Answer:

It will credit:

   Treasury Stock for            144,000

   Additional Paid-in TS  for  56,000

Explanation:

for the purchase Hobbs did:

treasury stock 216,000

           cash                      216,000

the entry for the issuance  of 8,000 shares will be:

cash proceeds debit: 8,000 x 25 = 200,000

treasury stock at cost: 8,000 18 = 144,000 credit

additional paid-in treasury stock for the difference 200,000 - 144,000 = 56,000

cash 200,000 debit

   Treasury Stock 144,000 credit

   Sdditional Paid-in TS   56,000 credit
