RE, beginning (unadjusted) xx Add/Subtract: Prior period adjustment xx RE, beginning (restated) xx Add: net income xx Less dividends: Cash dividends-common xx Cash dividends - preferred xx Stock dividends xx Property dividends xx Less: Adjustment for TS transactions xx Appropriation of RE xx RE, ending xx
Other Comprehensive Income
• “Other Comprehensive Income” includes certain direct equity adjustments that are not part of the current income statement, but which may have an eventual effect on income.
• We already discussed one of these direct equity adjustments when reviewing Available-for-sale Investments. We found that any unrealized gains/losses from revaluation to market are shown in SE (as “other comprehensive income”) rather than on the income statement.
Find the following key numbers for the most current year:
• Net income_________
• Total comprehensive net income________
• Did company grow more wealthy for reasons other than profits? Why or why not?
Stock Option Basics v. Restricted Stock • Granted to employees as part of their compensation.
• Generally not transferable and must either be exercised prior to expiration date or allowed to expire as worthless on expiration day. May have a vesting period.
• When granted, company expenses options for their fair value on grant date [may be a complicated calculation].
• Depending on the type of option granted, the employee may or may not be taxed when granted or exercised.
• Gives employees an incentive to behave in ways that will boost the company's stock price. If the company's stock market price rises above the exercise price stated in the option, the employee could exercise the option, pay the exercise price and would be issued ordinary shares in the company.
