On 1st April, 2011 the Board of directors decide that:

(a) The fully paid preference shares are to be redeemed at a premium of 5% in May, 2011 and for that purpose 50,000 equity shares of Rs.10 each are to be issued at par in the month of April, 2011.

(b) The 1,000 equity shares owned by A an existing shareholder, who has failed to pay the allotment money and the 1st call money @ 2.50 each share are to be forfeited in the month of June, 2011.

(c) The final call of Rs.2.50 per share is to be made in the month of July, 2011.

All the above are duly complied with according to the time schedule. The amount due on the issue of fresh equity shares and on final call are also duly received except from B who had failed to pay the 1st call money for his 1,000 shares holding, has again failed to pay the final call also. These shares of B have been forfeited, in the month of August, 2011. On the total shares forfeited, 1,500 shares are sold to X in September, 2011 credited as fully paid for Rs.9 per share, the whole of A?s shares being included.

Show the necessary journal entries and prepare the balance sheet of the company as on 30th September, 2011.
