Problem 10
YPILAN Investment Company has the following transactions in the common stock of
CHERRY MAE Chemicals Corporation:
On January 7, 2000, YPILAN purchased 2005 shares of P100 par value common
stock at P110 per share.
The accountant felt that the cash paid for the new shares was merely an
assessment since their proportionate share in CHERRY MAE Chemicals was not
changed. He credited all dividends (5% in December of each year) to the
Investment Account until the debit was fully offset.
In December, 2005, YPILAN received a 50% stock dividend from CHERRY MAE
Chemicals. The accountant did not make any entry for this dividend because
the company president expected to sell the shares received. They did sell the
dividend share in January, 2006 for P160 per share. Income was credited for
the proceeds.
In December, 2006, the stocks were split on a two-for-one basis and the new
shares were issued at no-par value. YPILAN found that each new share was
worth P5.00 more than the P110 per share which they had paid for their original
shares so it was decided to debit the Investment account with the additional
shares received at P110 per share and to credit income for it.
In June, 2007, YPILAN sold one-half of then CHERRY MAE Chemicals holdings at
P100 per share. The proceeds was credited to the Investment account.
