Solution
Calls in Arrears will be ₹36,000.
Explanation:
Total shares on which ₹8 per share was called = 3,70,000
Zia did not pay the first call of ₹3 on 5,000 shares.
Suman also did not pay the first call of ₹3 on 7,000 shares.
Calls in Arrears = (7,000 shares × ₹3) + (5,000 shares × ₹3)
Calls in Arrears = ₹21,000 + ₹15,000
= ₹36,000
