Contingent liability:

Preference Dividends in arrears Rs.66,000.

The Board of Directors of the company decided upon the following scheme of reconstruction:

– The preference shares are to be converted into 13% unsecured debentures of `100 each in regard to 80% of the dues (including arrears of dividend) and for the balance equity shares of `50 paid-up would be issued. The authorized capital of the company permitted the issue of additional shares.

– Equity shares would be reduced to shares of `50 each paid-up.

– All equity holders agree to pay the balance in cash.

– Goodwill has lost its value and is to be written off fully. Investments are to reflect their market value of
Rs.30,000. Obsolete items in stock of `50,000 are to be written off. Bad debts to the extent of 5% of the total debtors would be provided for. Fixed assets to be written down by Rs.1,50,000.

– The scheme was duly approved and put into effect.

The Company carried on trading for six months and after writing off depreciation at 20% p.a. on the revised value of fixed assets, made a net profit of `80,000. The half-yearly working resulted in an increase of Sundry Debtors by Rs.60,000, Stock by Rs.80,000 and cash byRs.40,000.
