Expert Solution

· When treasury stock is resold:
Cash is debited by amount at which these are reissued.
Treasury Stock is credited by the amount of cost of shares reissued.

· Cash to be debited = 500 shares x $ 15 = $ 7500

· Treasury Stock to be credited by = 500 shares x $ 21 = $ 10,500

· Correct Answer = Option #2
Credit Treasury Stock for $ 10,500
