Respuesta :

Answer:

1. Par Value of Preferred stock;

= Preferred stock value / Shares issued

= 1,400,000/280,000

= $5

2. Par Value of Common Stock

= Common stock value / Shares issued

= 2,000,002/1,000,000

= $2

3. Selling price per share including Paid-In Cap

Paid-in cap is the price of a share that exceeds its par value. Selling price therefore is;

= (Par Value + Paid In cap)/ Number of shares

= (2,000,000 + 6,000,000) / 1,000,000

= $8 per share
