    Dr Treasury stocks 200

    Cr Cash 200

    Explanation:

    Whenever treasury stock is repurchased, you must record the full purchase price under treasury stock account (debit balance) and credit cash or any other asset used to pay for them.

    Treasury stock is a contra equity account that reduces the value of shareholders' equity, that is why it has a debit balance while shareholders' equity has a credit balance.
