Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of common stock shares issued = 16,000

Cash collected from the issue = $176,900

Date of issue = February 20.

b) When shares are issued at no par or stated value, the corresponding credit for the Common Stock account equals the cash realized.  When the par value is less than the issued price, the corresponding credit above the par value is credited to the  Additional Paid-in Capital account.
