On 31 December 2015, the partnership was converted to a limited company, Bin Ltd. All the partnership assets and liabilities were taken over by the company in exchange for shares in Bin Ltd valued at £304,000. The share capital was allocated so as to preserve the rights previously enjoyed by the partners under their partnership agreement.
The assets and liabilities and shares issued were all entered in the books of Bin Ltd at 31 December. In the company's books, the accounts receivable were recorded at £116,000 and the freehold property was valued at £260,000.
On 1 January 2016, Pa invested £120,000 in the company and was issued shares on the same basis as had been applied when deciding the share allocations to Dinho and Manueli - i.e. as if he had been an equal partner in the partnership. Pa had previously been an employee of the partnership earning £40,000 per annum. The £120,000 he invested in the company had been earning interest of 6 per cent per annum from the bank. His salary will continue to be paid.
Assume that all profits will be paid as dividends. Ignore taxation.

Required:
