    balance in the Paid-in Capital is $130

    so correct option is d. $130

    Explanation:

    given data

    repurchased = 260 shares

    common stock = $13,000

    reissued = 130

    per share = $52

    treasury shares = $49 per share

    to find out

    balance in the Paid in Capital

    solution

    we know reuse share is 130 * $52 = 6760

    and other reuse share is 130 * $49 = 6370

    repurchased 260 shares = $13,000

    so balance is = 6760 + 6370 - $13,000

    balance in the Paid-in Capital is 13130 - 13000

    balance in the Paid-in Capital is $130

    so correct option is d. $130
