    Dr. Cr.

    Cash $127,500

    Additional paid in capital $1,500

    Add-in Capital Common share $126,000

    Explanation:

    1.

    Share issued below par are issued on the discounted value.

    Cash received = $127,500

    Price per share = $127,500 / 14,000 = $9.11

    Add-in capital value = 14,000 x $18 = 252,000

    2.

    Stock with no par value does not have any discount price or premium price all the amount received in cash is added to add-in capital common share account.

    3.

    Stated value is the value of stock given to share for accounting purpose only. In this situation common stock value is calculated as

    Common stock = number of shares x stated value = 14,000 x 9 = 126,000
