Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Par value is the monetary value assigned per share in the corporate charter. It is not the actual worth of a share or the original selling price for a share, but rather a nominal value used for legal and accounting purposes. The par value is established at the time the company is incorporated and does not change unless the company goes through a stock split or reverse stock split.
