A company has 500 shares of Rs.25 each. If Rs.15 is paid-up for each share, then what is the paid-up capital? Also, find the amount to be paid in the second investment.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Paid-up amount per share = Rs.15
Number of shares = 500
`therefore "Paid-up capital"="Rs."(500xx15)="Rs."7500`
Total capital of the company = Rs.`(500xx25)="Rs."12,500`
`therefore "Amount to be paid in the second instalment "="Rs."(12,500-7500)="Rs."5000.`
