Answer:

$585,640

Explanation:

Paid in capital in excess of on January 1 , 2018

= 100,000 × ($8 - $2)

= $100,000 × $6

= $600,000

Paid in capital in excess of par on repurchased share for retiring

= 3,590 × ($6 - $2)

= 3,590 × $4

= $14,360

Therefore,

Balance in paid in capital in excess of par after February 3rd transaction

= $600,000 - $14,360

= $585,640
