Applications were received for 40,000 shares and pro-rates allotment was made on the application for 35,000 share. Excess application money was utilised towards allotment. Rohan to whom 600 shares were allotted failed to pay the allotment money and his shares were forfeited immediately after allotment. Aman who applied for 1,050 shares failed to pay first call and his shares were forfeited immediately after first call. Second and final call was made. All the money due on second call have been received. Of the shares forfeited 1,000 shares were reissued as fully paid-up for 80 per share, which include the whole of Aman's shares. Answer the question on the basis of the information given. |

₹16,000 ₹22,000 ₹14,000 ₹28,000 |
₹22,000 |
The correct answer is option 2- ₹22,000. Allotted shares to Rohan = 600 Excess money received on application = 100 x 40 Money due on allotment = 600 x 30 Balance sheet due on allotment = 18,000 - 4,000 Amount received from Rohan = 700 x 40 Journal entry on forfeiture- Share Capital A/c Dr. ₹30,000 ( Calledup amount- 600 x 50) Thus amount forfeited is ₹22,000. * Amount received on premium on application = 600 x 10 |
