问题如下:
When a company buys shares of its own stock to be held in treasury, it records a reduction in:
选项:
A.
both assets and liabilities.
B.
both assets and shareholders’ equity.
C.
assets and an increase in shareholders’ equity.
解释:
B is correct.
Share repurchases reduce the company’s cash (an asset). Shareholders’ equity is reduced because there are fewer shares outstanding and treasury stock is an offset to owners’ equity.
解析:股份回购是公司自己拿钱把发行在外的股票买回来,首先资产中的cash会减少,回购回来可以注销掉,那么就直接减少equity,或者作为treasury stock库藏股报告在equity中,但是是一个抵减项,会减少equity。
如题,这个知识点听课的时候也没太理解
