III Practical Problems
PROBLEM 1
(a) The total amount of semiannual interest is: (0.09 x P2,000,000) / 2 = P90,000 (b) The after-tax cost of the semiannual interest payments is: P90,000 x (1 – 0.34)
= P59,400

PROBLEM 3
Northpark Noodles Company has issued 140,000 shares (0.70 x 200,000 shares) and repurchased 14,000 (0.10 x 140,000) of these shares Hence, the total number
of shares outstanding is the number of issued shares less treasury stock or 126,000 shares (140,000 – 14,000)
PROBLEM 4
The P3,200,000 (P16 x 200,000 shares) is recorded from the stock sale and is separated into two accounts: common stock and additional paid-in capital The common stock account is P200,000 (P1 par x 200,000 shares) and the additional paid-in capital account is P3,000,000 (P15 x 200,000 shares) The balance sheet accounts are shown below:
