Question two
a) Briefly explain the meaning of each of the following as used in the accounting for
investments
1) Allotment of shares
When a company receives an application for shares issued by means of prospectus, it proceeds to
allot shares on predetermined basis (which is set out in the prospectus). Where applications
exceed the shares available, allotment is made proportionally, though often applications for
shares up to a stated number are accepted in full. The allotment of shares is made by means of a
letter of allotment. This entitles the recipient to a certificate for the number of shares stated in the
letter. His title may however depend on his paying the sum previously stated as due on allotment.
2) Redemption of shares
3) Forfeiture of share
When shares are allotted to an applicant, he and the company enter into a contract automatically.
Then such an applicant is bound to pay the allotment money and all the various call monies till the
shares are fully paid up. But if the shareholder fails to pay any of the calls (one or more) on the
authorization of the board of Directors, the said shares can be forfeited. Forfeiture essentially means
cancellation.
4) Bonus of shares
These shares are known as ‘Bonus Shares’. Such bonus shares are to be offered to the existing
shareholders in proportion to the shareholdings and dividend rights. Generally, the company
issues bonus shares out of profits and/or reserve to the existing shareholders. Since the
profit/reserve is being capitalized, it is also called capitalization of profit/reserve. As the
company cannot receive cash from the shareholders for the purpose of issuing bonus shares
This is new stock (share) issue offered to existing stockholders (shareholders) in proportion to
their current stock/shareholding, for a specified period and at a specified (usually discounted)
price. Its objective is to afford them the opportunity to maintain their percentage of ownership of
the firm. See also scrip issue. Also called rights offering.
