What is the total issued share capital? *
a. 3,850,000
b. 1,539,000
c. 1,350,000
d. 2,950,000
The correct answer is C) $1,350,000.
Supporting explanations:
The preference share capital is not yet issued as it is only subscribed and the subscribed capital is not treated as issued capital because issued capital is the capital that is held by investors (purchased or invested by shareholders) but the subscribed capital is the capital where investors are promised to buy them once they are released by the company so the ordinary share capital of $1,350,000 is only issued capital.
Hence, the correct answer is C) $1,350,000.
