    The correct option is cash is debited for $294,000.00

    Explanation:

    The cash realized from issuing common stock of 14000 shares at $21 is calculated thus:

    Cash realized=$21*14000=$294,000.00

    As a result cash is debited with $294,000.00

    The option of crediting common with $294,000.00 does not arise because common is only meant to be credited with par value of each share multiplied by number of shares issued-that is $98,000.00 ($7*14000)

    Common stock cannot be debited with $98000.00 as it a capital account which is usually credited with increase

    Paid-in-capital in excess of par cannot be debited with $196,000.00 and should instead be credited with same amount
