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.
