Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows

Cash A/c Dr $180,000,000                           ($15,000,000 × $12)

              To Common stock $15,000,000         ($15,000,000 × $1)

              To Paid in capital in excess of par  - Common stock A/c $165,000,000

(Being the sale of the shares is recorded)

The remaining amount left i.e transferred to the paid in capital in excess of par value of common stock

= $180,000,000 - $15,000,000

= $165,000,000
