Working Note:
1. Calculation of Application money refunded to Share applicants.
Application money received from public
(30000 × 20)   = 600000
Less: Application money transferred to share capital
(20000 × 20)  = 400000
Excess application money refunded = 600000 – 400000 = 200000
2. Allotment money received (20000 × 35) = 7,00,000
3. First Call money received (20000 × 25) = 5,00,000

4. Second Call Money received (20,000 × 20) = 4,00,000
