D. 200,000

Explanation:

As per given information

Preferred Stock, 7%, $115 par                              $1,170,000

Common Stock, $1.50 par                                   $300,000

Paid in capital in excess of par, common stock $1,200,000

Retained earnings                                                $2,500,000

Total                                                                       $5,170,000

As common stock is reported on the par value we can calculate the number of share by simply dividing total value with par value.

Common Stock = $300,000

Number of shares = Common stock paid in capital / Par value

Number of shares = $300,000 / $1.50

Number of shares = 200,000 shares

200,000 share are classified as issued shares.
