    Explanation:

    Crane Company

    Date Details DR ($) CR ($)

    June 12: Cash 326,250

    Common stock 87,000

    Share Premium - Common stock (1) 239,250

    Being the issue of common stock at a premium.

    June 11: Cash 299,600

    Preferred stock (2) 282,800

    Share premium - Preferred stock (3) 16,800

    Being the issue of preferred stock at a premium.

    Nov. 28 Treasury stock 3,450

    Common stock (4) 4,800

    Cash 8,250

    Being a purchase of treasury stock at more than per value.

    Note:

    (1) Share Premium - Common stock = 326,250 - 87,000 = 239,250

    (2) Preferred stock = 2,800 * $101 = 282,800

    (3) Share premium - Preferred stock = (107 - 101) * 2,800 = 16,800

    (4) Common stock = 8,250 - 3450 = 4,800 when the par value method is used instead of cash method.
