Respuesta :

Answer:

Debit Cash account           $57,000

Credit Shares capital         $3,000

Credit Share premium       $54,000

Being entries to record cash received from the issuance of shares

Explanation:

Par value per share = $1

Issue price per share = $19

Premium per share from issue = $19 - $1

                                                   = $18

Number of issued shares = 3000

Share capital balance from issue = 3000 × $1

                                                          = $3000

Premium balance = 3000 × $18

                             = $54,000

Cash received from Issue = 3000 × $19

                                           = $57,000
