A. $153,000

Explanation:

The Journal Entry is shown below:-

Property Dr, $1,173,000

To Treasure stock $1,020,000

To additional paid-in-capital $153,000

The computation is given below:-

For Property

= 25,500 * $46

= $1,173,000

For Treasure stock

= 25,500 * $40

= $1,020,000

For Additional paid-in-capital

= $1,173,000 - $1,020,000

= $153,000
