My corportation issued 2,000 shares of $25 par value common stock and 300 shares of 13%, $50 par value preferred stock for cash at par value.

Need journal entry for this scenario.

Debit Cash for the whole amount received
Credit Preferred Stock for the par value of preferred shares * number of shares of preferred shares
Credit Common Stock for par value of common shares * the par value of common shares
