Answer:

Additional Paid-in Capital for $20,000.

Explanation:

The Journal is as follows:

Cash A/c             Dr. $120,000

To treasury stock                      $100,000

To Additional paid in capital     $20,000

(To record the treasury stock and Additional paid in capital)

Workings:

Cash = 10,000 shares × $12

        = $120,000

Treasury stock = 10,000 shares × $10

                         = $100,000

Additional paid in capital  = 10,000 shares × ($12 - $10)

                                           = 10,000 shares × $2

                                           = $20,000
