    We are asked to solve for the total of outstanding shares that the biscuit corporation has given that initial common stock is 25,000 shares. When 150,000 shares of common stock were issued, the new remaining balance can be computed as below:

    New Balance common stock = old balance - issued shares

    New Balance common stock = 250,000 - 150,000

    New Balance common stock = 100,000

    When 40,000 shares were on hold in the common stock, we have a new balance as shown below:

    New balance stock = 100,000 + 40,000

    New balance stock = 140,000 shares

    The answer is 140,000 shares of common stock.
