1. Remember that the numbers from the T accounts will used to prepare the statement of stockholders' equity and the balance sheet. As you post the journal entries it is important to work carefully. Check your work to insure that you have posted the correct numbers to the appropriate side of the T account. Also, make sure that your account totals are correct.
2. The purchase of treasury stock is typically recorded using the cost method. When the company resells shares of treasury stock pay attention to the price these shares are being sold for and the price originally paid to reacquire these shares. On the date of declaration of a cash dividend, the corporation is legally obligated to pay that dividend. When the company declares a cash or stock dividend keep in mind the previous stock transactions that have occurred; would these transactions have any affect on the amount of the cash dividend?
3. Review the example of the statement of stockholders' equity in the chapter. Pay particular attention to the treatment of dividends, and the purchase and sale of treasury stock. Recall that the statement of stockholders' equity shows the beginning balances of common stock and retained earnings. The common stock balance will be increased by any stock issued during the period and retained earnings will be increased by any net income, and decreased by any net losses and dividends.
4. A stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet is made up of separately reported paid-in capital, retained earnings, and treasury stock. Recall that paid-in capital includes separate reporting of each class of stock. Treasury stock held by a corporation reduces stockholders' equity.
