In that case, that is preference dividend in arrears. That means it's not recorded in books previously. So that the the waived amount won't get any entry y because that's not exist in books.


The preference dividend for four year is - 4000*100*6%*4=96,000 3/4 is waived off and only 1/4 is given i.e; 96000*1/4=24000 That 24000 is in form of equity share i.e; 24000/2 =12000 shares

The entry is capital reduction account dr and not reconstruction account to equity share capital account cr

Reconstruction is the another name capital reduction. We can usw either of the one. If question specifically asks a name we should use that
