Option (b) $30,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

shares of common stock issued @ $7 per share = 10,000

shares of common stock issued @ $8 per share = 20,000

Net income = $100,000

Dividend paid = $50,000

Number of treasury stocks purchased = 3,000

Price per stock of treasury stocks = $10

Now,

The balance in the Treasury Stock account at the end of 2021

= Number of treasury stocks purchased * Price per stock of treasury stocks

= 3,000 * $10

= $30,000

Hence,

Option (b) $30,000
