SHAREHOLDER’S EQUITY

Prepared by: John Glenn Reoja, CPA

Definition & Components of SHE
1. Presentation of Subscription Receivable
General rule if silent as to maturity:
Subscription receivable is presented as a
deduction from contributed capital
(Specifically subscribed share capital).
Exception: If the maturity date of the
receivable is within 12 months, it is presented
as a current asset rather than deduction from
contributed capital.
Definition & Components of SHE
2. Share Premium is not just the portion of the paid in
capital representing the excess over the par or stated
value.
Broadly, the common sources of share premium are:

• Excess over par value or stated value


• Capital gains (from treasury share transactions,
retirement, conversion and etc.)
• Distribution of stock dividend – market value of
share is more than par or stated value
Definition & Components of SHE
2. Share Premium is not just the portion of the paid in
capital representing the excess over the par or stated
value.
Broadly, the common sources of share premium are:

• Ordinary share warrants outstanding and bond


conversion privilege and Ordinary share options
outstanding
• Donated capital
• Quasi-reorganization and recapitalization
• Forfeited subscription
Definition & Components of SHE
3. Accumulated other comprehensive income and losses are
presented separately as a line item for each type of OCI or
OCL. They are as follow:
a. Unrealized gain or loss from a derivative instrument
designated as cash flow hedge.
b. Unrealized gain or loss from translation of foreign
currency financial statements.
c. Unrealized gain or loss from change in fair value of debt
and equity instrument measured at FVOCI
d. Revaluation surplus
e. Remeasurement of employee benefits
f. Unrealized gain or loss from change in fair value of
financial liability due to credit risk

Definition & Components of SHE
5. Par value and no par value shares
• A par value share is one with specific value fixed in
the articles of incorporation and appearing on the
share certificate. The purpose of the par value is to
fix the minimum issue price of the share.
• A no-par value share is one without any value
appearing on the face of the share certificate. But a
no-par share has always an “issued” or stated value
which may be fixed by the articles of incorporation or
board of directors. The minimum stated value of no-
par share is P5.
Definition & Components of SHE
6. Share capital and subscribed share capital
Subscribed share capital is the portion of the
authorized share capital that has been
subscribed but not yet fully paid and
therefore still unissued while share capital is
the portion of the authorized share capital
already issues (i.e already fully paid)
Definition & Components of SHE
7. Legal Capital
Legal capital is legal concept. It is that portion
of the paid in capital arising from the issuance
of share capital which cannot be returned to
the shareholders in any from during the
lifetime of the corporation. Note:
Subscription receivable is ignored in
computing legal capital. The amount of legal
capital is determined as follows:
Definition & Components of SHE
The amount of legal capital is determined as
follows:
Share capital ordinary & preferred xx

Reserves is a grouping required by PAS 1 as a
minimum line item and computed as follows:
Total Share premium xx
Total other comprehensive income or losses xx

Definition & Components of SHE
9. Discount on share capital

This account exists if shares are issued for


consideration less than par or stated value.
The journal entry includes:
Cash xx
Discount on share capital xx
Share capital (@ par value) xx
Issuance, Subscription and Retirement
In journalizing issuance and subscription
transactions, two methods may be used
namely:
1. Memorandum entry method- The most
common method used. In this method, no
entry is made during authorization. During
issuance, one principal account will be used,
namely “Share Capital”.
Issuance, Subscription and Retirement
In journalizing issuance and subscription
transactions, two methods may be used namely:
2. Journal Entry method- In this method, one
principal account and contract- account will be
used. The principal account is the “Authorized
Share Capital” which remains generally constant
all throughout while the contra-account is
“Unissued Share Capital” which decreases every
time there is an issuance of share.

Issuance, Subscription and Retirement
Basically, the main difference of the two
methods is the existence of share capital
account. Share capital account is maintained
account under the memorandum entry
method. On the other hand, share capital
account is a residual account under the
journal entry method (share capital =
authorized share capital – balance of unissued
share capital.)

Shares to be issued
Shares to be issued by a corporation may be
one (1) class or two (2) classes of shares.
• For 1 class of shares, it could be ordinary
shares or preferred shares.
❖ Ordinary shares may be issued with par value
or no par value but with stated value not less
than P5.
❖ Preferred shares should strictly be issued
with par value only.
Shares to be issued
• For 2 classes of shares (ordinary shares &
preferred shares) issued at a lump-sump
consideration, the consideration should be
allocated to the two equity instruments (SPLIT
THE CONSIDERATION). It is allocated by using:
(1) Use Relative fair value approach – fair value
of all class of shares is available.
(2) Residual Approach – NOT ALL fair value of
shares is available. This is also used if the
preference shares is classified as redeemable
preference shares.

Deliquent Subscriptions
If a subscriber of shares does not pay on the date
fixed by board of directors, the subscriptions is
declared deliquent and the deliquent shares will
be sold at a public auction to a HIGHEST
BIDDER.

If for example, the number of delinquent shares


is 10,000 shares and the other offer of the
highest bidder at 6,000 shares and 4,000 shares,
accordingly.
Deliquent Subscriptions
If there is NO HIGHEST BIDDER, the Corporation may
purchase for itself the delinquent shares and will be
part of TREASURY Shares. The purchase must be
backed up by sufficient balance of unrestricted
retained earnings in accordance with trust fund
doctrine.

If such happens , the delinquent subscriber shall be


released from any liability with regard to his or her
subscription but will not share to any number of
deliquent shares unlike if there is a heist bidder.?
Retirement of Shares
Retirement of shares is known as
cancellation of issued shares. In accordance
with the trust fund doctrine, before you
retire shares, there should be an
unrestricted balance of retained earnings
since before you retire shares; you are
effectively reacquiring it first.

Treasury Shares
Treasury shares are an entity’s own shares that
have been issued and then reacquired but not
cancelled. Based from the definition, we can
derive the characteristics of treasury shares and
as follows:
(a) The shares must be the entity’s own shares.
The acquisition of shares of another entity is not
treasury but an investment.
Treasury Shares

(b) The shares must have been issued


originally. This requisite distinguishes
treasury shares from unissued shares.
Treasury shares can be legally reissued at a
discount without any discount liability while
unissued shares must be issued at least at
par or stated value.
Treasury Shares
(C) The shares are reacquired but not
canceled.

Note: No corporation shall redeem,


repurchases or reacquire its own shares of
whatever class unless it has adequate
amount of unrestricted retained earnings to
support the cost of said shares. This is in
accordance with the Trust Fund doctrine.
Accounting for Treasury Shares
(1) On Reacquisition
The measurement of treasury shares is
COST, the value of consideration given up
to acquire the treasury shares. The cost is:
(a) Cash – face
(b) Non-cash – carrying amount
Journal Entry:
Treasury shares (@cost) xx
Cash/ Non-cash asset xx

(2) On reissuance
The main concern on reissuance would
be the gain or loss on reissuance of
treasury shares.

Accounting for Treasury Shares
Cost to be assigned to treasury shares
depends on the method used in
accounting for the movement of
treasury shares. These methods are as
follows:
(1) Specific identification – the problem
stated from what reacquisition date the
treasury shares sold are attributable.
Accounting for Treasury Shares
(2). First in, first out- if the problem is
silent as to method in assigning value,
FIFO shall be used. The treasury shares
sold will be coming from the earliest
acquisition.
Accounting for Treasury Shares
(3) Weighted average – the value of all
treasury shares are equal on the point of
view that the cost to be used will be the
weighted average amount. The weighted
average cost is computed as (TOTAL
AMOUNT OF TREASURY SHARES

other securities of the issuing
corporation. A preference share
may be converted into ordinary
share or bond payable.
Convertible Preference Shares
If the preference shares are
converted into ordinary shares, the
preference shares are retired. Thus,
the step-by-step procedure for
retirement will apply. Then the
ordinary shares will be issued, the

RETAINED EARNINGS
Retained Earnings represent the
cumulative profits and losses which
are retained and not yet
distributed as dividends to the
shareholders.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Total retained earnings may be:
(a) Unappropriated RE – represent that
portion which is free and can be
declared as dividends to stockholders.
(b) Appropriated RE- represent that
portion which is restricted and
therefore not available for any dividend
declaration unless the restriction is
subsequently reversed.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Total retained earnings may be:
(a) Unappropriated RE – represent that
portion which is free and can be
declared as dividends to stockholders.
(b) Appropriated RE- represent that
portion which is restricted and
therefore not available for any dividend
declaration unless the restriction is
subsequently reversed.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Types of Appropriation
1. Legal appropriation – these are
appropriations required by law as in
the case of treasury shares. Retained
earnings must be appropriated to the
extent of the cost of treasury shares.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Types of Appropriation
2. Contractual appropriation- these
are appropriations required by
contract such as appropriation for
bond or preference share
redemption.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Types of Appropriation
3. Voluntary appropriation is a
matter of discretion on the part of
management such as appropriations
for plant expansion or
appropriations for contingencies.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Note: Whether legal, contractual or
voluntary, the intent or purpose of the
appropriation of retained earnings is to
limit the declaration of dividend.
Funding is a different concept from
appropriation. The appropriation of RE
is recorded as follows:
RE – unappropriated xx
RE – appropriated xx
RETAINED EARNINGS
Please be minded that
appropriations of RE do not affect
shareholder’s equity as well as total
retained earnings since both types of
retained earnings comprise total
retained earnings.
RETAINED EARNINGS
Negative Balances in Equity
when the RE account has a debit
balance, it is called a “deficit”. This is
presented as a deduction from total
SHE.
When total SHE has a negative balance,
this is described as “capital deficiency”
RETAINED EARNINGS
Components of RE
The statement of RE shows the changes
directly affecting the RE of an entity
and relates the income statement to the
statement of financial position.
Unfortunately, this statement is NOT
REQUIRED to be a component of
financial statements as per PAS 1.

Dividends
Dividends are distributions of earnings or capital to
shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings. If the entry
has a deficit, it is illegal to pay dividends.

Relative dates in Accounting for Dividends

• Date of Declaration- The date when the board of directors


formally announces the distribution of dividends. This is
the date when the liability for dividend must be recognized
(under IFRIC 17)
Dividends
Under IFRIC 17 “distribution of noncash assets to
owners”, The liability to pay dividend shall be recognized
when the dividend is appropriately authorized and is no
longer at the discretion of the entity which is the date:
a. When the dividend is declared by management or the
BOD if the local jurisdiction does not require further
approval

b. When the declaration of dividend by management or


the board of directors is approved by relevant authority,
for example, the shareholders, if the local jurisdiction
requires such approval.
Dividends
• Date of record – The date on which the stock and
transfer book of the corporation is closed for
registration. Only those who are listed as of this date is
entitled to receive dividends.
• Date of payment or Distribution- The date when the
dividends declared are distributed to the shareholders
who are entitled to the dividends.

Note: Generally, only the date of declaration and date of


payment requires journal entries. There is no journal
entry involve on the date of record.

Reminder: Only outstanding shares are entitled
to dividends. Outstanding share are issued
shares plus subscribed shares-treasury share.

Issued shares can be derived from share capital


while subscribed shares can be derived from
subscribed share capital.
Dividends
Types of Dividends
(a) Cash dividends- it is the most common form
of dividends. It can be declared as a certain
amount per share or a certain percentage of
the par value of shares
(b) Property dividends – A.K.A dividends in kind.
These are dividends in the form of non-cash
assets (e.g inventory, investment in shares of
another entity)
Dividends
The accounting for property dividend is covered
by IFRIC 17, promulgated by the International
Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee.

The accounting for this type of dividend has two


accounting issues, namely:
(1) Accounting for property dividends payable
(Liability)
(2) Accounting for noncash asset to be
distributed as property dividend (Asset)
Dividends
RELEVANT DATES PROPERTY DIVIDENDS Asset to Be Distributed

Note: PDP is measured always at Note: NCAHFS is measured at
FV lower of CA or FV-CTS. If the
latter is lower than the former,
the difference is treated as
impairment loss

Note: If there is a choice between cash and
property dividends, amount charged to RE must
be probability weighted.

Shared dividends – A.K.A bonus issue. Stock


dividend is distribution of the earnings of the
entity in the form the entity’s own shares. Thus,
declaration of this type of dividend in effect
results to capitalization of RE.
Dividends
NOTE: Dividend payable in
stock or stock dividend payable
is not a liability but an addition
to the share capital in the SHE.
Dividends
Share dividends are accounted for as:
a. Unissued shares- if the stock dividend is
20% or more or large stock dividend, the par
or stated value is capitalized or debited to
RE. If the stock dividend is less than 20% or
small stock dividend , the fair value of the
share on the date of declaration is
capitalized.
Dividends
However, if the fair value is lower than
the par or stated value, the par or stated
value is capitalized. If the fair value is
higher than par or stated value, the
difference is credited to share premium
from stock dividend.
Dividends
b. Treasury shares – the accounting for
small or large share dividends DO NOT
APPLY. The cost method is used by
debiting RE for the cost of treasury
shares declared. No share premium
arises.
Dividends
c. Fractional shares- sometimes, issuance of
full shares cannot be done due to fractional
shares. To address this, a corporation may
(1) issue fractional share rights and give the
shareholders enough time to accumulate
share warrants for a full share or
(2) pay cash in lieu of fractional share rights
but this is only allowed if dividends are
declared out of earnings.
Dividends
Scrip or Liability dividends - A.K.A
deferred cash dividends. This are
measured at face or present value of the
dividend. If scrip dividends bear interest,
the interest portion of the cash payment
should be debited to Interest expense
and should not be treated as dividends.
Dividends
Liquidating Dividends - a distribution or
return of capital to shareholders. This
type of dividend can legally be paid
under the following circumstances
(1) When the entity is undertaking a
complete dissolution and liquidation
(2) When the entity is engaged in the
exploitation of natural resources.

Preference Shares
Preference shares can be:
• Preference over assets- preference shares are
settled first upon corporate liquidation and
after the creditor’s claims. Any remaining
amount is paid to the ordinary shareholders.
If the preference shares are not preferred as to
assets, the remaining amount after settlement
of liability is shared proportionately by
preference and ordinary shareholders.
Preference Shares
Preference shares can be:
• Preference over dividends- when dividends may be
➢ A non-cumulative preference share is one on
which the right to receive dividends is forfeited in
any one year in which dividends are not declared.
➢ A cumulative preference share is one on which
any undeclared dividends accumulate each year
until paid. Accordingly, the cumulative
preference share is entitled to dividends in
arrears.
Preference Shares
Preference shares can be:
➢ A non-participating preference share is one
that is entitled to receive only the dividends
equal to the fixed preference rate
Preference Shares
Preference shares can be:
➢ A participating preference share is one
which is entitled to received the dividends in
excess of the basic or fixed dividend rate.
Participating preference share may be fully
participating with ordinary share on a pro-
rata basis or participating only to a certain
amount or percentage.
Preference Shares
Preference shares can be:
➢ However, before the preference share
can participate, the ordinary share
should receive first an amount equal to
the basic preference rate, meaning
preference rate times the par value of
the ordinary share outstanding.
Preference Shares
Notes:
(1) In the absence of specific designation,
preference share is assumed to be
noncumulative and non-participating.
(2) If there are 2 or more classes of
participating preference shares, use the
lowest participation rate to determine the
basic dividend the ordinary share should
receive first.

RECAPITALIZATION
Recapitalization refers to the change in the
capital structure of an entity brought about
by the cancellation of old shares and
issuance of new shares as replacement. After
recapitalization, TOTAL SHE remains the
same.
RECAPITALIZATION
Recapitalization is accomplished through
any of the following:
(1)Change from par to no par and vice-
versa
(2)Reduction of par or stated value
(3)Share splits or reverse splits
RECAPITALIZATION
Note: Journal entry is involved for (1) and (2) it is
accounted for as if retirement of old shares and
issuance of new shares. On the other hand, (3) is
accounted for by issuing a memorandum entry.
Split up increase the number of shares but
decreasing the shares’s par value while split down
decreases the number of shares but increasing
the par value of the shares.

QUASI-REORGANIZATION
A quasi-reorganization is a permissive
but not a mandatory procedure under
which a financially troubled entity
restates its accounts and establishes a
“fresh start” in accounting sense. Thus,
the main goal of procedure is to eliminate
the deficit in retained earnings.
QUASI-REORGANIZATION
Quasi-reorganization is effected
through:
(1) Revaluation of property, plant and
equipment
(2) Recapitalization
QUASI-REORGANIZATION
The accounting steps and procedures for
quasi-reorganization are as follows:
(1) Assets and liabilities are revalued
upwards or downwards.
(2) Any resulting credit balance in
revaluation surplus is to be used to wipe
out the deficit.
QUASI-REORGANIZATION
The accounting steps and procedures for
quasi-reorganization are as follows:
(3) If recapitalization is made, any
resulting share premium shall also be
used to wipe out the deficit.
QUASI-REORGANIZATION
SEC REQUIREMENTS FOR QUASI-
REORGANIZATION
1. If the quasi-reorganization is the result
of revaluation of PPE, the revaluation
must be made by an independent expert
or specialist.

shall restricted to the extent of the deficit
wiped out during the reorganization and
cannot be declared as dividend.
