Explanation:

1. Journal to record common stock issued

Account title                                             Debit               Credit

  Cash                                                 $210,400

Common stock                                                           $22,500

Paid in capital in excess of par                                  $187,900

common stock

Calculation:

Cash = 4,500 x $45 + $7900= $210,400

Common stock =4,500 x $5=$22,500

Paid in capital in excess of par common stock = Cash - Common stock =$210,400-$22,500=$187,900

 

2) To reccord Land purchased in exchange of common stock

Account title                                             Debit               Credit

  Land                                                     $50,600

Common stock                                                             $ 5,500

Paid in capital in excess of par                                     $45,100

common stock

Calculation:

Land= 1,100 x $46 = $50,600

Common stock =1,100 x $5=$5,500

Paid in capital in excess of par common stock = 1100 x (46-5)$41=45,100

Treasury stock       =  470 shares x$41= $19,270
