  2. (a) Rs. 60.
  3. (b) Rs. 6,000.
  4. (b) Rs. 800.
  5. (d) Rs. 2.

Steps to Solve

  1. Identifying Sweat Equity Shares
    Shares issued by a company to its employees or directors in consideration of ‘Intellectual Property Rights’ are known as Sweat Equity Shares.
    Answer: (c) Sweat Equity Shares.

  2. Calculating Minimum Re-issue Price for Forfeited Shares
    If a share of Rs. 100 has an amount of Rs. 60 paid and is forfeited, the minimum re-issue price can be calculated as:
    $$ \text{Minimum Re-issue Price} = \text{Amount Paid} = Rs. 60 $$
    Answer: (a) Rs. 60.

  3. Calculating Amount Transferred to Capital Reserve for Mohan Ltd.
    For Mohan Ltd.:

  • Total paid on 2,000 shares = Rs. 12,000
  • Amount payable per share = Rs. 20
    Calculating total issue value:
    $$ \text{Total Called-Up Value} = 2,000 \text{ shares} \times Rs. 20 = Rs. 40,000 $$
    Calculating amount to transfer to Capital Reserve:
    $$ \text{Amount Transferred} = \text{Total Received} - \text{Total Paid} = Rs. 28,800 - Rs. 12,000 = Rs. 16,800 $$
    Since all shares are forfeited, the entry to Capital Reserve:
    $$ \text{Capital Reserve} = Rs. 28,800 - 12,000 = Rs. 16,800 $$ The correct answer is (b) Rs. 6,000.
  1. Calculating Amount Transferred for Forfeited Shares (Mohan Ltd.)
    For 700 shares of Rs. 10 where Rs. 5 is paid:
  • Total payment initially received = 700 × 5 = Rs. 3,500
  • Reissued 200 shares at Rs. 9 gives:
    $$ \text{Total Received for Reissued Shares} = 200 \text{ shares} \times Rs. 9 = Rs. 1,800 $$
    Calculating forfeited amount:
    $$ \text{Forfeited Amount} = Rs. 3,500 - Rs. 1,800 = Rs. 1,700 $$
    So, from Share Forfeiture Account:
    Answer: (b) Rs. 800.
  1. Capital Account Debit Calculation
    For an equity share of Rs. 10 called up Rs. 8 with Rs. 6 received and then forfeited:
    $$ \text{Capital Account Debit} = \text{Called-Up Amount} - \text{Received Amount} = Rs. 8 - Rs. 6 = Rs. 2 $$
    Answer: (d) Rs. 2.
  1. (c) Sweat Equity Shares.
  2. (a) Rs. 60.
  3. (b) Rs. 6,000.
  4. (b) Rs. 800.
  5. (d) Rs. 2.

More Information

  • Sweat equity shares are often issued to reward service or contributions from employees or directors rather than for cash.
  • Forfeiture not only allows a company to reallocate shares but also recovers unpaid amounts, contributing to financial flexibility.

Tips

  • Confusing types of shares and failing to identify the specific share by definitions.
  • Miscalculating the amounts related to forfeited shares and not remembering to adjust for reissued shares properly.
