Issue and Redemption of Debentures Exercise 136

Solution SA 1

A debenture is a debt instrument used by big companies to borrow money at a fixed rate of interest. The debenture is issued in the form of a certificate with the stamp of the company containing the date of repayment of the principal amount after a fixed period of time and the payment of interest at regular intervals, generally half yearly or annually. Debentures are issued by a company for acquiring medium to long-term borrowings.

Solution SA 2

Bearer debentures are debentures which are transferable merely by delivery. The company does not maintain a record of such debenture holders and therefore interest is paid to the person who presents interest coupons which are attached to these debentures in the specified bank.

Solution SA 3

Collateral security implies additional or secondary security, i.e. in addition to primary security. When a company takes a loan from a financial institution and the security offered is not sufficient, the company may issue debentures for additional security, i.e. collateral security. The lender who receives debentures as collateral security is not entitled to interest on such debentures. If the company makes any default for repayment of the loan amount or interest on the loan, then the lender has the full right to recover his/her dues by selling off the primary security. However, if the primary security is not adequate to repay the amount of the loan, then the debentures issued as collateral may be utilised to repay the remaining amount.

Solution SA 4

When a company purchases a running business (i.e. assets and liabilities) and issues debentures to the vendor instead of paying cash, it is known as issue of debenture for consideration other than cash.

Solution SA 5

When the debentures are issued at a price less than its par value (or the face value) and redeemed at a price higher than its par value, then it is termed issue of debenture at discount and redeemable at premium. The difference between the issue price and the redemption price is considered loss on issue of debenture.

Example:

A 10% debenture of Rs.10,000 is issued at 5% discount and is redeemed at 10% premium.

Total loss

=11,000 - 9,500 = Rs.1,500

Solution SA 6

Capital reserve is a reserve which is created out of capital profits, i.e. profits earned from other than the normal course of business activities, i.e. activities other than purchase or sale of goods and services. Capital reserve can be used to meet future capital losses, if any, and to issue bonus shares. It cannot be distributed as dividend among shareholders. Capital reserve is generated out of the following activities:

  1. Premium on issue of shares
  2. Premium on issue of debentures
  3. Profit on redemption of debentures
  4. Profit on sale of fixed assets
  5. Profit on sale of investment
  6. Profit on reissue of forfeited shares
  7. Profit before incorporation

Solution SA 7

Debentures which are not repayable by a company during its lifetime are known as irredeemable debentures. These are repayable only when the company is winding up. It is also known as perpetual debentures, i.e. debentures having indefinite life. Nowadays, in India, no company can issue irredeemable debentures.

Solution SA 8

Debentures which can be converted to equity shares after a particular period of time are known as convertible debentures. These are of the following two types:

  1. Fully Convertible Debentures: When the entire amount of a debenture is convertible into equity shares, the debentures are called fully convertible debentures. Debenture redemption reserve is not maintained.
  2. Partly Convertible Debentures: When only a part of the amount of a debenture is convertible into equity share, the debentures are called partly convertible debentures. Debenture redemption reserve is maintained only for the non-convertible part of the debenture.

Solution SA 9

Debentures which are secured against any asset/s of a company are called mortgaged debentures. It is also known as secured debentures. If the debentures are secured against a particular asset, then it is called fixed charge. If the debentures are secured against all the assets of a company, then it is called floating charge. If the company fails to repay the principal amount of debenture or is not able to meet its interest obligations on the due date, then the debenture holders have the right to realise their amount due to the company by selling the mortgaged asset/s.

Solution SA 10

When debentures are issued at a price less than its par value or face value, it is said that debentures are issued at discount. The difference between the issue price and the face value of the debenture is considered as capital loss. According to the Revised Schedule VI of the Companies Act, discount on issue of debentures is shown in the Notes to Accounts.

  1. Under Other Current Assets: With the amount which is to be written off within 12 months from the date of balance sheet. 
  2. Under Other Non-Current Assets: With the amount which is to be written off after 12 months from the date of balance sheet.

Solution SA 11

When the debentures are repaid or redeemed at a price more than its face value or the par value, it is said that the debentures are redeemed at premium. The difference between the redeemed price and the par value is considered capital loss and this loss is written off till the redemption of the debentures. The premium on redemption of debenture is shown in the Notes to Accounts under the sub-head of 'Other Long-term Liabilities'. The final balance is shown under the main head of 'Non-Current Liabilities' on the Equity and Liabilities side of the Company's Balance Sheet.

Solution SA 14

Redemption of debenture refers to repayment of debenture amount by the company to debenture holders. It implies the discharge of liabilities by repaying the amount due to the debenture holders according to the terms and conditions determined at the time of issue of debentures. Debentures may be redeemable at par, premium or discount; however, nowadays, they are generally redeemable at par or premium. Redemption can be out of profits or proceeds from the fresh issue of debentures or shares. Redemption of debentures may be done by the following methods:

  1. In lump sum at the time of maturity
  2. In instalments by draw of lots at the end of each year
  3. By purchase in the open market whenever the price is below its face value
  4. By converting debentures into shares or new debentures

Solution SA 15

Yes, a company can purchase its own debentures from the open market provided it is authorised by its Article of Association. According to the Companies Act, if a company is authorised by its Article of Association, only then it can purchase its own debentures from the open market. The main objectives of such purchase are as follows:

  1. For immediate cancellation of debenture if the interest rate of its debenture is higher than the market rate of interest.
  2. A company may also purchase its own debentures with the aim of investment and sell them at a higher price in the future and thereby earn profit.

Solution SA 16

When a debenture holder converts his/her debentures into shares or new debentures after the expiry of a specific period of time, it is known as redemption of debentures by conversion. There is no need to maintain the Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) as the company does not need to pay any funds for redemption. The new shares or debentures may be issued at par, premium or discount.

Solution SA 17

When the debentures are repaid or redeemed at a price higher than its face value or the par value, it is said that the debentures are redeemed at premium. The difference between the redeemed price and the par value is treated as a capital loss and this loss is written off till the redemption of the debentures. The Premium on Redemption of Debenture is shown in the Notes to Accounts under the sub-head of 'Other Long-term Liabilities'. The final balance is shown under the main head of 'Non-Current Liabilities' on the Equity and Liabilities side of the Company's Balance Sheet.

Issue and Redemption of Debentures Exercise 140

Solution NUM 17

Debenture issued = 4,00,000 @ 94%

Discount on Issue = 6%

Amount of discount to written off every year

In 2011 = Rs.6,000

In 2012 = 2,000 + 4,800 = Rs.6,800

In 2013 = 1,600 + 3,600 = Rs.5,200

In 2014 = 1,200 + 2,400 = Rs.3,600

In 2015 = 800 + 1,200 = Rs.2,000

In 2016 = Rs.400
