Many presentations would not show the detailed breakdown of par value and additional
paid-in capital for preferred and common stocks. Preferred stock would be shown as the
sum of par and additional paid-in capital of $5,000,000. Similarly, common would be
$12,000,000.

Some companies divide Additional Paid-in Capital into several separate accounts that
identify different sources of capital, for example:
Additional paid-in capitalpreferred stock
Additional paid-in capitalcommon stock
Additional paid-in capitaltreasury stock transactions
A consistent accounting treatment would call for debiting only Additional Paid-in
CapitalTreasury Stock Transactions (and no other paid-in capital account) for the
excess of the cost over the resale price of treasury shares. If there is no balance in
such a paid-in capital account, the debit should be made to Retained Earnings. These
practices will vary across companies.
