Solution

Loss on Issue of Debentures is to be written off as ₹ 8,00,000 out of Securities Premium and ₹ 1,00,000 out of Statement of Profit and Loss.

Explanation:

Discount on issue (5%):

= 100 × 5%

= ₹ 5

Premium on redemption (10%):

= 100 × 10%

= ₹ 10

Total loss per debenture:

= 5 + 10

= ₹ 15

Total number of debentures = 60,000

Total Loss = 60,000 × 15

= ₹ 9,00,000

Securities Premium balance = ₹ 8,00,000

Remaining loss to be shifted to Statement of P/L

9,00,000 − 8,00,000

= 1,00,000
