    Explanation:

    1. March 1

    Debit Cash $318,500

    Credit Common Stock (49,500 x $4 par value) = $198,000

    Credit Additional paid-in capital $120,500

    Since, the company issues 49,500 shares with an excess of par value, an additional paid-in capital account will be a credit. It can be calculated = $ (318,500 - 198,000) or, [$ (318,500/49,500) - $4]*49,500.

    In both the cases, the additional capital is $120,500.

    2. April 1

    Debit Cash $84,000

    Credit Common Stock $84,000

    There will be no additional capital as the firm issues the same number of stock with no-par value.

    3. April 6

    Debit Inventory $53,000

    Debit Machinery $150,000

    Credit Note payable $103,000

    Credit Common Stock (3,400 x $20) $68,000

    Credit Additional paid-in capital $32,000

    Since the company issues common stock for inventory and machinery, those should be debited. The company also accepts a notes payable to issue the common stock so that the note payable is credit. And the balancing amount will be additional paid-in capital.
