14-Jan Cash (24,000 shares*$32) $768,000    
         Common Stock (24,000 shares*$25)   600000
         Paid in Capital in Excess of Par   $168,000 
  (Being entry made to record the issuance of common stock)    
       
17-Mar Cash (60,000 shares*$11) $660,000    
         Preferred Stock (60,000 shares*$10)   600000
         Paid in Capital in Excess of Par   $60,000 
  (Being entry made to record the issuance of preferred stock)    

Total amount invested (total paid-in capital) by all stockholders as of March 17 = $600,000+$600,000+$168,000+$60,000 = $1,428,000.
