    23,125 shares

    Explanation:

    The computation of the number of outstanding common stock shares is shown below:

    = (Common stock : Par value per share) - (Treasury stock : cost per share)

    where,

    Common stock is $232,000

    Par value per share is $10

    Treasury stock is $975

    And, the cost per share is $15

    Now placing these values to the above formula

    So, the number of common stock outstanding shares is

    = ($232,000 : $10) - ($975 : $15)

    = $23,200 - $65

    = 23,135 shares
