C19 – Hanson Corporation
Problem/Solution
Hanson Corporation is a publicly traded company with both preferred stock and
common stock issued and outstanding.
1.
Hanson is considering repurchasing some of its common stock.
This will affect
the number of shares:
Outstanding
2.
Hanson’s preferred stockholders have the right to exchange their preferred stock
for common stock, so Hanson’s preferred stock is: Convertible
3.
Hanson’s preferred stockholders have the right to be paid any dividends in
arrears before the common stockholder are paid a dividend, so Hanson’s
preferred stock is: Cumulative
4.
Hanson is considering distributing a dividend to common shareholders that
exceeds the amount in retained earnings.
This is known as a: Liquidating
dividend
5.
When a portion of retained earnings is restricted from being distributed as a
dividend, it is considered:
Appropriated

C19 – Hanson Corporation
Problem/Solution
Rationale
:
1.
Repurchasing stock affects the number of shares outstanding; however, it does
not affect shares issued or shares authorized.
Shares outstanding equals shares
issued less treasury shares.
2.
The right to exchange preferred shares for common shares makes the preferred
stock convertible.
Participating preferred stock refers to the sharing with
common shareholders in dividend distribution beyond a specified level while
cumulative preferred stock requires all past dividends be paid before common
stockholders receive any dividends; both are incorrect.
3.
The right to received dividends in arrears before common shareholders can
received dividends makes the preferred stock cumulative.
Participating
preferred stock refers to the sharing with common shareholders in dividend
distribution beyond a specified level while a convertible preferred stock allows
the option of exchanging for common stock; both are not the correct answer.
4.
A dividend that exceeds retained earnings is treated as a return of capital and
known as a liquidating dividend.
A noncash distribution is known as a property
dividend while a distribution of company stock is known as a stock dividend;
both are not the correct answer.
5.
Retained earnings restricted from being paid as dividends are appropriated.
Designated and allocated are both incorrect distracters.

EBV is considering a $6M Series A investment in Newco. EBV proposes to structure the investment
as 5M shares of convertible preferred stock. The founder and employees of Newco have claims on

exit valuation of $250M.
