Answer 1

Answer:

A. $153,000

Explanation:

The Journal Entry is shown below:-

Property Dr,                                          $1,173,000

          To Treasure stock                     $1,020,000

           To additional paid-in-capital    $153,000

The computation is given below:-

For Property

= 25,500 × $46

= $1,173,000

For Treasure stock

= 25,500 × $40

= $1,020,000

For Additional paid-in-capital

= $1,173,000 - $1,020,000

= $153,000
