Record necessary journal entries
Answer:




Working Note

3. Number of shares allotted to Ashmita

4. Profit on the forfeiture of 600 share of Rohit  = ₹ 30.000 (18,000 x \(\frac{600}{800}\) x 36,000)
Profit on the forfeiture of 600 share of Ashmita = 36,000
Profit on forfeiture of 1200 shares (30,600 + 36,000) = 66,000
Less: Loss on reissue of shares = 18,000
Transfer to Capital Reserve = 48,000
Balance in Share forfeiture Account (48,000 – 36,000) = ₹ 12,000
