(EPS with Stock Dividend and Discontinued Operations) Christina Corporation is preparing the comparative financial statements to be included in the annual report to stockholders. Christina employs a fiscal year ending May 31.

Income from operations before income taxes for Christina was \(1,400,000 and \)660,000, respectively, for fiscal years ended May 31, 2018 and 2017. Christina experienced a loss from discontinued operations of \(400,000 on March 3, 2018. A 40% combined income tax rate pertains to any and all of Christina Corporation’s profits, gains, and losses.

Christina’s capital structure consists of preferred stock and common stock. The company has not issued any convertible securities or warrants and there are no outstanding stock options.

Christina issued 40,000 shares of \)100 par value, 6% cumulative preferred stock in 2014. All of this stock is outstanding, and no preferred dividends are in arrears.

There were 1,000,000 shares of \(1 par common stock outstanding on June 1, 2016. On September 1, 2016, Christina sold an additional 400,000 shares of the common stock at \)17 per share. Christina distributed a 20% stock dividend on the common shares outstanding on December 1, 2017. These were the only common stock transactions during the past 2 fiscal years.

Instructions

(a) Determine the weighted-average number of common shares that would be used in computing earnings per share on the current comparative income statement for:

(1) The year ended May 31, 2017.

(2) The year ended May 31, 2018.

(b) Starting with income from operations before income taxes, prepare a comparative income statement for the years ended May 31, 2018 and 2017. The statement will be part of Christina Corporation’s annual report to stockholders and should include appropriate earnings per share presentation.

(c) The capital structure of a corporation is the result of its past financing decisions. Furthermore, the earnings per share data presented on a corporation’s financial statements is dependent upon the capital structure.

(1) Explain why Christina Corporation is considered to have a simple capital structure.

(2) Describe how earnings per share data would be presented for a corporation that has a complex capital structure.

Cordero Corporation has an employee share-purchase plan which permits all full-time employees to purchase 10 ordinary shares on the third anniversary of their employment and an additional 15 shares on each subsequent anniversary date. The purchase price is set at the market price on the date purchased less a 10% discount. How is this discount accounted for by Cordero?

(Issuance and Conversion of Bonds) For each of the unrelated transactions described below, present the entry(ies) required to record each transaction.

1. Grand Corp. issued \(20,000,000 par value 10% convertible bonds at 99. If the bonds had not been convertible, the company’s investment banker estimates they would have been sold at 95.

2. Hoosier Company issued \)20,000,000 par value 10% bonds at 98. One detachable stock purchase warrant was issued with each \(100 par value bond. At the time of issuance, the warrants were selling for \)4.

3. Suppose Sepracor, Inc. called its convertible debt in 2017. Assume the following related to the transaction. The 11%, \(10,000,000 par value bonds were converted into 1,000,000 shares of \)1 par value common stock on July 1, 2017. On July 1, there was \(55,000 of unamortized discount applicable to the bonds, and the company paid an additional \)75,000 to the bondholders to induce conversion of all the bonds. The company records the conversion using the book value method.

Financial Statement Analysis Case

Ragatz, Inc.

Ragatz, Inc., a drug company, reported the following information. The company prepares its financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

2017 (000)

Current liabilities

\(554,114

Convertible subordinated debts

648,020

Total liabilities

1,228,313

Stockholder’s equity

176,413

Net income

58,333

Analysts attempting to compare Ragatz to drug companies that issue debt with detachable warrants may face a challenge due to differences in accounting for convertible debt.

Instructions

(a) Compute the following ratios for Ragatz, Inc. (Assume that year-end balances approximate annual averages.)

(1) Return on assets.

(2) Return on common stock equity.

(3) Debt to assets ratio.

(b) Briefly discuss the operating performance and financial position of Ragatz. Industry averages for these ratios in 2017 were ROA 3.5%; return on equity 16%; and debt to assets 75%. Based on this analysis, would you make an investment in the company’s 5% convertible bonds? Explain.

(c) Assume you want to compare Ragatz to an IFRS company like Merck (which issues nonconvertible debt with detachable warrants). Assuming that the fair value of the equity component of Ragatz’s convertible bonds is \)150,000, how would you adjust the analysis above to make valid comparisons between Ragatz and Merck?
