Applications received for 12,500 shares. The company decided to reject 2,500 shares. After receiving allotment money, What will be the Bank balance of the company?

Options:

₹70,000

₹40,000

₹50,000

₹1,00,000

Correct Answer:

₹70,000

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 1- ₹70,000.

Number of shares issued = 10,000
Face value per share = ₹10
Application money per share= ₹4
Allotment money per share:  ₹3

Applications received = 12,500
Shares rejected = 12,500 - 10,000
                       = 2,500

Upto allotment ₹7 is received on 10,000 shares.

Bank balance = 10000 shares x 7
                    = ₹70000
