Answer 1

₹25

Explanation:

Subscribed Capital
Subscribed Capital = ₹80,00,000
Nominal value per share = ₹100
Total number of subscribed shares = 80,00,000 ÷ 100
= 80,000 shares

Final Call Situation
Final call was paid on 77,500 shares
Therefore, 2,500 shares did not pay the final call (80,000 – 77,500 = 2,500 shares).

Calls in Arrear
Balance in Calls in Arrear = ₹62,500
This arrear relates to 2,500 shares.
So, Final Call per share = 62,500 ÷ 2,500 
= ₹25 per share
