Question 8: Describe the steps for creating Sinking Fund for redemption of debentures.
Answer: The various steps involved in the creation of Sinking Fund for redemption of debentures can be better understood by the help of the example explained below.
A Company issued 10% Debentures of Rs 5,00,000 for 3 years. The investment is expected to earn 6% p.a. The Sinking Fund table shows that 0.31411 invested annually at 6% amount to Rs 1 in 3 years.
Step 1: Calculate the amount of instalment to be required every year for investment with the help of the Sinking Fund table. Like in the example Rs 1,57,055 (i.e. 0.31411 × 5,00,000) is required every year.
Step 2: The amount of instalment calculated in the above step is transferred to the Debenture Redemption Fund (Sinking Fund) by debiting from Profit and Loss Appropriation Account.
Step 3: In the first year, the above instalment is invested to yield amount required for redemption of debenture by debiting Debenture Redemption Fund Investment Account.
Step 4: The interest on investment is received on half yearly or annual basis. In the example, the interest of Rs 9,423 is received on annual basis.

Step 5: The total amount of investment, i.e. interest plus instalment is invested in the subsequent year. In the example, Rs 1,66,478 (i.e. Rs 1,57,055 + Rs 9,423) is invested in the next year.
Step 6: Repeat the Step 2, 3, 4 for each subsequent years up to the end of the life of the debenture. In the year of redemption, the instalment (i.e. the last instalment) will be debited to the Profit and Loss Appropriation Account but will not be invested.
Step 7: In the year of redemption, the investment is sold off.
Step 8: The profit (loss) on the sale of the investment is transferred by debiting (crediting) Debenture Redemption Fund Investment Account to the Debenture Redemption Fund Account.
Step 9: The payment to the debenture holder is made.
Step 10: The balance of Debenture Redemption Fund Account if any, is transferred to the General Reserve.

Question 9: Can a company purchase its own debentures in the open market? Explain.
ANSWER: Yes, a company can purchase its own debentures provided it is authorised by its Article of Association. As per the Company Act, if a company is authorised by its Article of Association, only then it may purchase its own debentures from the open market. The main purposes of such purchase are as follows:
1. For immediate cancellation of debenture liability, if the interest rate on its debenture is higher than the market rate of interest.
2. A company may also purchase its own debentures with the motive of investment and sell them at higher price in future and thereby earn profit.
A company may purchase its own debentures at discount or at premium for cancellation.
1. If Debentures are purchased at Discount for Cancellation
When the company purchases its own debentures at discount for cancellation, then the following Journal entries are recorded.

Question 10: What is meant by conversion of debentures? Describe the method of such a conversion.
ANSWER: When a debenture holder can convert his/her debentures into shares or new debentures after the expiry of a specified period of time, then it is known as redemption of debentures by conversion. As the company does not need to pay any funds for the redemption, so there is no need to maintain Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR). The new shares or debentures may be issued at par, premium or at discount.
If a debenture holder exercises the conversion option, then the issue price of shares must be equal to or less than the amount actually received from debentures.

FAQs on NCERT Solution (Part - 3) - Issue and Redemption of Debentures - Additional Study Material for Commerce

1. What is the meaning of debentures?
Ans. Debentures refer to a form of long-term borrowing by a company where investors lend money to the company in exchange for fixed interest payments and repayment of the principal amount at maturity.
2. How are debentures issued?
Ans. Debentures can be issued through various methods such as public issue, private placement, or rights issue. In a public issue, debentures are offered to the general public through a prospectus. In a private placement, debentures are offered to a specific group of investors. In a rights issue, existing shareholders are given the option to subscribe to the debentures in proportion to their existing shareholding.
3. What is the process of debenture redemption?
Ans. Debenture redemption refers to the repayment of the principal amount of debentures by the company. The process typically involves setting aside funds over the tenure of the debentures to ensure that the principal amount is available for repayment at maturity. The company may also choose to redeem the debentures before maturity through a call option, subject to certain conditions mentioned in the debenture agreement.
4. What are the types of debenture redemption reserves?
Ans. There are two types of debenture redemption reserves - specific reserve and general reserve. A specific reserve is created when the company issues debentures with a specific clause requiring the creation of a reserve for their redemption. A general reserve, on the other hand, is created voluntarily by the company to build up funds for the redemption of debentures.
5. What are the advantages of issuing debentures for a company?
Ans. Issuing debentures offers several advantages to a company, including a lower cost of borrowing compared to equity, as interest payments are tax-deductible. Debentures also do not dilute ownership control as they do not carry voting rights. Additionally, issuing debentures allows a company to diversify its sources of funding and extend its maturity profile, thus improving its financial flexibility.
