- A₹480
- B₹660
- C₹300
- D₹1,200
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's calculate the amount forfeited on the reissued shares:Rashidi's shares: * Allotted = 100 shares. Total cash received from him via application = ₹480.This entire ₹480 is the forfeited amount for his 100 shares (since no premium was collected from him, no subtraction is required).All 100 of his shares are reissued.Shantanu's shares:Total reissued = 150 shares. Since 100 belong to Rashidi, the remaining shares belong to Shantanu.Shantanu held 200 shares and paid Application (₹4) + Allotment (₹4, where ₹2 is premium).Forfeited amount per share for Shantanu = Total received excluding premium = .Forfeited amount for 50 reissued shares of Shantanu = .Total Forfeited Amount for the 150 reissued shares:
Discount allowed on reissue:Reissue price = ₹8 per share (Paid up value assumed = ₹10).Discount per share = .Total discount on 150 shares = .Transfer to Capital Reserve:
