Workings

(W1)

Common stock is recorded at par value. Total number of shares outstanding are,

Outstanding = 100,000 - 20,000 + 5000 = 85000 @ $1 each

(W2)

Additional Paid in capital is the premium paid on shares,

In the initial offering of 100,000 shares, $11 per share was paid in thus bringing in a total of $1,100,000.

This amount was then used to repurchase stock

Repurchase deduction = 20,000 * 15 = $300,000

Later the stock re issue brought in a premium of 18 - 1 =$17 per share thus a total of 5000 * 17 = $85,000

This brings the balance of paid in capital as

Paid in capital = 1,100,000 - 300,000 + 85,000 = $715,000,

(W3)

Notice that when we paid for repurchase we paid the par value plus premium, the par value is 20,000 @ $1 =20,000 and after reissue it is reduced to 20,000 - 5000 = 15,000.  This is the amount of treasury stock held, which we deducted from the Additional paid in capital account.
