Question : If a share of Rs.100 on which Rs.60 has been paid, is forfeited, it can be reissued at a minimum price of:
Option 1: Rs.60
Option 2: Rs.140
Option 3: Rs.100
Option 4: Rs.40
Correct Answer: Rs.40
Solution : The re-issue price of forfeited shares must be at least equal to the difference between the paid-up value of re-issued shares and the amount forfeited on the re-issue of shares. In other words, the re-issue price must not be less than the amount unpaid on forfeited shares i.e. Rs.100 - Rs.60 = Rs.40.
Hence the correct answer is option 4.
