FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING &


REPORTING
(Fundamentals)

TEST BANK
(ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS FOR
SEATWORK OR ASSIGNMENT)

ZEUS VERNON B. MILLAN


Page |2

Dear Fellow Teacher,


The book is designed for a 3-unit course (as suggested by CHED). However, I am aware
that many schools have increased the course credits to 6 units. For those schools, the end-of-
chapter problems in the book may be inadequate. To address this, I am providing this TEST BANK
to be used as additional seatwork or assignment. The problems in this test bank are not included
in the book because that would increase the number of pages, and consequently, the price.
I would like to suggest the following sequence of teaching using the book:
1. Discussion of concepts using the LECTURE AID (PowerPoint presentation);
2. Application of concepts using the end-of-chapter problems in the book labeled as “FOR
CLASSROOM DISCUSSION” – the teacher solves the problems on the board and discusses
the solutions;
3. Seat work or homework using the other end-of-chapter problems in the book – the teacher
gives the students opportunity to apply, on their own, the concepts that have just been taught
to them;
4. Use this TEST BANK as additional seat work or homework (for schools having 6 units for FAR);
5. QUIZ or QUIZZES – I have included two quizzes for some chapters (see ‘quizzes’ files
included in the Teacher’s Manual); and
6. Periodic EXAMS (see ‘exam’ files included in the Teacher’s Manual).

I wish you well in your teaching journey and I thank you for making me part of it. If later
on you have queries, comments, or suggestions on how I can improve my work, I would be glad if
you inform me. Here are my contact details: zeusvernonmillan@gmail.com and (0917) 870 6962.

Sincerely,

Zeus Vernon B. Millan

4. D - The transaction is a purchase of interest, a personal transaction between Slade and Norton. The

P a g e | 128

ANSWER:

(1) The preferred stock is noncumulative and nonparticipating.


Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4
Total dividends declared 7,000 9,000 28,000 48,000
Allocation:
① Allocation to preference shares (1K sh. x ₱100 x 8%) 7,000* 8,000 8,000 8,000
② Excess allocated to ordinary shares - 1,000 20,000 40,000
As allocated - - - -

* The amount of dividends declared of ₱7,000 is less than the basic dividend of PS of ₱8,000 (1K sh. x ₱100 x
8%); thus, only the PS are paid.

(2) The preferred stock is cumulative and nonparticipating.

Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4


Total dividends declared 7,000 9,000 28,000 48,000
Allocation:
① Allocation to preference shares (1K sh. x ₱100 x 8%) 7,000** 9,000** 8,000 8,000
② Excess allocated to ordinary shares - - 20,000 40,000
As allocated - - - -

** Since the PS are cumulative, the ₱1,000 deficiency in Yr. 1 is carried over to Yr. 2 [1,000 deficiency in Yr. 1 +
8,000 basic dividend in Yr. 2 = 9,000 dividends to PS in Yr. 2.)
