Sorrento Skies Corporation issues 16.000 shares of $100 par value preferred stock for cash at $120 per share. The entry to record the transaction will consist of a debit to Cash for $1.920,000 and a credit or credits to a. Preferred Stock for $1,920,000. b. Paid-in Capital from Preferred Stock for $1.920,000 c. Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Retained Earnings for $320,000 d. Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred Stock for $320,000

The correct option is D,credit to Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred Stock for $320,000

Explanation:

The total par value of the preferred stock issue is $100 multiplied by 16,000 which gives $1,600,000 while the remaining $20 per share multiplied by 16,000 that gave rise $320,000 goes to the credit of paid-in capital in excess of par-preferred stock account.

Option A is wrong because the preferred has a par value of $100 hence the total cash proceeds cannot be posted to preferred stock account alone.

Option B is wrong because the excess of $20 per share cannot be posted to retained earnings since it is net income
