The stockholders’ equity section of Stellar Inc. at the beginning of the current year appears below.

Common stock, $10 par value, authorized 1,043,000 shares, 321,000 shares issued and outstanding$3,210,000Paid-in capital in excess of par—common stock562,000Retained earnings624,000

During the current year, the following transactions occurred:

1) The company issued to the stockholders 109,000 rights. Ten rights are needed to buy one share of stock at $30. The rights were void after 30 days. The market price of the stock at this time was $32 per share.

2) The company sold to the public a $204,000, 10% bond issue at 104. The company also issued with each $100 bond one detachable stock purchase warrant, which provided for the purchase of common stock at $28 per share. Shortly after issuance, similar bonds without warrants were selling at 96 and the warrants at $8.

3) All but 5,450 of the rights issued in (1) were exercised in 30 days.

4) At the end of the year, 80% of the warrants in (2) had been exercised, and the remaining were outstanding and in good standing.

5) During the current year, the company granted stock options for 10,800 shares of common stock to company executives. The company, using a fair value option-pricing model, determines that each option is worth $10. The option price is $28. The options were to expire at year-end and were considered compensation for the current year.

6) All but 1,080 shares related to the stock-option plan were exercised by year-end. The expiration resulted because one of the executives failed to fulfill an obligation related to the employment contract.

Prepare the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet at the end of the current year. Assume that retained earnings at the end of the current year is $771,000.

Cost of goods sold 1,228,786
Gross margin 470,414

Hi-Tek produced and sold 60,000 units of B300 at a price of $20 per unit and 12,800 units of T500 at a price of $39 per unit. The company’s traditional cost system allocates manufacturing overhead to products using a plantwide overhead rate and direct labor dollars as the allocation base. Additional information relating to the company’s two product lines is shown below:

B300 T500 Total
Direct materials $ 400,400 $ 162,200 $ 562,600
Direct labor $ 120,000 $ 42,600 162,600
Manufacturing overhead 503,586
Cost of goods sold $ 1,228,786

The company has created an activity-based costing system to evaluate the profitability of its products. Hi-Tek’s ABC implementation team concluded that $52,000 and $109,000 of the company’s advertising expenses could be directly traced to B300 and T500, respectively. The remainder of the selling and administrative expenses was organization-sustaining in nature. The ABC team also distributed the company’s manufacturing overhead to four activities as shown below:
