After having paid Rs 6 (including Rs 2 premium), he did rot pay allotment money of Rs 2 (including Re 1 premium) and on his subsequent failure to pay the first call of Rs 3 (including Re 1 premium) his shares were forfeited. The amount to be credited to Forfeited Shares Account is _______.
    Solution

    Forfeiture amount per share is the amount to be received by the company on forfeiture of each share.

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount\quad=Application\quad per\quad share$$

    Substitute the values in the above equation

    Forfeiture amount is the money received by the company on forfeiture (cancellation of share) or on the reissue of share.

    $$Total\quad share\quad forfeiture\quad Amount\quad =\quad Shares\quad forfeited\quad \times \quad Forfeiture\quad amount\quad$$ 

    Substitute values in the above equation

    $$Total\quad share\quad forfeiture\quad Amount\quad =\quad 48shares\times Rs6\\ \quad =Rs288\quad \quad$$ 

    Thus, the amount to be credited to share forfeiture account is $$Rs288$$ while shares are being forfeited or canceled.

    Solution

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount=Application\quad Amount\quad +\quad Allotment\quad Amount$$

    Substitute the values in above equation

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount=Rs5$$

    Forfeiture amount is the money received by company on forfeiture (cancellation of share) or on the reissue of share.

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount= No.\quad of\quad shares \times Forfeiture\quad Amount$$ 

    Substitute the values in the above equation

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount=100shares \times Rs5= Rs500$$

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount\quad for\quad 70shares=70shares \times Rs5=Rs350$$

    $$Forfeiture\quad Amount\quad on\quad reissue=\quad 7shares\times  Rs0\quad = Rs0\\ $$

     Profit on the reissue is the profit earned by the company when the forfeited shares are reissued

    $$Profit\quad on\quad reissue=Forfeited\quad Amount\quad on\quad forfeiture\quad -\quad Forfeited\quad Amount\quad on\quad Reissue$$

    Substitute the values in the above equation

    $$Profit\quad on\quad reissue=Rs350-Rs0 = Rs350$$

    $$Forfeiture\quad amount\quad on\quad reissue=100shares \times Rs10=Rs1000$$

     Profit on the reissue is the profit earned by the company when the forfeited shares are reissued

    $$Profit\quad on\quad reissue=Forfeited\quad Amount\quad on\quad forfeiture$$
