EPS with Contingent Issuance Agreement) Winsor Inc. recently purchased Holiday Corp., a large midwestern home painting corporation. One of the terms of the merger was that if Holiday’s income for 2017 was \(110,000 or more, 10,000 additional shares would be issued to Holiday’s stockholders in 2018. Holiday’s income for 2016 was \)120,000.

Instructions

(a) Would the contingent shares have to be considered in Winsor’s 2016 earnings per share computations?

(b) Assume the same facts, except that the 10,000 shares are contingent on Holiday’s achieving a net income of $130,000 in 2017. Would the contingent shares have to be considered in Winsor’s earnings per share computations for 2016?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Yes, contingent shares will be considered
  2. No, contingent share will not be reflected.

Step by step solution

01

Consideration of Contingent shares

(a) The contingent shares would need to be reflected in diluted earnings per share because the earnings level is as of now being achieved. Actual income of $120,000, exceeds the limit of $110,000.

02

Consideration of Contingent shares

(b) Since the earnings level isn't by and large right now achieved, contingent shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Actual income of $110,000 is less than $130,000.

Most popular questions from this chapter

Tomba Corporation had 300,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, 2017. On May 1, Tomba issued 30,000 shares. (a) Compute the weighted-average number of shares outstanding if the 30,000 shares were issued for cash. (b) Compute the weighted-average number of shares outstanding if the 30,000 shares were issued in a stock dividend.

What is meant by the term antidilution? Give an example.

At December 31, 2017, Reid Company had 600,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, 400,000 of which had been issued and outstanding throughout the year and 200,000 of which were issued on October 1, 2017. Net income for 2017 was \(2,000,000, and dividends declared on preferred stock were \)400,000. Compute Reid’s earnings per common share. (Round to the nearest penny.)

(EPS with Options, Various Situations) Venzuela Company’s net income for 2017 is \(50,000. The only potentially dilutive securities outstanding were 1,000 options issued during 2016, each exercisable for one share at \)6. None has been exercised, and 10,000 shares of common were outstanding during 2017. The average market price of Venzuela’s stock during 2017 was \(20.

Instructions

(a) Compute diluted earnings per share. (Round to nearest cent.)

(b) Assume the same facts as those assumed for part (a), except that the 1,000 options were issued on October 1, 2017 (rather than in 2016). The average market price during the last 3 months of 2017 was \)20.

(Warrants Issued with Bonds and Convertible Bonds) Incurring long-term debt with an arrangement whereby lenders receive an option to buy common stock during all or a portion of the time the debt is outstanding is a frequent corporate financing practice. In some situations, the result is achieved through the issuance of convertible bonds; in others, the debt instruments and the warrants to buy stock are separate.

Instructions

(a) (1) Describe the differences that exist in current accounting for original proceeds of the issuance of convertible bonds and of debt instruments with separate warrants to purchase common stock.

(2) Discuss the underlying rationale for the differences described in (a)(1) above.

(3) Summarize the arguments that have been presented in favor of accounting for convertible bonds in the same manner as accounting for debt with separate warrants.

(b) At the start of the year, Huish Company issued \(18,000,000 of 12% bonds along with detachable warrants to buy 1,200,000 shares of its \)10 par value common stock at \(18 per share. The bonds mature over the next 10 years, starting one year from date of issuance, with annual maturities of \)1,800,000. At the time, Huish had 9,600,000 shares of common stock outstanding. The company received $20,040,000 for the bonds and the warrants. For Huish Company, 12% was a relatively low borrowing rate. If offered alone, at this time, the bonds would have sold in the market at a 22% discount. Prepare the journal entry (or entries) for the issuance of the bonds and warrants for the cash consideration received.
