Application received for 25,000 shares. Company decided to allot them as follows
i. 10,000 - Full
ii. 10,000 - Pro rata
iii. 5,000 - Rejected

The amount adjusted to the share allotment account after receiving the application money, will be..............

₹10,000

The correct answer is option 2- ₹10,000.

Application money received = 25,000 x 2
                                            = 50,000
Share capital needed at application time = 15,000 x 2
                                                                = 30,000
Refund = 5,000 x 2
            = 10,000

Excess money adjusted against allotment
Money adjusted on Share Allotment =  50,000 - 30,000- 10,000
                                                         = 10,000
