Working Notes:
(1) Profit on \(200\) shares = \(\text{Rs. } 600\)
Hence, Profit on \(100\) shares = \(\frac{600 \times 100}{200} = \text{Rs. } 300\)
Less: Discount on reissue = \(100 \text{ shares} \times \text{Rs. } 2 = \text{Rs. } 200\)
Profit on reissue transferred to Capital Reserve = \(\text{Rs. } 100\)

(2) Profit on \(600\) shares = \(\text{Rs. } 3,000\)
Hence, Profit on \(200\) shares = \(\frac{3,000 \times 200}{600} = \text{Rs. } 1,000\)
Less: Discount on reissue = \(200 \text{ shares} \times \text{Rs. } 1 = \text{Rs. } 200\)
Profit on reissue transferred to Capital Reserve = \(\text{Rs. } 800\)

Question. VaibhaV Ltd. issued \(\text{Rs. } 5,00,000\) new capital divided into \(\text{Rs. } 50\) per share at a premium of \(\text{Rs. } 10\), payable as under:
on Applicatin - \(\text{Rs. } 5\) per share
On Allotment - \(\text{Rs. } 20\) per share (including premium of \(\text{Rs. } 5\) per share)
On First and Final Call - \(\text{Rs. } 35\) per share (including premium of \(\text{Rs. } 5\) per share)
Overpayments on application were to be applied towards sums due on allotment and first and final call. Where no allotment was made, money was to be refunded in full.
The issue was oversubscribed to the extent of \(13,000\) shares. Applicants for \(12,000\) shares were allotted only \(2,000\) shares and applicants for \(3,000\) shares were sent letters of regret. Shares were allotted in full to the remaining applicants. All the money due was duly received.
(i) Which value has been affected by rejecting the applications of the applicants who had applied for \(3,00,000\) [sic: \(3,000\)] shares?
(ii) Suggest a better alternative for the same.
(iii) Give journal entries to record the above transactions (including cash transactions) in the books of the company.

Answer:
(i) Value of equality has been affected by rejecting the applications of the retail investors from getting shares of the company.

(ii) The better alternative could have been to allot the shares proportionately to all the applicants so that such applicants may not be demotivated from investing in the capital of big companies in future.

Working Notes :
1. Total amount received on application = \(\text{Rs. } 5 \times 23,000 = \text{Rs. } 1,15,000\)
2. Pro-rata category = applied (\(12,000\)): Allotted (\(2,000\)) = \(6 : 1\)
    Money received on applications = \(12,000 \times \text{Rs. } 5 = \text{Rs. } 60,000\)
    Money required on applications = \(2,000 \times \text{Rs. } 5 = \text{Rs. } 10,000\)
    Excess money received on application = \(\text{Rs. } 50,000\)
    Money required on allotment = \(2,000 \times \text{Rs. } 20 = \text{Rs. } 40,000\)
So, entire amount due on allotment is already received. Excess of \(\text{Rs. } 10,000\) is transferred to calls-in-advance.

Working Notes:
Calculation of amount not paid by Rohit on allotment:
(a) Number of shares applied by Rohit:
\(400 \text{ shares allotted to applicants for } \frac{24,000}{20,000} \times 400 = 480 \text{ shares}\)
(b) Rohit paid only application money @ \(\text{Rs. } 4\) on \(480\) shares = \(\text{Rs. } 1,920\)
Less: Application money due on shares allotted (\(400 \times \text{Rs. } 4\)) = \(\text{Rs. } 1,600\)
Excess application money adjusted = \(\text{Rs. } 320\)
(c) Allotment money due on \(400\) shares @ \(\text{Rs. } 10\) = \(\text{Rs. } 4,000\)
Less: Excess money transferred from Share Application A/c (b) = \(\text{Rs. } 320\)
Amount not paid by Rohit on allotment = \(\text{Rs. } 3,680\)

2. Allotment money received = \(\text{Rs. } 2,00,000 - \text{Rs. } 16,000 - \text{Rs. } 3,680 = \text{Rs. } 1,80,320\)

3. It has been assumed that the entire excess of \(\text{Rs. } 320\) is exclusively for share capital and hence credited to share Forfeited Account.

4. The amount of \(\text{Rs. } 4,320\) transferred from Share Forfeited Account to Capital Reserve has been calculated as:
- Amount relating to shares of Rohit (\(480 \times \text{Rs. } 4\)): \(\text{Rs. } 1,920\)
  Less: Discount allowed on reissue (\(400 \times \text{Rs. } 2\)): \(\text{Rs. } 800 \rightarrow \text{Rs. } 1,120\)
- Amount relating to shares of Mohit (\(400 \times \text{Rs. } 10\)): \(\text{Rs. } 4,000\)
  Less: Discount allowed on reissue of \(400\) shares: \(\text{Rs. } 800 \rightarrow \text{Rs. } 3,200\)
Total: \(\text{Rs. } 4,320\)
