Common stock with a total par value of $50,000 (par value of $0.50 per share) have been issued, and 5,000 shares of treasury stock with a total cost of $25,000 have been repurchased. How many total shares are outstanding

Respuesta :

Answer: 95000 shares

Explanation:

The total shares that are outstanding will be calculated as the difference between the total shares issued and the treasury Share purchased.

The number of shares issued will be calculated as:

= 50000/0.50

= 100000 Shares

Therefore, the total shares that are outstanding will be:

= 100000 shares - 5000 shares

= 95000 shares
