Answer:

Journal entries for issue for cash proceeds of $96,000

Dr Cash $96,000

Cr Common stock par value($14*6000) $84,000

Cr Paid-in capital in excess of par value($96,000-$84,000) $12,000

The journal entries with neither par or stated value

Dr Cash $96,000

Cr Common stock with neither par or stated value $96,000

Journal entries when stated value is $7

Dr Cash $96,000

Cr Common stock at stated value of $7($7*6000) $42,000

Cr Paid-in capital in excess of stated value($96,000-$42,000) $52,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Cash is debited in all cases as the more cash was received,an increase in asset is normally debited to the relevant asset account.

Common stock and paid-in capital in excess par were credited because they shows the increase in amount owed by the business to their owners.
