Correct Answer: Security Premium Account


Solution : Security Premium Reserve is the additional amount charged on the face value of any share of the company when the shares are issued, redeemed, and forfeited.
The following will be the journal entries:

Vendor A/c                                                Dr.                  1,50,000
To Equity Share Capital A/c                                                          1,25,000
To Securities Premium Account A/c                                                 25,000
(Being equity shares are issued to the vendor in consideration other than cash)

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
