(b) Issue price of common stock = (amount of capital at par value + Paid in capital in excess of par)/ No of stock

= (700000 + 600000)/70000 = $18.57

(c) Issue price of Preferred stock = (amount of capital at par value + Paid in capital in excess of par)/ No of stock

= (1250000 + 100000)/25000 = $54
