Detailed Solution for Test: Issue, Forfeiture And Reissue Of Shares - 1 - Question 24

The correct answer is Capital Reserve account.

Capital Reserve Account:
- Capital reserves are created from profits that are not intended for distribution as dividends to shareholders. They are created to strengthen the financial position of the company and to meet future contingencies or unforeseen situations.
- In this case, the company is receiving net assets of Rs. 1,20,000 in exchange for fully-paid shares of Rs. 1,00,000. This means that the company has gained Rs. 20,000 in value from the transaction.
- Since this gain is not a part of the company's normal operating activities, it cannot be credited to the Profit and Loss account. Similarly, it is not a payment made to the vendor, so it cannot be credited to the Vendor's account. And it doesn't represent the value of intangible assets like a company's reputation or brand, so it cannot be credited to the Goodwill account.
- Instead, the Rs. 20,000 gain is a capital reserve, which is created to strengthen the company's financial position. It can be used in the future for purposes such as expansion, payment of dividends, or to meet any other contingencies that may arise.

So, the balance of Rs. 20,000 will be credited to the Capital Reserve account.
