Over the past years Surinam plc traded at a loss and no dividends have been paid to the shareholders during the period.
The directors are now of the opinion that the goodwill is now valueless. The tangible fixed assets are overvalued by $1,293,750. Some stock which costs $86,250 now has no value. Included in debtors is an amount of $138,000 from a customer who has now become insolvent.
The directors are confident that, as a result, of improved efficiency and the introduction of new products, the company can look forward to annual net profits of $431,250. They have proposed to the shareholders a capital reduction scheme whereby each shareholder will receive one ordinary share with a nominal value of $0.55 for every $1.00 share currently held. This will enable the debit balance on the profit and loss account to e eliminated and adjustments to be made to the company's assets to take account of the matters mentioned above.
The creditors agreed to take a 10% write off the amount owing to them if the company agreed to pay them immediately, 20% of the balance owed to them after the write off the 10%. To do this the directors agreed to an immediately rights issue of 140000 of the new ordinary shares at par. The shares are issued on May 1 2010.
The director's policy in future will be able to pay dividends which will be covered twice by earnings.
The shareholders have agreed to the director's proposals and the capital reduction was effected on 1 may 2010.
REGUIRED:
Prepare the necessary journal entries for the capital reduction scheme.
