पर्याय

• ₹4,000

• ₹10,400

• ₹20,000

• ₹13,600

Answer 1

₹10,400

Explanation:

Shares applied by Vidya `= 3200xx100000/80000 = 4000`

Excess Application money received = 4,000 − 3,200 = 800 Shares × ₹5 = ₹4,000

Allotment money due from Vidya = 3,200 × ₹7	22,400
Less: Excess received on application	(4,000)
Allotment money not received	18,400
