MAKING FINANCIAL DECISIONS
LO 1,2 DECISION CASE 11-3 DEBT VERSUS PREFERRED STOCK
1. The purpose of this problem is to allow students to see the similarities and differ-
ences between a liability and an equity. In the problem, the loan of First Company is
very similar to the preferred stock of Second Company. Both securities indicate an-
nual payments of 8% (interest or dividend). Further, the stock carries a mandatory
2. Whether the preferred stock should be considered a liability or an equity is a matter
of judgment. This is a good opportunity to stress form over substance. The proper
classification of the security should be based on the student’s belief about the sub-
stance of the transaction rather than on whether the company has chosen to call the
security a loan or stock.
LO 2 DECISION CASE 11-4 PREFERRED VERSUS COMMON STOCK
Preferred Stock—Preferred stock has no voting rights. The company is not obligated to
pay dividends until they are declared; however, the cumulative feature requires that the
company pay preferred shareholders all dividends in arrears before common share-
holders receive a dividend.

ETHICAL DECISION MAKING

1. Recognize an ethical dilemma:
The ethical issue in this case is whether or not Jim Brock acted improperly when he
2. Analyze the key elements in the situation:
1. Was anyone harmed by Brock’s actions, e.g., the parties that sold the stock at a
low price?
2. Does it matter if Brock himself profited or if some other party purchased stock
based on his knowledge?
3. Do brokers and analysts receive information about the firm that is not available to
the public? Doesn’t everyone engage in insider information?
3. List alternatives and evaluate the impact of each on those affected:
If Brock decides he has acted ethically, then he has no further responsibility in the
4. Select the best alternative:
In this case, it appears that Jim has acted unethically. He has not upheld his respon-
sibilities to his employer. Further, it is quite possible that his actions are illegal. The
SEC and state authorities have very stringent rules against someone using “insider
information” in order to obtain an advantage.
