1. Acceptance of land owned by Baguio company valued at P1,600,000 and carried at its historical cost of P1,120,000.
2. Acceptance of an equity interest in Baguio company in the form of 16,000 shares with fair value of P120 per share. The share capital has a par value of P100 per share.

If it moves to a capital structure with 30% debt based on market values, its cost of equity, rs, will increase to 12% to reflect the increased risk. Bonds can be sold at a cost, rd, of 7%.

In a recent year, GE Capital issued 11 billion in long-term debt to investors, then within days filed legal documents to prepare for another 50 billion long-term debt issue. As a result of the 50 billion filing, the price of the initial 11 billion offering declined (due to higher risk of more debt). Bill Gross, a manager of a bond investment fund, denounced a lack in candor related to GEs recent debt deal. It was the most recent and most egregious example of how bondholders are mistreated. Gross argued that GE was not forthright when GE Capital recently issued 11 billion in bonds, one of the largest issues ever from a U.S. corporation. What bothered Gross is that three days after the issue the company announced its intention to sell as much as 50 billion in additional debt, warrants, preferred stock, guarantees, letters of credit and promissory notes at some future date. In your opinion, did GE Capital act unethically by selling 11 billion of long-term debt without telling those investors that a few days later it would be filing documents to prepare for another 50 billion debt offering?
