NEB 12 Accounts Share Chapter, Debenture Chapter Theory and OLD is Gold Full Solutions
SECTION 1: CONCEPTUAL BREAKDOWN OF SHARES
In the NEB Accounting curriculum, the Issue of Shares is a high-yield chapter. At FEEN, we define a share as the smallest unit of ownership in a company's total capital. When you buy a share, you are essentially buying a piece of the business.
1. Understanding the Hierarchy of Capital
To solve the "Old is Gold" problems, you must understand how capital is classified in the books of accounts:
| Capital Type | Core Meaning | Exam Note |
|---|---|---|
| Authorized Capital | The maximum amount a company can raise. | Also called Nominal or Registered Capital. |
| Issued Capital | The part of Authorized Capital offered to public. | Cannot exceed Authorized Capital. |
| Subscribed Capital | The part of Issued Capital people applied for. | Basis for the Application Money entry. |
| Called-up Capital | The amount the company has asked to pay. | Crucial for calculating "Calls in Arrears." |
| Paid-up Capital | The actual cash received in the bank. | Final figure shown in the Balance Sheet. |
2. Methods of Issuing Shares
A company can issue shares in three ways, and each has a different accounting treatment at FEEN:
- At Par: Issued at Face Value (e.g., Rs. 100 share for Rs. 100).
- At Premium: Issued above Face Value (e.g., Rs. 100 share for Rs. 110). The extra Rs. 10 is a gain.
- At Discount: Issued below Face Value (e.g., Rs. 100 share for Rs. 90). The Rs. 10 difference is a loss.
3. The Installation Journey
Most companies collect money in stages. As a FEEN student, you must master the sequence: Application → Allotment → First Call → Final Call. Each stage requires two journal entries: one for the "Due" amount and one for the "Receipt" of cash.
FEEN: ACCOUNTING JOURNAL PROTOCOL
Focus Edge Education Network - Section 2
1. The Share Application Stage
At this stage, the company first receives the money. We do not know who will be allotted shares yet, so we keep the money in a temporary 'Application' account.
| Particulars | L.F. | Debit (Rs) | Credit (Rs) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bank A/c ...................................................... Dr. To Share Application A/c (Being application money received) |
XXX | ||
| Share Application A/c ............................... Dr. To Share Capital A/c (Being application money transferred to capital) |
XXX | XXX |
2. The Allotment Stage (The Premium & Discount Zone)
In NEB exams, Premium or Discount is almost always adjusted during Allotment. At FEEN, we teach you to record the 'Due' entry with the adjustment first.
| Scenario: Issue at Premium | Debit | Credit |
|---|---|---|
| Share Allotment A/c ............................... Dr. To Share Capital A/c (Face Value) To Securities Premium A/c (Extra) (Being allotment money due with premium) |
Total | Value Extra |
SECTION 3: PRO-RATA & ADJUSTMENTS
When you encounter Over-subscription, the most critical step is calculating the Excess Application Money. This money isn't just "extra cash"—it's a prepayment for the next stage (Allotment).
1. The FEEN Working Note Table
In your exam, use this table to avoid calculation errors. This is the Full Flex Solution format:
| Category | Applied Shares | Allotted Shares | App. Money Received | App. Money Req. | Excess Money | Adjusted to Allotment | Refund |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group A | 10,000 | 10,000 | Rs. 20,000 | Rs. 20,000 | - | - | - |
| Group B (Pro-rata) | 15,000 | 10,000 | Rs. 30,000 | Rs. 20,000 | Rs. 10,000 | Rs. 10,000 | - |
| Group C (Rejected) | 2,000 | Nil | Rs. 4,000 | - | Rs. 4,000 | - | Rs. 4,000 |
1. Excess Money = (Applied Shares - Allotted Shares) × Application Rate.
2. Amount Due on Allotment = (Allotted Shares × Allotment Rate) - Excess Adjusted.
2. Accounting for the Excess
The entry to transfer application money changes when pro-rata is involved:
To Share Capital A/c (Actual Allotted)
To Share Allotment A/c (Excess Adjusted)
To Bank A/c (Amount Refunded)
SECTION 4: FORFEITURE OF SHARES
Forfeiture is the ultimate penalty. When a shareholder fails to meet their financial obligation, the company takes back the shares and keeps the money already paid. At FEEN, we simplify the complex journal entry for this process.
Scenario 1: Shares originally issued at PARTo Share Forfeiture A/c (Amount ALREADY Paid)
To Share Allotment A/c (Unpaid Amount)
To Share Call A/c (Unpaid Amount)
/* Being shares forfeited for non-payment */
This is where students get confused. FEEN Rule: If the premium was ALREADY received, ignore it. If the premium was NOT received, you must debit it during forfeiture.
Securities Premium A/c ............... Dr. (Unpaid Premium)
To Share Forfeiture A/c (Amount Paid excluding premium)
To Calls in Arrears A/c (Total Unpaid)
| Term | Meaning in Forfeiture |
|---|---|
| Called-up | Amount demanded by the company. |
| Forfeiture A/c | Profit for the company (seized money). |
| Arrears | The "bad debt" we are closing. |

SECTION 5: RE-ISSUE & CAPITAL RESERVE
Once shares are forfeited, the company effectively "owns" the money the previous shareholder paid. When these shares are sold again, we need to finalize the profit. At FEEN, we break this into two final steps.
1. Journal Entry for Re-issue
If the shares are re-issued at a discount, we use the Share Forfeiture A/c to cover that loss.
Share Forfeiture A/c .............. Dr. (Discount Allowed)
To Share Capital A/c (Face Value)
2. Transfer to Capital Reserve
This is the final "Net Profit" from the whole forfeiture and re-issue cycle. It is a mandatory entry in every NEB long question.
To Capital Reserve A/c
(Being balance of forfeiture account transferred to capital reserve)
Capital Reserve = (Total Amount Forfeited) - (Discount on Re-issue)
*Note: If only a part of forfeited shares are re-issued, you must calculate the proportional forfeiture amount first!
Congratulations! You have completed the FEEN Theoretical Foundation for Share Capital. You are now equipped with the knowledge of Par, Premium, Discount, Pro-rata, Forfeiture, and Re-issue.

Formula: (Total Allotted / Total Applied) * Applied by person

Arrears Note: The 200 shares owner owed Rs. 8,000 on allotment, but he had already paid Rs. 3,000 extra during application. So, actual arrears = Rs. 5,000.
SECTION 10: NEB 2075 SOLUTIONS
1. Shares Allotted to Defaulter = 400
2. Shares Applied by him = (15,000/10,000) * 400 = 600
3. Excess paid on App. = (600 - 400) * 30 = Rs. 6,000
4. Total Allotment Due = 400 * 40 = Rs. 16,000
5. Actual Allotment Arrears = 16,000 - 6,000 = Rs. 10,000

SECTION 11: THE EXAM SURVIVAL GUIDE
The Pro-rata Short-cut: When calculating Amount Received on Allotment, always use this FEEN sequence:
(Total Allotted × Allotment Rate) - Total Excess from Application - Arrears.
Never try to calculate individual categories in the journal; do it in the working note first!
The Forfeiture Calculation: In the Share Forfeiture Account (Credit), you only record the money the company ACTUALLY KEPT. This excludes any premium that was already received. If a share is Rs. 100 and the person paid Rs. 40, the forfeiture is Rs. 40. Simple.
The Capital Reserve Trap: If the company forfeits 1,000 shares but only re-issues 600 shares, you cannot transfer the whole balance to Capital Reserve.
Formula: (Total Forfeited Amount / Forfeited Shares) × Re-issued Shares - Re-issue Discount.
Time Management: The "Issue of Shares" long question should take you exactly 12-15 minutes. Spend 5 minutes on the Pro-rata table and 10 minutes on Journals. If your table is correct, the journals will flow naturally.

Discount on reissue = 150 * 10 = 1,500.

SHARES FOR OTHER THAN CASH (THEORY)
At FEEN, we simplify this chapter into two easy steps. When a company buys an asset and pays with shares, it is effectively a "barter" system in the corporate world.
Step 1: Purchase of Assets
To Vendor's A/c
(Being assets purchased from vendor)
Step 2: Issue of Shares (At Par)
To Share Capital A/c
(Being shares issued to vendor)
No. of Shares = Purchase Consideration / Issue Price

At FEEN, we simplify the "Business Takeover" logic. You are simply recording what comes in (Assets) and what goes out (Liabilities + Shares).
