Question : Sudha Ltd. forfeited 800 shares of Rs. 10 each issued at 10% premium to Shayam (Rs. 9 called up) on which he did not pay Rs. 3 of allotment (including premium) and first call of Rs. 2. Out of these, 600 shares were re-issued to Ram as fully paid for Rs. 9 per share. What is the amount to be transferred to the capital reserve?
Option 1: Rs. 2,400
Option 2: Rs. 1,800
Option 3: Rs. 3,000
Option 4: Rs. 3,600
Correct Answer: Rs. 2,400
Solution : Answer = Rs. 2,400
Share forfeiture account credited by Rs. 600 x 5= Rs. 3,000.
Share forfeiture account debited by Rs. 600 x 1=Rs 600.
The amount transferred to capital Reserve = Rs.2,400.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
