    Dr Cash account 200

    Cr Common Stock account 200

    Explanation:

    Since cash is an asset account and it is increasing, it should be debited.

    Since common stock is an equity account and it is increasing, it should be credited.

    When new stocks are sold, they must be recorded at par value. Any extra money received from a stock sale (this is not the case) should go in the Paid in Excess of Par Value Account
