On January 1, year 8, Crimson Corp., a closely held corporation, issued 5% bonds with a maturity value of $90,000, together with 1,500 shares of its $3 par value common stock, for a combined cash amount of $121,800. The market value of Crimson’s stock is uncertain. If the bonds had been issued separately they would have sold at 102. What amount should Crimson report for additional paid-in capital (or paid-in capital—excess of par) upon issuing the stock?

The amount Crimson should report for additional paid-in capital (or paid-in capital—excess of par) upon issuing the stock is $25,500.

Explanation:

Additional paid-in capital is the excess of market value of common stock over the face value of common stock. Therefore, the amount Crimson should report for additional paid-in capital can be calculated as follows:

Face value of common stock = Number of shares issued * Price per share = $1,500 * $3 = $4,500

Since if the bonds had been issued separately they would have sold at 102, this implies that the market value of the bonds is 102% of the face value of the bond. Therefore, we have:

Bonds market value = Bonds face value * 102% = $90,000 * 102% = $91,800

Market value of common stock = Combined cash amount - Bonds market value = $121,800 - $91,800 = $30,000

Therefore, we have:

Additional paid-in capital = Market value of common stock - Face value of common stock = $30,000 - $4,500 = $25,500

Therefore, the amount Crimson should report for additional paid-in capital (or paid-in capital—excess of par) upon issuing the stock is $25,500.

enjoy the dunce cap fool

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
