Answer:

The answer is: D) Common Stock $10,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Common Stock $2,000.

Explanation:

The common stock must be recorded at par value at the Common Stock account.

Any extra money obtained by issuing stock and selling it over its par value has to be recorded in the Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Common Stock account.

On the other hand, if companies issue stock below par value, they are issuing shares at discount.
