Citation Builders,
Inc., builds office buildings and single-family homes. The office
buildings are constructed under contract with reputable buyers. The
homes are constructed in developments ranging from 10–20 homes and
are typically sold during construction or soon after. To secure the
home upon completion, buyers must pay a deposit of 10% of the price
of the home with the remaining balance due upon completion of the
house and transfer of title. Failure to pay the full amount results
in forfeiture of the down payment. Occasionally, homes remain
unsold for as long as three months after construction. In these
situations, sales price reductions are used to promote the
sale.
During 2018, Citation began construction of an office building for
Altamont Corporation. The total contract price is $25 million.
Costs incurred, estimated costs to complete at year-end, billings,
and cash collections for the life of the contract are as
follows:
| 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | |||||||||
| Costs incurred during the year | $ | 5,000,000 | $ | 11,875,000 | $ | 5,625,000 | |||||

Also during 2018, Citation began a development consisting of 12
identical homes. Citation estimated that each home will sell for
$900,000, but individual sales prices are negotiated with buyers.
Deposits were received for eight of the homes, three of which were
completed during 2018 and paid for in full for $900,000 each by the
buyers. The completed homes cost $675,000 each to construct. The
construction costs incurred during 2018 for the nine uncompleted

ATTENTION I NEED ONLY PART C !!
Part A
In late 2017 the Nicklaus Corporation was formed. The corporate charter authorizes the issuance of 4,000,000 shares of common stock carrying a $1 par value, and 1,000,000 shares of $5 par value, noncumulative, nonparticipating preferred stock. On January 2, 2018, 2,000,000 shares of the common stock are issued in exchange for cash at an average price of $12 per share. Also on January 2, all 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock are issued at $25 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field. Enter your answers in whole dollars.)
2. Prepare the shareholders' equity section of the Nicklaus balance sheet as of March 31, 2018. (Assume net income for the first quarter 2013 was $1,050,000.)
Part B
During 2018, the Nicklaus Corporation participated in three treasury stock transactions:
a. On June 30, 2018, the corporation reacquires 280,000 shares for the treasury at a price of $14 per share.
b. On July 31, 2018, 40,000 treasury shares are reissued at $17 per share.
c. On September 30, 2018, 40,000 treasury shares are reissued at $12 per share.
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record these transactions. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field. Enter your answers in whole dollars.)
2. Prepare the Nicklaus Corporation shareholders' equity section as it would appear in a balance sheet prepared at September 30, 2018. (Assume net income for the second and third quarter was $2,500,000.)
Part C
On October 1, 2019, Nicklaus Corporation receives permission to replace its $1 par value common stock (4,000,000 shares authorized 2,000,000 shares issued, and 1,800,000 shares outstanding) with a new common stock issue having a $.50 par value. Since the new par value is one-half the amount of the old, this represents a 2-for-1 stock split. That is, the shareholders will receive two shares of the $.50 par stock in exchange for each share of the $1 par stock they own. The $1 par stock will be collected and destroyed by the issuing corporation.
On November 1, 2013, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a $0.04 per share cash dividend on common stock and a $0.20 per share cash dividend on preferred stock. Payment is scheduled for December 1, 2018, to shareholders of record on November 15, 2018.
On December 2, 2018, the Nicklaus Corporation declares a 2% stock dividend payable on December 28, 2018, to shareholders of record on December 14. At the date of declaration, the common stock was selling in the open market at $12 per share. The dividend will result in 72,000 (0.03 *3,600,000) additional shares being issued to shareholders.
Required:
1.Prepare journal entries to record the declaration and payment of these stock and cash dividends.
2. Prepare the December 31, 2018, shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet for the Nicklaus Corporation. (Assume net income for the fourth quarter was $2,000,000.) (Enter your answers in whole dollars.)
3.Prepare a statement of shareholders' equity for Nicklaus Corporation for 2018. (Enter your answers in thousands.)

Citation Builders, Inc., builds office buildings and single-family homes. The office buildings are constructed under contract with reputable buyers. The homes are constructed in developments ranging from 10–20 homes and are typically sold during construction or soon after. To secure the home upon completion, buyers must pay a deposit of 10% of the price of the home with the remaining balance due upon completion of the house and transfer of title. Failure to pay the full amount results in forfeiture of the down payment. Occasionally, homes remain unsold for as long as three months after construction. In these situations, sales price reductions are used to promote the sale. During 2018, Citation began construction of an office building for Altamont Corporation. The total contract price is $13 million. Costs incurred, estimated costs to complete at year-end, billings, and cash collections for the life of the contract are as follows: 2018 2019 2020 Costs incurred during the year $ 2,600,000 $ 6,175,000 $ 2,925,000 Estimated costs to complete as of year-end 7,800,000 2,925,000 — Billings during the year 1,300,000 6,500,000 5,200,000 Cash collections during the year 1,170,000 5,030,000 6,800,000 Also during 2018, Citation began a development consisting of 12 identical homes.
