Notes:
1. If Cash Book entries are asked, cash and bank transactions are to be recorded in Cash Book and non-cash transactions in the Journal.
2. This is a case of undersubscription, that is, applications have been received for 90,000 shares as against the offer for 1,00,000 shares to the public. Therefore, Share Capital Account will be credited every time with 90,000 shares multiplied by the amount due on each instalment.
