Gabriella · Answer 1

credit to Paid-In Capital from Treasury Stock for $30,000.

Explanation:

The Journal entry is shown below:-

Cash Dr, $100,000

(5,000 * $20)

To Treasury stock $70,000

(5000 * $14)

To Additional paid in capital $30,000

(5000 * $6)

Therefore we debited the cash as liability is increasing and we credited the treasury stock and additional paid in capital as it also increasing the liability.
