A company issues common stock to raise money, so the debit will always be to cash. Shares Issued for Cash.This is the simplest scenario: shares will be issued to the holder in exchange for a cash payment. Therefore, there is no journal entry for a stock authorization. Shares issued is the number of shares a corporation has sold to stockholders for the first time. To record the receipt of cash: Debit: Cash (the amount received from the sale of shares) Credit: Share Capital (the par value of the shares issued). But our journal entry looks very much the same. Cool? So the first thing we want to do is find out how much the par value was, right? The journal entry recorded as a result of issuing stock to investors for cash is a debit to Cash and a credit to Common Stock. The cash asset and the common stock equity accounts must increase: Description, Debit, Credit.
