Shares Investments in Whalen Inc. Dr. 138000

Bank Account Cr. 138000

July 6, 2010

Now, when in 6 july 2010, shares' stock will be split 2 for every 1, it means number of shares will be double. So, dividend will increase as per this rule

Dividend Received

3000 X 2 X 0.60 = $ 3600

Bank Account Dr. 3600

Dividend Received Account Cr.3600

Oct. 14, 2010 

Sold 900 shares @ $ 25 per share less brokerage commission $ 50

If we want to calculate the profit on this sale, we have to calculate the real cost of these shares.

Cost of 900 shares

= 138000 X 900/ 6000 = $ 20700

Net sale value of 900 shares = (900 X $ 25 ) - $50 = $ 22450


Profit on sale of 900 shares = $ 1750


Bank Account Dr. 22450

Share investment in Whalen Inc. Cr. 20700

Profit on Sale of Share Investment in Whalen Inc. Cr. 1750

Dec. 9, 2010

Balance shares in hand = 6000 -900 = 5100

Dividend = 0.60 x 5100 =$ 3060


Bank Account Dr. 3060

Dividend Received Cr. 3060

Dec. 31, 2010


 Fair Value of Per share after sale

= ( 138000 - 20700 )/ 5100 =  $ 23 per share

New fair value = $ 21

Unrealized loss due to changing  fair value

= $ 23 -$ 21 = $ 2

5100 X 2 =  $ 10200

Bank Account Dr. 3570

Dividend Received from Whalen Inc.  Cr. 3570

Dec. 8, 2011

Balance shares in hand = 6000 -900 = 5100
