Answer and Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Land       $45,000  

Building   $95,000  

          To Common Stock,$10 Par value $100,000 (10,000 shares × $10)

          To Paid in capital excess of Par Value, Common Stock $40,000

(Being the shares are issued in exchange for land)

Here land and building is debited as it increased the assets and credited the common stock and paid in capital as it also increased the equity
