Explanation:

January 22

Common Stock = Numbers of shares issued x Issue price per share

Common Stock = 342,000 shares x $20

Common Stock = $6,840,000

February 14

Preferred stock = Numbers of preferred shares x Price per preferred share

Preferred stock = 9,000 shares x $80 per share

Preferred stock = $720,000

August 30

Cash Received = Numbers of shares x issuance price = 31,000 x $85 = $2,635,000

Cash Received = Numbers of shares x par value = 31,000 x $80 = $2,480,000

Paid in capital excess of par  = $2,635,000 - $2,480,000 = $155,000
