Explanation:

A - Cash receipt $94,000. $94,000 was collected for the sale of equipment

D - Cash payment $120,000 (4,000 shares x $50)

E - Cash receipt $200,000 (3,000 shares x $40)

F - Cash payment. $52,500. Treasury stock reduces shares issued. So the new shares will be $35,000 ($40,000 - $5,000). Total dividends paid now equals $52,500 ($35,000 x $1.50)

G - Cash payment. $287,000. Payment of $287,000 was done
