contributed capital account is available to absorb
some or all of the loss on reacquisition. However, the balance of the
contributed capital account cannot go below zero. If the loss exceeds the
balance in the contributed capital account, the excess amount is debited to
retained earnings.
16. Common shares and preferred shares both represent ownership of the
corporation. Common shares signify the basic residual ownership;
preferred shares represent ownership with certain privileges or
preferences. Preferred shareholders typically have a preference as to
dividends and as to assets in the event of liquidation. However, preferred
shareholders generally do not have voting rights.
17. Cumulative preferred shares are those that require preferred shareholders
be paid both current year dividends and unpaid prior year dividends before
common shareholders receive any dividends. Dividends not declared for
noncumulative preferred shares are lost forever.
Redeemable preferred shares can be purchased from the shareholders,
by the issuing corporation, at the option of the corporation. If the shares
are retractable they can be sold by the shareholder, to the issuing
corporation, at the option of the shareholder.
18. (a) Dividends in arrears are dividends on cumulative preferred shares
that were not declared in a given period.
(b) Dividends in arrears are disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements; they are not recorded as liabilities.

QUESTIONS (Continued)
19. When convertible preferred shares are converted into common shares, the
shareholder simply exchanges preferred shares for common shares,
according to a predetermined rate. To record the conversion, the amount
originally paid for the preferred shares is transferred into the appropriate
common shares account. If multiple share issues have occurred at varying
prices, then the average cost for each preferred share is used instead of
the original cost.
This entry has no effect on (a) total assets, (b) total liabilities, or (c) total
shareholders' equity.
20. The three main components of shareholders' equity are:
Contributed capital,
Retained earnings, and
Accumulated other comprehensive income.
Contributed capital represents the amounts contributed by the
shareholders. Share capital and additional contributed capital (e.g., from
reacquisition of shares) are components of contributed capital.
Retained earnings represent the cumulative net income (or loss) since
incorporation that has been retained in company and not distributed to
shareholders as dividends.
Accumulated other comprehensive income represents gains and losses
not resulting from share transactions, that bypass net income. The most
common example is unrealized gains and losses on investments.

QUESTIONS (Continued)
22. Comprehensive income includes all changes in shareholders’ equity during
a period except for changes that result from the sale or repurchase of
shares or from the payment of dividends.
Accumulated other comprehensive income is reported separately from
retained earnings to distinguish unrealized gains and losses from realized
gains and losses and other sources of earned income that are
accumulated in retained earnings. Reporting this information separately
insulates income, and consequently retained earnings, from fluctuations in
market value while still informing users of the gain or loss that could have
occurred had the investment been sold.
23. Return on equity is the return earned by all the shareholders – both the
preferred and common shareholders. It is calculated by dividing net
income by the average shareholders’ equity.
Return on common shareholder’s equity is the return earned by the
common shareholders. It is calculated by dividing the net income available
to the common shareholders by the average common shareholders’
equity. Preferred dividends are deducted from net income to determine the
numerator. The legal capital of the preferred shareholders is deducted
from total shareholders equity before calculating the average common
shareholders’ equity.
24. Net income by itself does not provide shareholders with an indication of
their return per dollar of investment. Comparing net income to
shareholders’ equity provides investors with a meaningful measure of how
many dollars are earned for each dollar of their investment. It also provides
shareholders with the information necessary to compare investment
opportunities in the marketplace.

The increase in share price will have no impact on Body Shop’s
financial position. The balance sheet will be unchanged since
the shares are listed at their issue price, not their current
market value. On the other hand, the increased market
valuation of the business would enable the Body Shop to raise
funds more easily.
The shareholders would see the value of their investment
increase and could realize gains by selling some or all of their
shares.

Low $41.45
(b) $0.75
(c) 1,000 X $60.41 = $60,410
(d) $59.25 + $1.24 = $60.49 (closing price + change)
(e) 9,837 X 100 = 983,700 shares
(f)
Since the share price is up $17.80 over the 365-day low
($59.25 - $41.45) investors are probably looking primarily
for capital appreciation.

(a) The average cost of the preferred shares is $60 ($600,000 ÷
10,000 = $60).
The average cost of the common shares is $3 ($1,800,000 ÷
600,000 = $3).
(b) It will be able to sell an additional 150,000 common shares
(750,000 authorized - 600,000 issued).
(c) The company paid $2 per share, for a total of $200,000.
$100,000 ÷ 100,000 = $1 per share was credited to
contributed capital. The average issue price of $3 per share
was debited to the common shares account. The

SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS
PROBLEM 13-1A
1.
Kyle should run his beer cart business as a proprietorship
because this is the simplest form of business to establish.
It is also the least expensive. He is the only person
involved in the business and is planning to operate for a
short time.
2.
Joseph and Sabra should form a corporation when they
combine their operations. This is the best form of
business for them to choose because they need to raise
significant funds in the coming year and it is easier to
raise funds in a corporation. A corporation may also
receive more favourable income tax treatment.
3.
The professors should form a partnership for their
business. It is simpler to form than a corporation and less
costly. Each professor has contributed a similar amount
of money and expertise, and there is no mention of
additional funds being required.
4.
Abdur should form a corporation. This is the best form of
business for him to choose because he will require
significant funds to finance the chain of stores and it is
easier to raise funds in a corporation. A corporation may
also receive more favourable income tax treatment.
5.
A partnership would be the most likely form of business
for Mary and Richard to choose. It is simpler to form than
a corporation and less costly.

PROBLEM 13-11A
(a) Preferred dividends ÷ Preferred dividend per share
$150,000 ÷ $5 = 30,000 preferred shares
(b) Preferred share average price = $3,150,000 ÷ 30,000 shares
issued = $105 per share
Common share average price = $1,000,000 ÷ 250,000 shares
issued = $4 per share
(c) The shares were issued for an average selling price of $4
(see (b) above) which means the company would have
reduced the Common Shares account by $100,000 (25,000
X $4). Since a reduction to retained earnings is shown
relating to this reacquisition for $56,250, this indicates the
company had to pay $156,250 ($100,000 + $56,250) to
reacquire the 25,000 shares.
(d) Limited liability for preferred shareholders
= $3,150,000
Limited liability for common shareholders
= $4,600,000 - $3,150,000 = $1,450,000
(e) It is a loss that bypasses the income statement because it
has not yet been realized. An example is an unrealized loss

PROBLEM 13-1B
1.
A partnership would be the most likely form of business
for the students to choose. It is simpler to form than a
corporation and less costly.
2.
Chris will likely operate his lawn maintenance service as a
proprietorship because he is planning on operating it for a
short time period and a proprietorship is the simplest and
least costly to form and dissolve.
3.
Ron would likely form a corporation because he probably
needs to raise funds to buy equipment. It is normally easier
to raise funds through a corporation. A corporation is also
the only form of business that provides limited liability to it
owners. There may also be income tax benefits.
4.
Hervé would likely form a corporation because he needs to
raise funds to invest in inventories and equipment. He has
no savings or personal assets and it is normally easier to
raise funds through a corporation.
5.
A proprietorship would be the most likely form of business
for Johnny. It is simpler to form than a corporation and
less costly. A corporation is the only form of business that
provides limited liability to it owners. However, is unlikely
that incorporating the business would shield Johnny from
personal liability in the event of an accident.

PROBLEM 13-11B
(a) $1,200,000 ÷ 12,000 = $100 average selling price of the
preferred shares.
$1,000,000 ÷ 100,000 = $10 average selling price of the
common shares.
(b) It appears that there were no dividends declared in 2008
since there was no decrease in retained earnings during
the year.
(c) Since the preferred shares are noncumulative, there are no
dividends in arrears.
(d) The shares were issued for an average selling price of $10
(see (a) above) which means the company would have
reduced the common share account by $200,000 (20,000 X
$10). Since the company has established a contributed
capital account related to this reacquisition for $40,000,
this indicates the company only had to pay $160,000
($200,000 - $40,000) to reacquire the 20,000 shares.
(e) It is income that bypasses the income statement. An
example of accumulated other comprehensive income is
unrealized gains on investments that are available for sale.

CONTINUING COOKIE CHRONICLE
(a) 1. One of the major advantages of issuing preferred shares
is that the preferred shareholder does not have voting
rights. In this case, Curtis’s dad and Natalie’s
grandmother can participate in the future success of
Cookie & Coffee Creations (by receiving annual
dividends) without attempting to influence any decisions
that would require shareholder approval.
Both will receive an annual dividend as long as the
dividend is declared. Any additional dividends declared
and paid will be paid to the common shareholders. This
could prove to be another advantage to both Natalie and
Curtis if the company is successful and has excess
cash to pay out dividends.
2. It is possible to pay for the $750 legal bill by issuing
common shares. However, the cost principle still
applies. Cost must equal the cash equivalent price
which is generally the fair market value of the
consideration given up. If this amount cannot be
determined, we then look to the fair market value of the
consideration received to determine the cash equivalent
price. In this case, Curtis and Natalie are receiving
shares with a value of $1 per share. This $1 per share is
the estimated fair value of the shares being given up in
return for the legal fee expense. As a result, 750 shares
should be given up valued at $750, which is the value of
the legal fees.

BYP 13-2 INTERPRETING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(a) A corporation may acquire its own shares (1) to increase
trading of the company's shares in the securities market in
the hope of enhancing the company’s market value, (2) to
reduce the number of shares issued in order to increase
earnings per share, (3) to eliminate hostile shareholders by
buying them out, (4) to have additional shares available so
they can be reissued to officers and employees through
bonus and stock compensation plans, or used to acquire
other companies, and (5) to comply with percentage share
ownership requirements.
(b) The debit to retained earnings indicates that Talisman
Energy paid more to repurchase their common shares than
their average cost.

(c) Talisman’s profitability has improved in 2005. The
company’s profit margin, return on assets, and return on
equity are better than in 2004.
(d) The market value of Talisman’s shares depends on a
number of factors, including the company's anticipated
future earnings, its expected dividend rate per share, its
current financial position, the current state of the economy,
and the current state of the stock market. It is apparent that
investors have a positive outlook for Talisman.

Comprehensive Income reporting
The new standard concerning the recording and reporting of
comprehensive income will affect the balance sheet prepared
this fiscal year.
Comprehensive income includes all changes in shareholders’
equity during a period except for changes that result from the
sale or repurchase of shares or from the payment of dividends.
It includes the revenues, expenses, gains and losses included
in net income, as well as the gains and losses that bypass net
income but affect shareholders’ equity. The latter gains and
losses are known as “other comprehensive income (loss)”.
The most common example of other comprehensive income is
unrealized gains and losses on investments that are available
for sale. These investments must be shown at market value on
the balance sheet. Any resulting unrealized gains or losses will
be shown in the shareholders’ equity section, immediately
beneath Retained Earnings.
Reporting comprehensive income will benefit current and
potential shareholders. Net income is protected from market
fluctuations. Also, readers will be shown the gain or loss that
would have occurred if the investment had actually been sold.
Lastly, since this method is used in Europe and the United
States, it will be easier to consolidate the data from operations
in other countries that are already using the international
standard.

BYP 13-5 ETHICS CASE
(a) The stakeholders in this situation are:
The director of Simplex's R & D division.
The president of Simplex.
The shareholders of Simplex.
Those who live in the environment to be sprayed by
the new (un-tested) chemical.
(b) The president is risking the environment, and everything
and everybody in it exposed to this new chemical, in order
to enhance his company's sales and to preserve his job.
Presidents and entrepreneurs frequently take risks in
performing their leadership functions, but this action is
both irresponsible and unethical.
(c) A parent company may protect itself against loss and most
reasonable business risks by establishing separate
subsidiary corporations, but whether it can insulate itself
against this type of action is a matter of international
corporate law and criminal law.
