Ex. 15-152Treasury shares.

For numerous reasons, a corporation may reacquire shares of its own shares. When a company
purchases treasury shares, it usually accounts for the shares using the cost method.
Instructions
Explain how a company would account for each of the following:
1. Purchase of shares at a price less than par value.
2. Subsequent resale of treasury shares at a price less than purchase price, but more than par
value.
3. Subsequent resale of treasury shares at a price greater than both purchase price and par
value.
4. Effect on net income.
Solution 15-152
1. Treasury Shares is debited for the purchase price of the shares even though the purchase
price is less than par value.
2. Treasury Shares is credited for the original cost (purchase price) of the shares, and the
excess of the original cost (purchase price) over the sales price first is debited to Share
PremiumTreasury from earlier sales of treasury shares and any remainder then is debited
to Retained Earnings.
3. Treasury shares is credited for the original cost (purchase price) of the shares, and the
excess of the sales price over the original cost (purchase price) is credited to Share Premium
Treasury.
4. There is no effect on net income as a result of treasury share transactions.

Ex. 15-157Share dividends.

Describe the journal entry for a share dividend on ordinary shares (which has a par value).
Solution 15-157
A share dividend results in the transfer from retained earnings to contributed capital of an amount
equal to the fair value of each share, if the dividend is less than 20-25%, or par value of each
share, if the dividend is greater than 20-25%. Retained Earnings is debited for the total amount
transferred, Ordinary Share Dividend Distributable is credited for the total par value of the shares,
and, for a small share dividend, the excess of fair value over par value is credited to Share
PremiumOrdinary.

Short Answer
1. Briefly describe some of the similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS with
respect to the accounting for stockholders equity.
1. Key similarities between IFRS and U.S. GAAP for transactions related to stockholders
equity pertain to (1) issuance of shares, (2) purchase of treasury shares, (3) declaration and
payment of dividends, (4) the accounting for start up coststhat is, they should be expensed
as incurred, (5) the costs associated with issuing shares reduce the proceeds from the
issuance and reduce contributed capital, and (6) the accounting for par, no par and no par
shares with a stated value.
Major differences relate to terminology used, introduction of items such as revaluation

surplus, and presentation of equity information. In addition, the accounting for treasury share
retirements differs between IFRS and U.S. GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP a company has the
option of charging the excess of the cost of treasury shares over par value to (1) retained
earnings, (2) allocate the difference between contributed capital and retained earnings, or (3)
charge the entire amount to contributed capital. Under IFRS, the excess may have to be
charged to contributed capital, depending on the original transaction related to the issuance of
the stock. An IFRS/U.S. GAAP difference relates to the account Revaluation Surplus.
Revaluation surplus arises under IFRS because companies are permitted to revalue their
property, plant and equipment to fair value under certain circumstances. This account is part
of general reserves under IFRS and is not considered contributed capital. While both IFRS
and U.S. GAAP consider the statement of stockholders equity a primary financial statement,
under IFRS, a company has the option of preparing a statement of stockholders equity similar
to U.S. GAAP or preparing a statement of recognized income and expense (SoRIE). The
statement of SoRIE reports the items that were charged directly to equity such as revaluation
surplus and then adds the net income for the period to arrive at total recognized income and
expense. In this situation, additional note disclosure is required to provide reconciliations of
other equity items.
2. Briefly discuss the implications of the financial statement presentation project for the reporting
of stockholders equity.
2. It is likely that the statement of stockholders equity and its presentation will be examined
closely in the financial statement presentation project. The statement of recognized income
and expense now permitted under IFRS will probably be eliminated. In addition the options of
how to present other comprehensive income under U.S. GAAP will change in any converged
standard in this area. Also, the FASB has been working on a standard that will likely converge
to IFRS in the area of hybrid financial instruments.
