Question

Question-based on, issuing shares.

 

I have tried it and the incorrect are the last two, so it is either common stock 90,000 or paid-in capital of 420,000.

 

Thanks for the help.

Step 1

The year end balance sheet will reflect the common stock at par value and additional paid-in capital for the excess price over the par value (if any). Similarly, the preferred stocks are reported on the balance sheet.
