G. Calculate the following.

Question 1.
One shareholder holding 500 equity shares paid share application money @ ₹ 3, Allotment money @ ₹ 4 per share and failed to pay a final call of ₹ 3 per share his share was forfeited calculate the amount of forfeiture.
Solution:
Amount of forfeiture = Amount received by the company (In case of non-payment of ‘calls’)
Here, shareholders paid ₹ 3 per share on application and ₹ 4 per share on the allotment on 500 shares.
So, total amount received by company = 500 × ₹ 3 + 500 × ₹ 4
= 1,500 + 2,000
= ₹ 3,500
∴ Amount of share forfeiture = ₹ 3,500.

Question 2.
10,000 equity shares of ₹ 10 each issued at a 10% premium. Calculate the total amount of share premium.
Solution:
Equity shares = 10,000
Face value = ₹ 10 per share
Premium @ 10% = 10,000 × 10 × \(\frac{10}{100}\) = ₹ 10,000
So, premium 10,000 shares of ₹ 10 each at 10% = ₹ 10,000

Question 3.
The company received excess applications for 5000 shares @ ₹ 4 per share. The application of 1000 shares was rejected and a pro-rata allotment was made. Calculate the amount of application money adjusted with allotment.
Solution:
Excess application money received for 5000 shares @ ₹ 4 per share = ₹ 20,000
Less: Application of 1000 shares rejected and money refunded = ₹ 4,000
Excess money received to be adjusted with allotment = ₹ 16,000

Question 4.
80,000 equity shares of ₹ 10 each issued and fully subscribed and called up at 20% premium. Calculate the amount of Equity Share capital.
Answer:
Equity Share capital = No. of equity shares × face value of each share
= 80,000 × ₹ 10
= ₹ 8,00,000
Note: Equity Share capital has no concern with premium or discount amount.

Question 5.
Directors issued 20,000 equity shares of ₹ 100 each at par. These were fully subscribed and called up. All money was received except one shareholder holding 100 equity shares failed to pay a final call of ₹ 20 per share. Calculate the amount of Paid-up capital of the company.
Solution:
Fully subscribed and called-up amount = 20,000 equity shares × ₹ 100 each share
= ₹ 20,00,000
But one share holder failed to pay final call of ₹ 20 per share of 100 equity shares means
Non-payment of shares = 100 equity shares × ₹ 20 per share = ₹ 2,000
∴ Total Paid-up capital amount = ₹ 20,00,000 – ₹ 2,000 = ₹ 19,98,000

Question 6.
The company sends a regret letter for 100 shares and an Allotment letter to 25,000 shareholders. Application money per ₹ 20 per share. Calculate the amount of application money that the company is refunding.
Solution:
The company sends a Regret letter for 100 shares for ₹ 20 per share application money received i.e. only that much amount the company will refund.
Amount of refund = No. of shares × Value of per share
= 100 × ₹ 20
= ₹ 2,000

= 2,40,000 + 1,60,000 + 2,38,500 + 1,60,000
= ₹ 7,98,500

2. Directors have not made the final call of ₹ 2 per share means total called-up amount = ₹ 10 – ₹ 2 = ₹ 8

(C) Konark Ltd. forfeited 50 shares of ₹ 10 each, ₹ 8 called-up. The shareholder failed to pay the first call of ₹ 3 per share. Later on, 30 shares of these were re-issued at ₹ 7 per share.
Solution:
Journal Entries [For Asha Ltd.]

Working Notes for A:
1. Out of 100 forfeited shares, 80 shares were re-issued accordingly Equity Share Capital A/c is debited and credited.
2. To find the proportionate amount for Forfeiture A/c:
For 100 shares-share forfeiture amount = ₹ 1,200
∴ 80 shares – share forfeiture amount = ₹ 960
Now, out of this ₹ 960 we used ₹ 400 from Share Forfeiture A/c at the time of re-issue of shares.
So, balance of Share Forfeiture A/c = ₹ 960 – ₹ 400 = ₹ 560

Journal Entries [For Bhakti Ltd.]

Working Notes for B:
1. Out of 100 forfeited shares, 80 shares were re-issued accordingly Equity Share Capital A/c is debited for ₹ 600 and credited for ₹ 480.

2. The proportionate amount debited to Forfeiture A/c:
For 100 shares-share forfeiture amount debited = ₹ 500 1 Qn
∴ 80 shares – share forfeiture amount = ₹ \(\frac{80}{100} \times \frac{500}{1}\) = ₹ 400
Now, shares were re-issued at ₹ 6 per share which is a called-up amount.
∴ The proportionate amount for Forfeiture A/c ₹ 400 will be transferred to Capital Reserve A/c.

Journal Entries (For Konark Ltd.)

Working Note for C:
The proportionate amount debited to Forfeiture A/c:
For 50 shares – share forfeiture amount debited is ₹ 250
∴ 30 shares-share forfeiture amount = ₹ \(\frac{30}{50} \times 250\) = ₹ 150
Out of this ₹ 30 used for re-issue of forfeited shares.
∴ Balance of Share Forfeiture A/c = ₹ 150 – ₹ 30 = ₹ 120.
