Question : 6000 shares of Rs. 100 each forfeited due to nonpayment of allotment of Rs. 40 per share and first & final call of Rs. 30 per share. Out of the forfeited shares, 4500 shares were reissued at Rs. 80 per share fully paid. Which of the following amount of share forfeiture account will be transferred to Capital Reserve Account?
Option 1: Rs 1,80,000
Option 2: Rs 45,000
Option 3: Rs 6,60,000
Option 4: Rs 2,70,000
Correct Answer: Rs 45,000
Solution : Answer = Rs 45,000
Number of shares Re-issued = (4500 shares)
Amount received at the time of forfeiture = (4500 shares x 30) = 1,35,000
Less amount of forfeited (debited) at the time of re-issue = 90,000
(4500 share x 20)
Capital Reserve = 45000
Hence, the correct option is 2.
