  • Includes treasury shares.
  • Share capital is credited for the total par value of fully collected subscriptions.
  • Share capital is debited when issued shares are retired, redeemed, or cancelled by the corporation.
  • Example: Issued Share Capital = Php 15,000,000,000.00 (Maximum No. of Shares: Ordinary 1,895,000,000, Preferred 1,105,000,000, Par Value: Php 5.00).
