Preferred Stock or preferred shares are the shares that are issued to the investors who wish for specified dividend periodically. The firm has a compulsion to pay the dividend to its Preference shareholders’. Unlike common stockholders’, preference shareholders are not considered as the owners of the company and they don’t even get the right to vote (or have a say) in important decisions of the firm.

As you can see in the stockholders’ equity statement, numbers of preference shares that have been authorized by the concerned authority are 100,000 preference shares.

Authorized shares are the maximum number of shares that the firm can issue in the market in the entire lifetime of the firm.

When a company raises its finances by issuing common stock to stockholders, then the resulting amount is shown under Capital Stock section of Stockholders’ equity.

A common stock is issued by the company to raise finance using equity. These are issued to the investors (who are regarded as stockholders or shareholders, once common stock is issued to them) with no obligation to pay dividend periodically. Common stock is also referred to as common shares.

Authorized Shares are the maximum number of shares that the firm can issue to shareholders.

Issued Shares are the shares that have been issued in the market (once). Even if the company purchases its own shares from the market, they’ll still be counted as Issued Shares because they have been issued (once) in the market.

Outstanding shares are the shares that are currently held by the shareholders in the market.

For common stock:

No. of outstanding shares (issued) = 600,000

Common stock capital = $1,200,000

Additional Paid-in Capital = $4,800,000

Capital raised by issuing common stock = Common stock capital + Additional Paid-in Capital

Capital raised by issuing common stock = $1,200,000 + $4,800,000

Capital raised by issuing common stock = $6,000,000

Average issue price = Capital raised by issuing common stockNo. of outstanding shares

Average issue price = $6,000,000600,000

Average issue price = $10.

No. of outstanding common shares = 550,000

No. of shares repurchased = No. of issued shares - No. of outstanding common shares

No. of shares repurchased = 600,000 − 550,000

No. of shares repurchased = 50,000
