1. What is meant by over subscription of shares? What accounting treatment is given to the amount over subscribed?
Ans: Over subscription of shares means a situation where a company receives applications for more number of shares than the number of shares offered to the public for subscription. In such a case, the company cannot allot more shares than it has issued.
In case of over subscription, the company may adopt the following accounting treatment:
(i) Rejection of excess applications and refund of money: The company may reject some applications and return the application money to those applicants. The entry is:
Share Application A/c Dr.
To Bank A/c.
(ii) Adjustment of excess application money: The excess application money received from applicants may be adjusted towards the amount due on allotment. The entry is:
Share Application A/c Dr.
To Share Allotment A/c.
(iii) Calls-in-Advance: If authorised, the excess money may be retained as calls-in-advance to be adjusted against future calls.
The entry is:
Share Application A/c Dr.
To Calls-in-Advance A/c.
2. What is meant by ‘Shares Issued at Premium? State the purposes for which Premium amount can be utilised.
Ans: When a company issues its shares at a price higher than its face value, the shares are said to be issued at premium. The difference between the issue price and the face value is called premium. This amount is credited to Securities Premium Account and is considered a capital gain for the company.
According to the Companies Act, the amount of premium can be utilised for the following purposes:
(i) For issuing fully paid bonus shares.
(ii) For writing off preliminary expenses, discount on issue of shares and debentures, underwriting commission or expenses on issue.
(iii) For paying premium on redemption of preference shares or debentures.
(iv) For buy back of shares.
3. What is meant by issue of shares at discount? State the conditions to be fulfilled for the issue of shares at discount under the Companies Act.
Ans: When a company issues its shares at a price lower than its face value, the shares are said to be issued at discount. The difference between the face value and issue price is called discount. Discount on issue of shares is treated as a loss to the company.
The Companies Act has laid down the following conditions for issuing shares at discount:
(i) At least one year must have elapsed since the company commenced business.
(ii) The shares must be of a class already issued.
(iii) The issue must be authorised by passing a resolution in the general meeting and approved by the court.
(iv) The rate of discount should not exceed 10% of the face value unless special permission is obtained from the Central Government.
4. Explain in brief the terms:
(i) Calls-in Arrears.
Ans: Calls-in-arrears refers to the amount of allotment or call money which has been demanded by the company but has not been paid by the shareholders within the specified time. Such unpaid amount is treated as arrears and is transferred to Calls-in-Arrears Account. The company is authorised to charge interest on such arrears for the period of delay.
(ii) Calls-in Advance
Ans: Calls-in-advance refers to the amount received by the company from shareholders in advance before it is actually called. This amount is credited to Calls-in-Advance Account and is shown as a liability in the Balance Sheet until it is adjusted. The company may pay interest on such advance amount as per the prescribed rate.
