Solution

(i) Given:

Shares allotted = 80,000

Ratio of application to allotment = 3 : 2

Using the ratio:

`3/2 = x/(80,000)`

`x = 80,000 xx 3/2`

= 1,20,000 shares

(ii) Total amount received on share application = ₹ 4,80,000

Number of shares applied: 1,20,000

= `(4,80,000)/(1,20,000)`

= ₹ 4

(iii) ₹ 1

(iv) ₹ 2,34,000

(v) (a)
