Answers for flthe questions =
1. Book value of ordinary shares :-
= 80000 × 60 = 4800000
Book value of ordinary shares = 4800000
2. Book value of 10% preference shares
= 30000 × 90 = 2700000
Book value of 10% preference shares = 2700000
3. Book value of 12% preference shares :-
= 20000 × 250 = 5000000
Book value of 12% preference shares = 5000000
4. Dividend distributed to ordinary shares:- payment of dividend distributed to ordinary shares to be declared by the organisation in annual general meeting. in the question there is no information regarding the declaration of dividend to the ordinary shares, hence we cannot provide accurate answer to this question.
5. Dividend distributed to 10% preference shares
= 2700000 × 10% × 3 years = 810000
Dividend distributed to 10% preference shares = 810000
6. Dividend distributed to 12% preference shares = 5000000 × 12% × 3 years = 1800000
Dividend distributed to 12% preference shares = 1800000
7. Total balance of ordinary shares = 4800000
8. Total balance of 10% preference shares =

Total balance of 10% preference shares = 3510000
9. Total balance of 12% preference shares =
= 5000000 + 0 = 5000000
Total balance of 12% preference shares = 5000000 (these rates are non cumulative shares so the arrears in dividends does not accumulate)
10. Balance of participation = balance of 10% preference shares (capital but not arrears in dividends) + balance of 12% preference shares (capital but not arrears in dividends)
= 2700000 + 5000000 = 7700000
Balance of participation = 7700000
