The correct answer is Charge against profit

Key PointsDebentures:

• A debenture is a medium- to long-term loan instrument used by large firms to borrow money at a fixed rate of interest.
•  A debenture is thus like a certificate of loan or a loan bond, evidencing the company's liability to pay a specified amount with interest.
• Debenture holders do not have voting rights at the company's general meetings of shareholders, but they may convene separate meetings or votes, such as on amendments to the debentures' rights.
• In the company's financial statements, the interest paid to them is a charge against profit.

Important Points Difference Between Charge Against profit and Appropriation out of profit:

The correct answer is general reserve.

Sinking fund: 

• A sinking fund may be defined as a fund, created by a charge against or an appropriation of profits represented by specific investments, which is brought into existence for a specific purpose, such as replacement of an asset at the expiration of its life or the redemption of debentures.
• A sinking fund is a fund containing money set aside or saved to pay off a debt or bond.
• A company that issues debt will need to pay that debt off in the future, and the sinking fund helps to soften the hardship of a large outlay of revenue.
• A sinking fund is established so the company can contribute to the fund in the years leading up to the bond's maturity.

1. The balance of the Debentures Sinking Fund after redemption of debentures is transferred to the General Reserve account.
2. It is the amount which is kept separately out of redeemed amount from debentures, that is why it is transferred to the general reserve account.

Therefore, where all the debentures are redeemed, the balance left in the debenture sinking fund account is transferable to the General Reserve account.

The correct answer is ₹3,00,000

Important Points Solution:

Amount received on Application = Number of Shares Subscribed x Amount Per share on Application

Amount received on Application = 50,000 x 2 = ₹ 1,00,000

Amount received on Allotment = Number of Shares Subscribed x Amount Per share on Allotment

Amount received on Allotment = 50,000 x 7 = ₹ 3,50,000

 Amount Per share on First and Final Call = 10 + 5 - 2 - 7 = 6

Amount received on First and Final Call = Number of Shares Subscribed x Amount Per share on First and Final Call

Amount received on First and Final Call = 50,000 x  6 = ₹ 3,00,000

Hence, total amount received on first and final call by the company is ₹ 3,00,000

Key Points

• Where the total number of shares for which applications are received is less than the number of shares issued, it is a case of under subscription.
• If the actual applications received are more than the shares offered to the public it is a case of oversubscription.
• In the case of under subscription as the applications received are less than those required for minimum subscription, the company cannot proceed with allotment. The entire application money has to be refunded.
• If the subscription for shares is more than what is offered to the public the Board of Directors may make allotment in full to the required number of applicants and reject the other applications.
• Alternatively, they may allot shares proportionately to the applications received to all applicants which are known as pro-rata allotment.
• It is possible that they may resort to selective partial allotment by which the pro-rata allotment may be different for various ranges of share applications received. 

The correct answer is 2,800

Key Points Calls-in-arrears:

• "Calls-in-arrears" refers to an amount that has been called in respect of a share, but has not been paid before or on the specified date set for payment.
• The term "call in arrears" refers to any default in payment on a specified date.

Important Points Calculation of calls-in-arrears

For X holding 500 shares

X has not paid the first call and final call amount

Therefore,

 Call is arrears = (Number of shares held by X) x (Per share first call rate + Per share final call rate)

 Call is arrears = 500 x (2 + 2) = Rs. 2000

For Y holding 400 shares

Y has not paid only final call amount

Therefore,

 Call is arrears = (Number of shares held by Y) x (Per share final call rate)

 Call is arrears = 400 x 2 = Rs. 800

Total Amount of calls in arrears = 2000 + 800 = 2800.

Additional Information Journal entry for call money in arrears

  Calls-in-Arrear A/c                 Dr.

• The person ceases to be a shareholder of the company after the shares are forfeited.
• On forfeiture, the amount so far paid by the shareholder is forfeited which is a gain to the company and is credited to forfeited shares account. 
• Forfeited shares account is shown under share capital as a separate head in the Note to Accounts to the balance sheet.
