Factors in setting price for a new issue of stock:

2. its expected dividend rate per share
3. its current financial position
4. the current state of the economy
5. the current state of the securities market
Chapter

Stock Issue Considerations

Market Value of Stock


Stock of publicly held companies is traded on
organized exchanges.
Interaction between buyers and sellers determines
the prices per share.
Prices set by the marketplace tend to follow the
trend of a company’s earnings and dividends.
Factors beyond a company’s control, may cause day-
to-day fluctuations in market prices.

Chapter
14-22
Stock Issue Considerations

Par and No-Par Value Stock


Years ago, par value determined the legal capital
per share that a company must retain in the
business for the protection of corporate creditors.
Today many states do not require a par value.
No-par value stock is quite common today.
In many states the board of directors assigns a
stated value to no-par shares.

received, whichever is more clearly determinable.

Accounting for Treasury Stock

Treasury stock - corporation’s own stock that it


has reacquired from shareholders, but not retired.
Corporations purchase their outstanding stock:
1. To reissue the shares to officers and employees under
bonus and stock compensation plans.
2. To enhance the stocks market value.
3. To have additional shares available for use in the
acquisition of other companies.
4. To increase earnings per share.
5. To rid the company of disgruntled investors, perhaps to
avoid a takeover.
Chapter
14-34
Accounting for Treasury Stock

Purchase of Treasury Stock


• Debit Treasury Stock for the price paid to
reacquire the shares.

•Treasury stock is a contra stockholders’


equity account, not an asset.

•Purchase of treasury stock reduces


stockholders’ equity.

Stock Dividends
Reasons why corporations issue stock dividends:
1. To satisfy stockholders’ dividend expectations
without spending cash.
2. To increase the marketability of the corporation’s
stock.

has been permanently reinvested in the business.

Size of Stock Dividends

Small stock dividend (less than 20–25% of the


corporation’s issued stock, recorded at fair
market value) *

Large stock dividend (greater than 20–25% of


issued stock, recorded at par value)

* This accounting is based on the assumption that a small


stock dividend will have little effect on the market price of
the outstanding shares.
