Normally entire amount would have been credited to p and l account and the journal entry would have been Bank a/c DR 4000 To. P and l A/c. 4000 But in this case since the market value of shares of their becoming ex right fallen by 3400,so the sale proceed of rights should be applied to reduce the carrying amount of investment to market value Journal entry Bank a/c Dr. 4000 To investment a/c 3400 To Pand l a/c. 600


In case of Investment acquired on cum right basis and the market value of those shares immediately after their becoming ex right is lower than at which they were acquired ,then the sale proceed of the rights shall be applied to reduce the carrying amount of the investment
