A corporation has excess cash due to the introduction of a new product. The corporation expects that the sales of the product will grow in the upcoming years and would like to reduce costs by combining businesses with a supplier. Would this be an example of investing in a long-term investment, temporary investment, or current operations? Long-term investment 2. Due to a recent peak in sales during the busy season, a corporation has excess cash. The corporation would like to earn extra income from the cash but would like to be able to liquidate the investment into cash if it is needed. Is the corporation looking to invest in its current operations, a temporary investment, or long-term investment? Temporary investment 3. A corporation is looking for ways to increase its profit margin on its best-selling product by reducing costs. The manager determines that buying a new piece of equipment for $5,750 would reduce monthly costs by $400. Would the corporation be investing in its current operations, a temporary investment, or long-term investment with the purchase of this equipment? Current operations Strategy: Investing in current operations finances the day-to-day needs of the business. Temporary investments will generate extra income for the business but does not require as large of a commitment as a long-term investment, which impacts the business for many future accounting periods. 1

Otherwise, the seller would lose the interest revenue since the buyer will receive the interest. The journal entry to record the purchase includes increasing Bonds Receivable and Interest Receivable with a debit and crediting Cash for the amount paid. The journal entry should also record any discount received or premium paid. Interest Receivable should be increased for the amount of the interest earned between the last interest payment and the date of purchase. 9. Use the information from Exercise 8 to prepare the receipt of interest on December 31 for Sunshine Books. The premium amortization for the period totals $60. Dec. 31 Cash Interest Receivable Premium on Bonds Receivable Interest Revenue Cash received: $15,000 5% ½ year Strategy: Upon receipt of the interest payment, debit Cash for amount of interest received. Remove the receivable by crediting Interest Receivable for the amount previously recorded. Record any amortization of the discount or premium, and any remainder should be recorded as Interest Revenue to show that the bondholder has earned that amount of interest since the purchase.

5 Investments and Fair Value Accounting 5 Strategy: To record the sale of a bond, credit Bonds Receivable for its face amount. If any unamortized premium or discount still exists for the bond, it should also be removed from the books. Credit Interest Revenue for the amount of interest earned since the last payment date because the bondholder has earned the income for holding the bond. If the cash received is greater than the carrying value of the bond and interest earned, a gain should be recorded (as a credit). If the cash received is less than the carrying value of the bond and interest earned, a loss should be recorded (as a debit). 13. Brady s Brunch purchases 10% of the outstanding stock of Texas Suppliers for $35,000 on January 1, On May 15, 2015, Brady s Brunch receives $1,000 in dividends from Texas Suppliers.

Sale of ⅓ of stock for $7,500 on December 31, 2015 Dec. 31 Cash 7,500 Gain on Sale of Investments 3,500 Investments-Charleston Carriers 4,000 Strategy: Under the cost method, equity investments should be recorded at their cost when purchased. Dividend revenue should be recorded when earned. Upon sale, credit the Investment account for its cost since the account does not reflect any changes in value. If the cash received is greater than its cost, credit Gain on Sale of Investments. If the cash received is less than the cost of the investment, debit Loss on Sale of Investments.

The account should also reflect income earned or loss of the investee. If the investee produced income, credit Income of the Investee and debit the investment account to reflect the increase. Record a loss of the investee with a debit to Loss of the Investee and a credit to the investment account to reflect the decrease. Dividend received also decrease the investment account because the investor has received income from its investment.

Losses decrease Valuation Allowance for Trading Investments with a credit and a corresponding debit to Unrealized Loss on Trading Investments. The balance in the valuation account should reflect the difference between the cost and fair value of the investments.

A debit in the valuation allowance account means an increase in value of the securities, while a credit indicates a decrease in value of the securities. Held-to-maturity securities should be presented at carrying cost. 29. A corporation uses fair value accounting to account for its trading investments. The investments were purchased for $56,000, but are now worth $62,000. How will this be shown on the balance sheet and income statement? Balance sheet: Use a valuation allowance account to record the $6,000 increase in value Income statement: Report the unrealized gain of $6,000

14 14 Chapter A corporation uses fair value accounting to report its available-for-sale securities. The investments were purchased for $31,000, but are now worth only $29,750. How will the balance sheet and income statement reflect the change in value? Balance sheet: Use a valuation allowance account to record the $1,250 decrease in value, stockholders equity should include the unrealized loss of $1,250 in other comprehensive income Income statement: none 31. A corporation uses fair value accounting to account for its available-for-sale securities. The corporation s balance sheet shows a balance in accumulated other comprehensive income that increases stockholders equity by $1,750. If the securities were purchased for $21,600, what is the fair value of the securities? If the accumulated other comprehensive income increases stockholders equity, the securities have an increase in value (unrealized gain). The value of the securities is $23,350 ($21,600 + $1,750). Strategy: The balance sheet should reflect the fair value of available-for-sale and trading securities using a valuation allowance account. Changes in value of trading securities should be shown on the income statement, as an unrealized gain or loss. Changes in value of available-for-sale securities should be shown on the balance sheet, under stockholders equity as other comprehensive income. 32. Use the information below to calculate MSA Corporation s dividend yield as of the 2015 and 2016 year-end. Round percentages to two decimal places. Determine if the change makes the corporation s stock more or less attractive to investors Dividends per share of common stock $3.25 $4.25 Market price per share of common stock Dividend yield 5.68% 7.16% The decrease in the dividend yield may cause the stock to seem less attractive to investors because they will receive less income compared to their investment. However, if the company didn t pay dividends in order to invest in internal projects and grow, the investment may be attractive to investors.

15 Investments and Fair Value Accounting Use the information below to calculate the dividend yield for the two corporations. Round percentages to two decimal places. If an investor would like to receive a high dividend from his investment, which stock should he purchase? ABC Corp. XYZ Inc. Total dividends paid $95,400 $18,500 Preferred stock dividends 30,500 6,700 Number of common shares outstanding 10,000 3,800 Market price per share of common stock Dividends per share of common stock ($95,400 $30,500)/10,000 shares ($18,500 $6,700)/3,800 shares Dividend yield 14.39% 12.12% An investor looking for a high dividend from the investment should purchase stock of ABC Corp. because it has the higher dividend yield. 34. Calculate WFU Corporation s dividend yield for 2015 and Round percentages to two decimal places. If an investor is looking for a high dividend for his investment, does the corporation s stock seem more or less attractive in 2015 or 2016? Total dividends paid $102,900 $100,200 Preferred stock dividends 35,850 34,100 Number of common shares outstanding 20,100 20,850 Market price per share of common stock Dividends per share of common stock ($102,900 $35,850)/20,100 shares ($100,200 $34,100)/20,850 shares Dividend yield 10.70% 10.24% If an investor is looking for a high dividend, the corporation will look like a better investment in 2016 because it produces a higher dividend yield. Strategy: First, determine the dividends allocable to the common stock and dividends per share of common stock. Calculate the dividend yield by dividing the dividends per share of common stock by the market price per share of common stock. The yield is the percentage return the investor will receive for the investment. A higher dividend yield suggests a higher return of dividends per dollar invested.
