Answers
Answer:
Forfeiture amount per share is the amount to be received by the company on forfeiture of each share.
ForfeitureAmount=ApplicationAmount
Substitute the values in above equation
ForfeitureAmount=Rs30
Forfeiture amount is the money received by company on forfeiture (cancellation of share) or on the reissue of share.
ForfeitureAmount=No.ofshares×ForfeitureAmount
Substitute the values in the above equation
ForfeitureAmount=50shares×Rs30=Rs1,500
ForfeitureAmountfor20shares=20shares×Rs30=Rs600.
Profit on the reissue is the profit earned by the company when the forfeited shares are reissued
Profitonreissue=ForfeitedAmountonforfeiture
Substitute the values in the above equation
Profitonreissue=Rs600−Rs0=Rs600
Hence, the profit earned on the reissue of shares is Rs 600.
