Common stock: These are the common shares that a company issues to creditors to raise funds. In return, creditors are entitled to a dividend share of the profits received by the firm.

Par value: It refers to the worth of a share suggested by the charter of the company. Often referred to as a portfolio face value.

Date     Account Titles and Explanation    Debit (S)     Credit (S)

                        Cash (1)                             101,595,000

                 Common Stock (2)                                          7500

   Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par value (3)               101,587,500

(To record safe of .5 million shores of $0.001 par value per share in excess of Par)  

Compute the amount of cash received from common stock issue.  

Cash received = Number of shares issued x Price per share

                        = 7.500,000 shares x $13.546

                        =$101,595,000  

Compute common stock value.  

Common H= 'Number of shares v Par value of common stock stock value  

                  = 7,500,000 shares x SO 001 per share

                  = $7,500  

Compute paid-in capital in excess of par value.  

Paid-in capital in = I (Cash received—excess of par value Common stock value

                           =$101,595.000(1) — S7,5001.2)

                           = $101,587,500
