    Answer: 50.000

    Explanation:

    Outstanding shares is the total number of shares that have been authorised, issued, acquired by shareholders and have not been reacquired by the company.

    The total number of shares the company can sell is 100,000.

    The total number of shares acquired is 60,000

    The total number of shares reacquired is 10,000

    The total number of outstanding shares = 60,000 - 10,000 = 50,000

    Share issuance is a way through which corporations raise capital.

    People who acquire shares in a company are known as the owners of the company.
