In September,Year 1,West Corp. made a dividend distribution of one right for each of its 120,000 shares of outstanding common stock. Each right was exercisable for the purchase of 1/100 of a share of West's $50 variable rate preferred stock at an exercise price of $80 per share.On March 20,Year 5,none of the rights had been exercised,and West redeemed them by paying each stockholder $0.10 per right. As a result of this redemption,West's stockholders' equity was reduced by:
a.$36,000
b.$12,000
c.$120
d.$2,400
Explanation
Choice “b” is correct. In Year 1,no dividend was recorded since none of the rights were exercised and no value was assigned. In Year 5,redemption reduced equity by $12,000 [120,000 rights x $.10 per share].
Choice “c” is incorrect. Since each right is exercisable for 1/100 of a share,the total potential shares to be purchased with the rights totals 1,200 shares (120,000 rights @ $.10 per share)。This choice erroneously multiplies the redemption price of $.10 times 1,200 shares.
Choice “d” is incorrect. This choice erroneously divides the 120,000 rights by the $50 par value. This is a meaningless amount.
Choice “a” is incorrect.This choice erroneously multiplies the 1,200 shares by the $30 difference between $50 par and $80 exercise price.This amount would be credited to APIC if the rights were exercised.
