Maria Martinez organized Manhattan Transport Company in January 2015. The corporation

immediately issued at $8 per share one-half of its 200,000 authorized shares of $2 par value common

stock. On January 2, 2016, the corporation sold at par value the entire 5,000 authorized shares

of 8 percent, $100 par value cumulative preferred stock. On January 2, 2017, the company again

needed capital and issued 5,000 shares of an authorized 10,000 shares of no-par cumulative preferred

stock for a total of $512,000. The no-par shares have a stated dividend of $9 per share.

The company declared no dividends in 2015 and 2016. At the end of 2016, its retained earnings

were $170,000. During 2017 and 2018 combined, the company earned a total of $890,000. Dividends

of 50 cents per share in 2017 and $1.60 per share in 2018 were paid on the common stock.

Instructions

a. Prepare the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet at December 31, 2018. Include a

supporting schedule showing your computation of retained earnings at the balance sheet date.

(Hint: Income increases retained earnings, whereas dividends decrease retained earnings.)

b. Assume that on January 2, 2016, the corporation could have borrowed $500,000 at 8 percent

interest on a long-term basis instead of issuing the 5,000 shares of the $100 par value cumulative

preferred stock. Identify two reasons a corporation may choose to issue cumulative preferred

stock rather than finance operations with long-term debt

At year-end 2015, Wallace Landscaping’s total assets were $1.7 million and its accounts payable were $370,000. Sales, which in 2015 were $2.8 million, are expected to increase by 30% in 2016. Total assets and accounts payable are proportional to sales, and that relationship will be maintained. Wallace typically uses no current liabilities other than accounts payable. Common stock amounted to $395,000 in 2015, and retained earnings were $330,000. Wallace has arranged to sell $160,000 of new common stock in 2016 to meet some of its financing needs. The remainder of its financing needs will be met by issuing new long-term debt at the end of 2016. (Because the debt is added at the end of the year, there will be no additional interest expense due to the new debt.) Its net profit margin on sales is 6%, and 60% of earnings will be paid out as dividends. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below.
