Rekha holds 100 shares of ₹10 each on which she has paid ₹1 per share on application. Sunita holds 200 shares of ₹10 each on which she has paid ₹1 and ₹2 per share on application and allotment respectively. Teena holds 300 shares of ₹10 each and has paid ₹1 on application, ₹2 on allotment, and ₹3 on first call. They all fail to pay their arrears and the second call of ₹2 per share. Their shares are forfeited and subsequently reissued at ₹11 per share, fully paid-up. Journalise the above.
Called-up per share = App ₹1 + Allotment ₹2 + First Call ₹3 + Second Call ₹2 = ₹8.
