Options:

₹5,00,000

₹3,00,000

₹2,00,000

Correct Answer:

₹3,00,000

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3- ₹3,00,000.

1. Analysis of Equity Share Capital:

  • Opening Balance (2021): ₹10,00,000

  • Closing Balance (2022): ₹15,00,000

  • Increase in Capital: ₹5,00,000

  • Adjustment (Bonus Shares): The company issued bonus shares in the ratio of 2:1 (existing : new). This means for every 2 shares held, 1 new share was issued.

    • Bonus Amount = ₹10,00,000 × (1/2) = ₹5,00,000.

  • Cash Flow Impact: Bonus shares are issued by capitalizing reserves. They are non-cash transactions. Therefore, the ₹5,00,000 increase in equity involves zero cash inflow.

2. Analysis of 10% Debentures:

  • Opening Balance (2021): ₹2,00,000

  • Closing Balance (2022): ₹5,00,000

  • Increase in Debentures: ₹5,00,000 - ₹2,00,000 = ₹3,00,000.

  • Cash Flow Impact: An increase in debentures indicates that new debentures were issued, resulting in a cash inflow of ₹3,00,000.

3. Summary of Financing Activities:

  • Proceeds from Issue of Equity Shares: ₹0 (Entirely Bonus)

  • Proceeds from Issue of 10% Debentures: +₹3,00,000

  • Net Cash Flow from Financing Activity: ₹3,00,000
