  • Cash is an asset account. Since share options are exercised and shares are purchased for cash, cash is received. Therefore, debit Cash account with $275,000.
  • Paid-in Capital from Share Options is a shareholders’ equity account. Since share options which are granted are exercised, the entry is reversed and cancelled for options exercised. Therefore, debit Paid-in Capital from Share Options account with $90,000.
  • Common Stock is a shareholders’ equity account. Since share options which are granted are exercised and shares are sold, common stock amount increased. Therefore, credit Common Stock account with $50,000.
  • Additional Paid-in Capital on Common Stock is a shareholders’ equity account. Since share options which are granted are exercised and shares are sold for more than par value, additional capital amount increased. Therefore, credit Additional Paid-in Capital on Common Stock account with $315,000.
