A company sold 200 shares of $2 par treasury stock for $5 per share. The treasury stock was originally purchased for $4 per share. The journal entry for this transaction includes:
dr. Cash 1,000, dr. APIC (additional paid-in capital) 600, cr. Treasury Stock 1,600
dr. Cash 1,000, cr. APIC (additional paid-in capital) 600, cr. Treasury Stock 400
dr. Cash 1,000, dr. APIC (additional paid-in capital) 200, cr. Treasury Stock 1,200
dr. Cash 1,000, cr. APIC (additional paid-in capital) 200, cr. Treasury Stock 800
The correct answer is
Dr. Cash , Cr. APIC (additional paid in capital) 200, cr. Treasury stock 800
Explanation
Since the compay has sold its treasury stock for 5 each so it will receive cash of $ 1000 (5*200) and is has been sold above $ 1 above its repurchase cost so additional paid in capital will be credited with $ 200 (200*1) and Treasury stock will be credited with 800 (200*4).
So the correct answer is
Dr. Cash , Cr. APIC (additional paid in capital) 200, cr. Treasury stock 800
