Question

Why the Expenses on Issue of Shares (Unwritten off) showed in Non Current Assets? Explain the meaning of Unwritten Off?​

Answer 1

ANSWER

When Shares are issued at a price lower than their face value, they are said to have been issued at a discount. For example, if a share of Rs 100 is issued at Rs 95, then Rs 5 (i.e. Rs 100—95) is the amount of discount. It is a loss to the company. It should be noted that the issue of share below the market price but above face value is not termed as ‘Issue of Share at Discount’ Issue of Share at Discount is always below the nominal value of shares. It is debited to separate account called ‘Discount on Issue of Share’ Account.
