    Hey guys (&gals),

    I appreciate your help looking at understanding the following:

    Under cost method,

    1.) If company sells 100 sh ($1par) @ $5/sh:

    Dr- cash $500

    Cr- stock $100

    2.) Co reacquires 50 sh @ $10/sh

    Dr- treasury stock $500

    Cr- cash $500

    3.) Co sells all of 50 reacquired (#2) @ $5p/sh

    DR- cash $250

    DR- APIC treasury stock $250

    Cr- treasury stock $500

    does this sound right??

    I appreciate the help..it’s saving me from a meltdown right now!
