For example, you could deposit cash in a bank account to earn interest. You could also invest cash in preferred or common stocks and in corporate or . government notes and bonds. Preferred and common stock can be purchased through a stock exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Preferred stock is purchased primarily with the expectation of earning dividends. Common stock is purchased with the expectation of earning dividends or realizing gains from a price increase in the stock.

Companies make investments for many of the same reasons that you would as an i­ndividual. For example, News Corporation, a diversified media company, which produces such popular television shows as The Simpsons and American Idol, has invested approximately $652 million of available cash in stocks and bonds. These investments are held by News Corporation for interest, dividends, and expected price increases. Unlike most individuals, however, companies also purchase significant amounts of the outstanding common stock of other companies for strategic reasons. For example, News Corporation invested in 32% of Hulu, an online video joint venture with other major media companies. Investments in debt and equity securities give rise to a number of accounting issues. These issues are described and illustrated in this chapter. Copyright 2012 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
