Explanation:

When a company uses the cost method of accounting for treasury stock, when the company purchases stock, the treasury account is debited by the full cost of the purchase. When treasury resells stock, the original debited amount is credited and any extra money received goes to the additional paid in capital account.

When Knight purchased the stock, $240,000 were debited from treasury stock account. When Knight's treasury resold the stock, $240,000 were credited to treasury stock account and $140,000 (= $380,000 - $240,000) were credited to additional paid in capital account.
