Preferred stock usually has a par value. Like common stock it can be sold at  a price different from par. Preferred stock is recorded in its own separate contributed capital accounts.

The preferred stock accounts are included as a part of contributed capital.The entries for issuing preferred stock for non cash assets are similar to those for common stock.
