Munce and Cassidy, the proprietors of a consulting business, decided to convert their business into a limited company known as Hawkspur Ltd. The following was the balance sheet for internal purposes at the date of the proposed conversion, 1 July 2020.

Hawkspur Ltd was registered on 1 July 2020. The purchase agreement provided that the assets other than cash at bank were to be taken over at the following fair values.

Munce and Cassidy were to pay the accounts payable and discharge the mortgage payable. As consideration for the sale they were to receive $40 000 in cash 7 days after the allotment of shares issued to the public and on 31 August 60 000 fully paid ordinary shares and 40 000 fully paid 10% preference shares, valued at $1 per share.
The company offered for public subscription 80 000 preference shares and 100 000 ordinary shares payable 50c per share on application, 25c per share on allotment and 25c per share 1 month after allotment. The subscription lists closed on 31 July and application money was received for 65 000 preference shares and 120 000 ordinary shares.
On 4 August, the directors proceeded to allotment, and forwarded letters of regret enclosing refund of application money to unsuccessful applicants. By 31 August, all the allotment money was received except that due on 1400 ordinary shares. The purchase price was paid to Munce and Cassidy as per agreement. Share issue costs paid on 31 August amounted to $4500.

The company purchased additional freehold property on 1 September 2020 for $195 000, satisfied by the issue of 150 000 fully paid ordinary shares, valued at $1 each, $30 000 on long-term loan, and the balance in cash.
