    Option (A) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Journal entry at time of selling treasury stock:

    Cash A/c Dr. $56,250

    To Treasury stock $52,500

    To Paid in capital in excess of par $3,750

    Workings:

    cash = 2,500 * 22.5

    = $56,250

    Treasury stock = 2,500 * $21

    = $52,500

    Paid in capital in excess of par = 2,500 * $1.5

    = $3,750

    Therefore, this will conclude that

    Treasury stock will decrease by $52,500.
