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) 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. 3. (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. Solutions Manual 13-5 Chapter 13
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. Solutions Manual 13-6 Chapter 13
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. Solutions Manual 13-7 Chapter 13
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. Solutions Manual 13-8 Chapter 13
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. 21. The answers are summarized in the table below: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Account Common Shares Retained Earnings Contributed Capital Reacquired Shares Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Preferred Shares Classification Share capital common shares Retained earnings Additional contributed capital Accumulated other comprehensive income Share capital preferred shares Solutions Manual 13-9 Chapter 13
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. Solutions Manual 13-10 Chapter 13

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. Solutions Manual 13-11 Chapter 13

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.

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.
