6. Steps in the Creation of a Corporation


6.1. Promotion involves the process of bringing together the incorporators or the persons interested in the
business, procuring subscriptions or capital that leads to the incorporation of the corporation.
Underwriters - investment banking or stockbrokers often facilitate the promotion and subsequent sale of
shares to prospective investors.
6.2. Incorporation involves filing the articles of corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
together with treasurer’s affidavit, statement of financial position, certificate of bank deposit, and certificate as
to the name of the corporation; payment of filing and publication fees; and ultimately the issuance by the SEC
of the certificate of incorporation.
Note: Generally, the corporation does not acquire its juridical personality until the SEC issues to it its
certificate of incorporation.
6.3. Formal organization and commencement requires the adoption of by-laws and the election of the board of
directors (BOD) and of administrative officers including taking such other steps to enable it to transact the
legitimate business or accomplish the purpose for which it was created.
Note: If a corporation does not formally organize and commence the transaction of its business within five
(5) years from the date of its incorporation, its corporate powers shall cease and the corporation shall be deemed dissolved.
However, if a corporation has commenced business but subsequently becomes continuously inoperative
for a period of at least five (5) years, the same shall be a ground for the suspension or revocation of its certificate of
incorporation.

14. Classes of Shares in General


14.1. Par value shares
one in which a specific amount is fixed in the articles of incorporation and appearing on the certificate of
stock. This amount is the minimum issue price of the shares.
Preference/preferred shares may be issued only as par value shares.
14.2. No-par value shares
one without any value appearing on the face of the certificate of stock. A no-par value share may have a
stated value which may be fixed in the articles of incorporation or by the board of directors or the
shareholders.
However, the minimum stated value of a no-par share is five pesos (P5.00) and is deemed to be fully paid
when issued.
Note that the following are not permitted to issue no-par value shares: (BPI-TB)
a. Banks
b. Public utilities
c. Insurance companies
d. Trust Companies; and
e. Building and Loan Associations
f. Pre-need companies

Of Theory and Accounts Page 2 of 11
/ACT1102
15. Par value vis-à-vis Market value of shares
15.1. Par value is a nominal amount indicated on the share certificate and fixed in the articles of incorporation. Most
often than not, it is not the price at which the corporation sells the share though this amount reflects the
minimum issue price of the shares. The selling price of the share or its market value will be usually higher
than a share’s par value and is influenced by a number of factors, such as:
Anticipated future earnings of the company
Expected dividend rate per share
Current financial position
Current state of the economy
Current state of the securities market

16. Minimum Subscription and Paid-In Capital


No more required 25% minimum subscription and paid up capital stock at incorporation.
• But in an increase of authorized capital stock the 25% subscription and 25% paid up requirements are still imposed
Illustration:
If the increase in the authorized share capital is to be P2,000,000, the subscribed share capital must be P500,000 (P2,000,000
authorized share capital X 25%) of which P125,000 (P500,000 subscribed X 25%) must be paid upon subscription.

17. Shareholder’s Equity


17.1. Share Capital
a. Ordinary Share Capital or Common Stock
b. Preference Share Capital or Preferred Stock
Note: Trust Fund Doctrine mandates that the corporation must maintain its Legal Capital for the protection
of its creditors. It is not available for distribution to shareholders until the claims of corporate creditors are
satisfied.
Legal Capital -is that portion of the contributed capital or the minimum amount of paid-in capital, which
must remain in the corporation for the protection of corporate creditors.
In case of par value shares, legal capital is the aggregate par value of all issued and subscribed shares.
In case of no-par shares, legal capital is the total consideration received by the corporation for the issuance
of its shares including the excess of issue price over the stated value.
17.2. Share Capital Not Yet Fully Paid (Subscribed Share Capital)
the portion of the authorized share capital that has been subscribed but not yet fully paid.
Note: Subscription Receivable is a shareholders’ equity account. It is presented in the statement of
financial position as a deduction from the related subscribed ordinary shares; HOWEVER, when it is collectible within
twelve months from the date of statement of financial position, this is presented as current asset in the current asset
portion of the statement of financial position. Thus, it is ignored in the computation of Shareholder’s equity. (If the problem is
silent Subscription Receivable is assumed to be collectible beyond 1 year.)
17.3. Share Premium or Additional Paid-In Capital
the portion of the paid-in capital representing amounts paid by shareholders in excess of par. It may also
result from transactions involving treasury shares, retirement of shares, donated capital, share dividends and any other “gain”
on the corporation’s own share transactions.
17.4. Other Appropriation Reserves
These include revaluation and other reserves properly appropriated by the corporation. These items will
be discussed in the financial accounting courses.
17.5. Accumulated Profits/Losses or Retained Earnings
represent the component of the shareholders’ equity arising from the retention of assets generated from
profit-oriented activities of the corporation.

18. Accounting for Issuance of Shares


18.1. Measure of Capital When Issued:
a. With Par -credit share capital at par any excess to Share Premium
b. Without Par but with a Stated Value - Share Capital is credited at stated value with the excess
to Share Premium

Measure of the Consideration Received on the Issue of Share Capital


1. For Cash or Receivable -at Face value
2. For Non-Cash Consideration -at Fair Market Value (FMV) of non-cash or FMV of the shares issued
whichever is clearly determinable
3. For Services Rendered -at FMV of the services rendered or market value of the shares issued
whichever is clearly determinable

Fair Value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. (IFRS 13 par. 9)

19. Accounting for Delinquent Subscriptions


19.1. When the subscriber fails to settle the subscriptions in full on the date specified in the subscription contract
or in the call made by the board of directors, the subscribed shares are declared delinquent.

Of Theory and Accounts Page 3 of 11


/ACT1102
19.2. The remedy of the corporation in this case is to dispose of the shares in a public auction for the account of
the delinquent subscriber. These shares will be sold to the highest bidder -the person who is willing to pay
the “offer price” which includes the full amount of the subscription balance plus accrued interest, cost of
advertisement and expenses of auction sale in exchange for the smallest number of shares.

Illustration:
Finest Inc.’s 1,000 shares of P10 par value ordinary shares were sold on subscription at P15 per share on Oct. 17, 2010 to Kanor.
Subscription installments of P7,000 and P8,000 will be due on Nov. 1 and 15, respectively.

Kanor was able to pay the first installment; however, he failed to settle the latter one due to his ensuing financial problems. After
complying with the legal procedures pertaining to delinquency sale, a public auction was held. The offer price is P12,000 including
P500 accrued interest and P3,500 expenses of sale. Three bidders are willing to pay the offer price:

Norina Salvador 900 shares


Bryan Trinidad 600 shares
Rian Soliman 750 shares

Required: Who is the highest bidder?

Ans: Bryan Trinidad is the highest bidder, agreeing to pay the full price of P12,000 for the smallest number of shares. Consequently, the
1,000 shares are deemed fully paid. Kanor, the original subscriber, gets 400 shares and Bryan T. receives the 600 shares.

19.3. If there is no bidder, the corporation may bid for the delinquent shares and the total amount due shall be
credited as paid in full in the books of corporation. These shares shall be considered as treasury shares.

20. Accounting for Treasury Shares


20.1. Treasury shares are shares of stock which have been issued and fully paid for, but subsequently reacquired
by the issuing corporation either by purchase, redemption, donation or through other lawful means. Such
shares may again be disposed of for a reasonable price fixed by the board of directors.
20.2. Treasury share is reported as a deduction from total shareholders’ equity. (contra-equity account)
20.3. The Cost Method is the preferred method of accounting for treasury shares. Under this method, treasury
share is recorded at cost of purchase regardless of whether it is acquired below or above par.
20.4. The purchase of treasury shares does not decrease the number of shares issued; only the outstanding shares
decrease. Thus:
Authorized Shares - Unissued Shares = Issued Shares

Issued Shares = Outstanding Shares (without the presence of treasury)

Issued Shares = Outstanding Shares + Treasury Shares (with Treasury shares)

20.5. Therefore, unless retired, treasury shares remain to be considered issued.


20.6. Treasury share is always debited for the cost of the shares purchased or credited for the cost of the shares
reissued. Par value is ignored. If the reissue price exceeds the cost of the treasury, the excess over cost is
not regarded a “gain” but component of share premium (Share Premium-Treasury).
20.7. On the other hand, if the cost exceeds the reissue price, the difference should be debited to share premium
-treasury to the extent of its balance. In the absence of any balance in this account, or if it has already been depleted, the “loss” is
debited to retained earnings.
20.8. Observe that Retained Earnings account may be debited, but is never credited for treasury share transactions.
20.9. Retirement of treasury shares.
Cancel the carrying value of the share and the cost of treasury. The carrying value includes the Par and
the Share Premium at the time the shares were originally issued.
The ordinary shares account and the share premium attaching to it when it was originally issued are
debited and the corresponding credit is the treasury share at cost. Any positive excess (excess debits over credits) is credited to
share premium account (Share Premium -Retirement). Any negative excess (excess credits over debits) is debited to Retained
Earnings.

21. Accounting for Donated Capital


21.1. Contributions from shareholders are measured and recorded at Fair Market Value of the items received with
the credit going to a share premium account. If significant, separate share premium account may be set up
designated as Donated Capital.
21.2. If the donation is in the form of shares of the corporation, the receipt of the donated shares is recorded by
means of memorandum entry only. The account share premium or donated capital is credited at the time the
shares are to be reissued.

22. Book value per share


22.1. Book value per share represents the equity a shareholder has in the net assets of the corporation from owning
one share.
22.2. Book value per share formula:

Book value per share = Total Shareholder’s Equity ÷ No. of shares outstanding

23. Retained Earnings


23.1. The account Retained Earnings represents the firm’s accumulated profit or loss, including prior-period
adjustments less the dividends declared and other amounts transferred to the contributed capital accounts.
23.2. A debit balance in retained earnings account is referred to as a deficit.

Of Theory and Accounts Page 4 of 11


/ACT1102
23.3. Among the common transactions affecting retained earnings are summarized below in the form of increases
(credits) and decreases (debits) to the account.

RETAINED EARNINGS
Current Loss Current Profit
Dividends Adjustments for
Treasury Share Correction of prior
Transactions period errors (PAS 8)
Share Capital
Retirement
Adjustments for
Correction of prior
period errors (PAS 8)

23.4. The list is not exhaustive because the other items affecting retained earnings account will be dealt with in a
Financial Accounting course.
23.5. Appropriation of retained earnings - Retained earnings may be appropriated for legal and business reasons.
The account “Retained earnings - appropriated” shall be credited and debited from “Retained earnings -
unappropriated” account, with the total retained earnings account unaffected.
Business reason (voluntary) - a corporation may appropriate portion of retained earnings for valid business
reasons such as expansion or significant capital expenditures.
Business reason (contractual) - Long term debt contracts may restrict retained earnings as condition for
loan.
Legal reason - a corporation shall appropriate portion of its retained earnings equal to the cost of the
treasury shares it has reacquired.

24. Current Profit or Loss


24.1. At the end of each accounting period, closing entries are made to separate the effects of transactions of the
currents period with the ensuing period. The final closing entry in a corporation’s books transfers the profit
(credit balance in Profit or Loss Summary account) or loss (debit balance in Profit or Loss Summary account)
to the Retained Earnings Account.

25. Dividends
25.1. A dividend is a distribution of corporate income to the shareholders on a pro rata basis. They are distributed
out of accumulated earnings of the corporation, except for a liquidating dividend which represents a return
of the shareholder’s investment.
25.2. Dividends may take the form of cash, noncash assets (property dividends), scrip or liability dividends, or
share dividends (corporation’s own share capital or bonus issue).
25.3. The important dates concerning dividends are:
a. Date of Declaration. The date when the BOD formally approves and announces the dividend. This is date
that the reduction in retained earnings is recognized or recorded in the accounts.
b. Date of Record. A list of current shareholders who will be entitled to the dividend is prepared and the
dividend payment is based on this list. No journal entry is made on this date.
c. Date of Payment/Distribution. On this date, an entry is made to record the settlement of the dividend
either by payment of cash or distribution of noncash assets or the company’s own shares.
25.4. Cash Dividends -this is the most common type of dividend. For a cash dividend to occur, a corporation must
have retained earnings and adequate cash to pay the dividend. It may be expressed as a percentage of the
par value or as a peso amount per share. On the date of declaration, a current liability is recognized in the
accounts with a corresponding charge (debit) to retained earnings or dividends account. If the latter account
is used, it is closed to retained earnings account at the end of the accounting period.
25.5. Property Dividends -dividend that is payable in assets rather than cash. Property dividend may also be in
the form of equity or debt securities held in other companies. Distribution of Treasury shares as dividends is
also considered as a property dividend and not as a share dividend.
25.6. Share Dividends (Bonus Issue) -is a pro rata distribution of a corporation’s own shares to its shareholders.
Unlike cash and property dividends, a bonus issue does not affect total assets and total shareholder’s equity
because it simply represents a transfer of capital from retained earnings to contributed capital.
a. Small Share Dividend -when the number of shares represents LESS THAN 20% of the shares
previously outstanding, the basis of the measurement would be the current market value of the additional shares to
be issued.
b. Large Share Dividend -when the proportion of the additional shares issued is 20% OR MORE, the
amount capitalized is equal to the par or stated value of the share capital.
25.7. Scrip Dividends -this arises if a corporation has adequate retained earnings to meet the legal dividend
requirements but has insufficient funds to justify a current cash dividend.
The corporation then, declares a scrip dividend where it issues promissory notes -called scrip -requiring
the corporation to pay dividends at some future date. Scrip dividends usually carry interest, and the
interest that accrues on scrip dividends are recorded as interest expense.

26. Share splits


26.1. A share split involves the issue of additional shares according to the percentage ownership of shareholders
This results in a reduction in the stated value per share
e.g., a 2-for-1 split means that one share with a value of P10 will be exchanged for 2 shares each with a
value of P5.
26.2. A share split does not effect the total equity of the company

Of Theory and Accounts Page 5 of 11


/ACT1102
26.3. The purpose of a share split is to increase the marketability of the shares by lowering the market price per
share.
26.4. A share split does not affect the balance in shareholders’ equity accounts and therefore a formal journal entry
is not required.

27. Allocation of Cash Dividends Between Preference Shares and Ordinary Shares
27.1. Preference shares have priority over ordinary shares in terms of dividends.
27.2. The amount of dividend payment to preference shares depends on the type and preferential rights attached
to the share, which could be cumulative or non cumulative and participating or non-participating.
a. A cumulative preference share has a right to receive current dividends in arrears before ordinary
shareholders receive any dividends.
b. A participating preference share provides for additional dividends to be paid to its holder after
dividends of a specified amount or rate are paid to ordinary shareholders.
27.3. If the problem is silent, the preference shares are assumed to be noncumulative and nonparticipating.
27.4. Dividends for the current year are called current dividends, while dividends that were not declared in the
previous years are called dividends in arrears. Dividends not declared on the previous years are usually
considered forfeited unless the preference shares are cumulative in nature. Dividends in arrears must be
specifically disclosed, otherwise, no dividends in arrears shall be assumed.
27.5. In case there are two or more classes of participating preference shares with different rates, the LOWER rate
shall be the basis of allocation to the ordinary shares. If only one of them is participating, then that rate shall
be used regardless whether the other preference share but nonparticipating shall have a lower rate.

28. Correction of Prior Period Errors


28.1. Prior period errors are omissions from, and misstatements in, the entity’s financial statements for one or
more periods arising from failure to use, or misuse of, reliable information that was available when financial
statements for those periods were authorized for issue and could reasonably be expected to have been
obtained and taken into account in the preparation of those financial statements.
28.2. Such errors encompass effects of mathematical mistakes, mistakes in applying accounting policies, oversights
or misinterpretation of facts, and fraud.
28.3. They may result to either a net understatement or net overstatement of the balance in the retained earnings
account. The adjustment that should be taken up in the retained earnings is net of the related income tax.
