The procedure for the journal entry is as shown below while a complete journal entry has been attached.

How to Prepare a Journal Entry?

The journal entry to record the given transaction would be as follows:

Dr Cash 50,000

   Cr Common stock 1,000

   Cr Additional paid in capital 49,000

This transaction would certainly mean an increase in the current assets (cash account) and an increase in equity (common stock and additional paid in capital accounts).

If the par value was $2 per stock, then the journal entry should have been:

Dr Cash 50,000

   Cr Common stock 2,000

   Cr Additional paid in capital 48,000

Finally, the difference is that common stock account will increase by $2,000 instead of $1,000, and additional paid in capital account will increase by only $48,000. However, both accounts are part of stockholders' equity.
