Solution
Shares are forfeited on which ₹ 10,000 is not received towards Securities Premium Account.
Explanation:
Because when Securities Premium has not been received on forfeited shares, the unpaid premium amount is debited to the Securities Premium Account.
A credit balance of ₹ 40,000 represents the amount received on the forfeited shares.
A debit of ₹ 20,000 with the remaining balance carried forward indicates that some of the forfeited shares have been reissued.
The transfer of ₹ 5,000 to Capital Reserve Account represents the profit earned on the reissue of forfeited shares.
