Question

Sarasota Limited has two classes of shares outstanding: preferred ($5 dividend) and common. At December 31, 2019, the following accounts and balances were included in shareholders’ equity:

Preferred shares, 270,000 shares issued (authorized, 1,000,000 shares)   $  2,900,000
Common shares, 900,000 shares (authorized, unlimited)   24,500,000
Contributed surplus—preferred   150,000
Contributed surplus—common   1,500,000
Retained earnings   5,000,000
Accumulated other comprehensive income   200,000


The contributed surplus accounts arose from net excess of proceeds over cost on previous cancellations of shares of each respective class. The following transactions affected shareholders’ equity during 2020:

Jan. 1   Issued 24,000 preferred shares at $24 per share.
Feb. 1   Issued 48,000 common shares at $19 per share.
June 1   Declared a 2-for-1 stock split (common shares).
July 1   Purchased and retired 27,000 common shares at $14 per share.
Dec. 31   Net income is $2,050,000; comprehensive income is $2,000,000.
Dec. 31   The preferred dividend is declared, and a common dividend of $0.45 per share is declared.
