On march 1st, jones corporation purchased 1,000 shares of previously issued common stock, paying $2 per share. on april 1st, jones sold 500 shares at $3 per share. what is the amount of paid-in capital from treasury stock transactions for the sale of 500 shares?

Paid-in capital from treasury stock is the amount of difference between the cost and the sale price of the treasury stock.

In the given problem the treasury shares were purchased for $2 per share and 500 shares are sold for $3 per share. Hence Paid-in capital from treasury stock shall be 3-2 = $1 per share and Total Paid-in capital from treasury stock shall be 500 shares * $ = $500

Hence the answer is $500

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!
