Answer:

Option B. Treasury Stock for $1,200

Explanation:

The reason is that when 1,000 shares which has $2 par value and were issued at $10 per share, the journal entry was:

Dr Cash Account $10,000

Cr       Common Stock $2,000

Cr       Paid In Capital   $8,000

But when 100 shares were repurchased at $12 per share, then the accounting treatment would be

Dr Treasury Stock $1,200

Cr         Cash Account $1,200

So the correct option is option B.
