David Gain is the chief executive officer (CEO) of Forest Media Corp., which is interested in acquiring RS Communications, Inc. To initiate negotiations, Gain meets with RS's CEO, Gill Raz, on Friday, July 12. Two days later, Gain phones his brother, Mark, who buys 3,800 shares of RS stock on the following Monday. Mark discusses the deal with their father, Jordan, who buys 20,000 RS shares on Thursday. On July 25, the day before the RS bid is due, Gain phones his parents' home, and Mark buys another 3,200 RS shares. Over the next few days, Gain periodically phones Mark and Jordan, both of whom continued to buy RS shares. On August 5, RS refuses Forest's bid and announces that it is merging with another company.

Wilma Reynolds, CPA, a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), is controller of Premium Corporation, a publicly owned enterprise with a now- 60%-owned subsidiary, Service Company. Reynolds has informed Premium’s chief financial officer, Wayne Cartwright, that the $150,000 increase in Premium’s investment in Service, which resulted from Service’s just-completed issuance of additional common stock to the public, should be recognized as an increase in Premium’s additional paid-in capital, in accordance with a proposed standard of the FASB. Cartwright countered that
Topic 5-H of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins (SAB), which is based on SAB 51 and SAB 84, sanctions recognition of the $150,000 increase as non-operating income of Premium. Cartwright expressed the belief that because the SEC has statutory authority to establish accounting standards, its pronouncements should prevail over those proposed or issued by the FASB.
