Learning Objectives

Describe comprehensive income and its


components.

18-23

Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income includes four types
of gains and losses that traditionally have
been excluded from net income.

Net holding
gains (losses)
on investments.

Net
unrecognized
loss on
pensions.

Deferred gains
(losses) from
derivatives.

Gains (losses)
from foreign
currency
translations.

18-24

Comprehensive Income
Components of comprehensive income created during the reporting period:
($ in millions)

Net income
Other comprehensive income:
Net unrealized holding gains (losses) on investments (net of tax) $ x
Net unrecognized loss on pensions (net of tax)

Deferred gains (losses) from derivatives (net of tax)

x
Comprehensive income

$xxx

xx
$xxx

Changes in the market value of securities available-for-sale.


Reporting a pension liability sometimes requires recording this (described in Chapter 17).
It often is called pension liability adjustment.
When a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is adjusted to fair value, the gain or
loss is deferred as a component of comprehensive income and included in earnings later,
at the same time as earnings are affected by the hedged transaction (described in the
Derivatives Appendix to the text).
Gains or losses from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The amount could be
an addition to or reduction in shareholders equity. (This item is discussed elsewhere in
your accounting curriculum.)

18-25

Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is reported periodically as it is
created and also is reported as a cumulative amount.

There are 3 options for


reporting comprehensive
income created during the
reporting period.

As an additional
section of the
income
statement.

The accumulated amount of


comprehensive income is
reported as a separate item of
shareholders equity in the
balance sheet.

As part of the
statement of
shareholders
equity.

As a separate
statement in
a disclosure
note.

fair value of stock given up or fair value of
asset received, whichever is more clearly
evident.
If market values cannot be determined, use
appraised values.

that fair value and allocate the remainder
to the other security.

Share Issue Costs

Share issue costs reduce net proceeds


from selling shares, resulting in a lower
amount of additional paid-in capital.

18-36

Share Purchase Contracts


An agreement between a corporation and
a subscriber whereby shares are sold
in exchange for a promissory note.
Dow Industrial sold 100,000 shares of its
$1 par value stock for $10 using a share
purchase contract. Forty percent of the sale
price was collected at sale and sixty
percent will be received in six months.

Purpose
To allow a company undergoing financial
difficulty, but with favorable future
prospects, to get a fresh start by writing
down inflated assets and eliminating an
accumulated balance in retained earnings.

18-76

Quasi Reorganizations
Procedures

The firms assets and liabilities are revalued to


reflect market values, with corresponding debits
and credits to retained earnings.

The debit balance in retained earnings is


eliminated first against additional paid in capital,
and then, if necessary, against common stock.

Retained earnings is dated to indicate when the


new accumulation of earnings began.
