Explanation:

Par Value of stock = 26,000 * 1 = $26,000

Cash received = 26,000 * 12 = $312,000

Paid in Capital in excess of Par, Common stock = 312,000 - 26,000 = $286,000

Cash would be debited by the amount received.

Common Stock would be credited by the Par value of $26,000

Paid in Capital in excess of Par will be credited as well for $286,000.

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
