1) The preferred stock account reflects total par value for all preferred shares issued.
2) Outstanding shares are the number of shares issued less the number of shares held as treasury stock.
3) Total proceeds received from preferred stock issuance are reported in two accounts: a) the par value is in the preferred stock account, b) the excess (price received - par value) is in the related additional paid-in capital account.
4) The common stock account reflects total par value for all shares issued.
5) Total proceeds received from common stock issuance are reported in two accounts: a) the par value is in the common stock account, b) the excess (price received - par value) is in the related additional paid-in capital account.
6) The total cost of treasury stock is reported in the treasury stock account.
7) Consider all the components of stockholders' equity and remember that some may be treated as a deduction rather then an addition.
