Working Notes:

WN 1:

An amount payable in instalments on shares
On Application = Rs 2
On Allotment (including discount) = Rs 3 + Rs 0.80 (8% of  Rs 10)
On First and Final Call = Rs 4.20 (10 – 2-3.80)

WN2:
Calculation of amount transferred to Capital Reserve
Out of the forfeited shares of Shyam, only 500 shares were reissued

The proportionate amount credited in Share Forfeiture Account on 500 shares = `3200/1600 xx 500 = 1000`

Amount debited in Share Forfeiture Account on 500 shares = `100(400/2000xx 500)`

Amount debited in share Forfeiture Account on 1500 shares = `300(400/2000) xx 1500`

Thus, amount transferred to Capital Reserve Account

On Shyam’s Shares = `Rs (1000 - 100) = 900`

On Ram’s Shares  = Rs (7500 - 300) = 7200

Total  = 8100
