Horton industries’ shareholders’ equity included 180 million shares of $1 par common stock and a balance in paid-in capital—excess of par of $1,440 million. assuming that horton retires shares it reacquires (restores their status to that of authorized but unissued shares), by what amount will horton’s total paid-in capital decline if it reacquires 5 million shares at $7.00 per share?

$35 million

Explanation:

The computation of the total paid-in capital declined is shown below:

= Number of reacquired shares × per share price

= 5 million shares × $7

= $35 million

We simply multiplied the number of acquired shares with the price of each share so that the correct amount can come.
