Question

I am just wanted more information on the 1000 other expsense. Is it tied to a particular item on the B/S? 250 common stock shares x $10 would need another 1k but the 1k is operating not financing? Please elaborate on this. Thanks

Dividends declared and paid totaled $700.

On January 1, 2013, convertible preferred stock that had originally been issued at par value were converted into 500 shares of common stock. The book value method was used to account for the conversion.

Long-term nonmarketable investments that cost $1,600 were sold for $2,300.

The long-term note payable was paid by issuing 250 shares of common stock at the beginning of the year.

Equipment with a cost of $2,000 and a book value of $300 was sold for $100. The company uses one Accumulated Depreciation account for all depreciable assets.

Equipment was purchased at a cost of $16,200.

The 12% bonds payable were issued on August 31, 2013, at 97. They mature on August 31, 2023. The company uses the straight-line method to amortize the discount.

Taxable income was less than pretax accounting income, resulting in a $396 increase in deferred taxes payable.

Short-term marketable securities were purchased at a cost of $1,300. The portfolio was increased by $300 to a $3,800 fair value at year-end by adjusting the related allowance account.

Explanation / Answer

$1,000 is an operating expense of the business, it is not related to any Balance Sheet item.

As this is an operating expense, will be classified as operting activity and not a financing activity.

For financing activity, dividend paid will be classified which is $700.

You can find this amount in the net changes of Retained Earning which is calculated as follows:

Opening Rentained Earning + Profit for the year - Dividend Paid = Closing Retained Earnings

= $10,000 + $4,800 - $700 = $14,100

The point about share capital is not related to any way with $1,000 of other operating expenses. It is a normal business expenditure.
