Answer:

Explanation:

We assume the 8 million shares are sold at $1 par common stock

The journal entry to record the issuance of common stock is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $96,000,000         ($8,000,000 × $12)

    To Common Stock $8,000,000          ($8,000,000 × $1)

    To  Additional Paid-in Capital in excess of par - Common Stock $88,000,000

(Being the issuance of stock is recorded and the remaining balance is credited to the additional paid-in capital account)

While issuing the stock, we debited the cash account and credited the common stock and additional paid-in capital account
