FAQs on Important Questions & Answers: Accounting for Bonus Issue & Right Issue - Principles and Practice of Accounting - CA Foundation

1. What is a bonus issue in accounting?
Ans. A bonus issue, also known as a scrip issue or capitalization issue, is a method used by companies to issue additional shares to their existing shareholders without receiving any additional payment. This is typically done by capitalizing the company's profits or reserves and converting them into additional shares. The purpose of a bonus issue is to increase the liquidity of the company's shares and make them more affordable for small investors.
2. How does a bonus issue affect the financial statements of a company?
Ans. A bonus issue does not have any direct impact on the financial statements of a company. The number of shares issued increases, but the company's total equity remains the same because no cash is received in exchange for the additional shares. However, the bonus issue may impact the per-share earnings, as the earnings will be distributed among a larger number of shares after the bonus issue.
3. What is a right issue in accounting?
Ans. A right issue is a way for companies to raise additional capital by offering their existing shareholders the right to purchase new shares at a discounted price. This allows shareholders to buy additional shares in proportion to their existing holdings. The purpose of a right issue is to provide existing shareholders with the opportunity to maintain their proportional ownership in the company and raise funds for the company's expansion or debt repayment.
4. How does a right issue affect the financial statements of a company?
Ans. A right issue affects the financial statements of a company in multiple ways. Firstly, the company's equity increases as new capital is raised through the issue of additional shares. Secondly, the company's cash balance increases as shareholders exercise their right to purchase the new shares. Additionally, the number of shares outstanding increases, which may impact the per-share earnings and other financial ratios.
5. What are the accounting entries for a bonus issue and a right issue?
Ans. For a bonus issue, the accounting entries involve transferring the appropriate amount from the company's profits or reserves to the share capital or share premium account. This increases the number of shares outstanding without affecting the company's total equity. For a right issue, the accounting entries include recording the cash received from shareholders in the cash account and increasing the share capital and share premium accounts by the amount of capital raised. The number of shares outstanding also increases based on the shares subscribed by shareholders.
