20% over market.

IMPORTANT POINTS:

• All liabilities including contingent liabilities are to be considered
• Statement of Affairs should be prepared even before the appointment of liquidator.
Therefore, legal expenses, liquidators remuneration and liquidation expenses will not
be included
• Calls in arrears will be included in LIST A (Uncalled capital will not be included). The
amount which is not recoverable on calls-in-arrears is shown as deduction from called
up capital. Therefore, share capital will be taken at before deducting towards calls in
arrears

CA_STUDENTS’ STUDY CIRCLE 80


ADVANCED ACCOUNTING SHORT NOTES PROBLEMS
• If only a portion of Call in arrears is recoverable, then to the extent it will be shown in
List A. At the time of “Settlement of Capital”, consider capital only to the extent of
balance capital (i.e. capital – Call in arrears irrecoverable)
• Uncalled capital if any, will be shown as a note at the end of the “Statement of affairs”
• Unclaimed dividend if any will be shown as unsecured creditors. However this amount
will be paid only after payment of unsecured creditors
• If no information is given, generally debentures (including interest till the date of
liquidation) are treated as having floating charge on all the assets of the company.
Debenture interest after liquidation till the date of actual payment shall be considered
only if the company is solvent. Where the company is insolvent, interest is payable up
to the date of liquidation.
• Liability in respect of bills discounted by the company is contingent; any amount
expected to be paid in respect of bills discounted should be included in List E

LIQUIDATOR’S FINAL STATEMENT

Liquidator’s Final Statement of Account:


 It is the duty of the liquidator to realize the assets of the company under liquidation and
settle the account of every creditor proving his claim against the company
 It is therefore, necessary for him to prepare a statement showing how much he realised
and how the same was disbursed among the claimants.
 Liquidator has to maintain a “Cash Book” for receipts and payments and has to submit a
summary of the same to the court in case of compulsory winding up and to the company
in case of voluntary winding up
 Such summary statement is called as “Liquidator’s Final Statement of Account”

“Sources of Cash for Settlement” to the Liquidator:


Sources of Cash

Net Result of Cash in Hand Surplus from Sale proceeds of Contributions


Trading activity Secured the Assets made by
& Creditors contributories

Order of payment/Presentation for Liquidators Final Statement:

Note: 1 Secured Creditors [Wholly or Partly]


 Payment to secured creditors is not shown in liquidator’s final statement of account
 Secured Creditors will be settled to the extent of their claim or the amount realised by
sale of securities held by them whichever is less
 If the claims of secured creditors are less than the securities realised, then the
surplus will be shown as receipt
 If the claims of the secured creditors are more than the securities realised, then the
balance amount [unsatisfied] is included with “Unsecured Creditors”

Note: 2 Liquidator’s Remuneration:

Liquidator’s Remuneration shall be fixed as follows:

Fixed as a % on Fixed as % on
the assets the payment
Fixed Amount Others Combination
realised made to

Important Points:
a. While calculating liquidator’s remuneration on assets realised, the amount of cash and
bank balance is not included. However, if the inclusion of cash and bank balance is
specifically mentioned, then it should be taken into consideration

b. In case if liquidator’s remuneration is fixed as a % on assets realised, and the security is


realised by the creditors themselves, then the remuneration of the liquidator on the assets
realised will be the “Surplus received from secured creditors”

c. In case if liquidator’s remuneration is fixed as a % on the payment made to creditors:

i) If sufficient amount is available to make payment to creditors and liquidator’s remuneration,


then,
Remuneration = [Amount due to creditors x Rate fixed]

ii) If sufficient amount is not available to make payment to creditors, then


Remuneration = [Amount due to creditors x Rate/(100+Rate)]

Note: 3 Payments and Order of Presentation


 Preferential creditors have priority over debenture holders [carrying floating charge]
 However, while preparing the liquidator’s final statement of account, payment to
preferential creditors is shown after the payment to debenture holders [having floating
charge]

Note: 4 Interest on Liabilities:


 In case of solvent companies, interest on liabilities [loan, debenture etc.] is payable upto
the date of payment
 In case of insolvent companies, interest on liabilities is payable upto the date of winding
up
 A company is said to be solvent, if the assets realised are sufficient to pay all creditors
of the company in full, and some surplus is left over

Note: 5 Unsecured Creditors


 Liability in respect of dividend or amounts due to shareholders on account of profits will
be included in the category of unsecured creditors. However, payments regarding
dividend etc.. will be made only after the outsiders are satisfied
 A contingent liability may become a actual liability on the happening of a certain event. In
that case, it amount should be included in the category of unsecured creditors.

CA_STUDENTS’ STUDY CIRCLE 82


ADVANCED ACCOUNTING SHORT NOTES PROBLEMS
Note: 6 Preference Shareholders
 If preference dividend are declared but not paid, then they are paid as debt and not as
arrear
 If preference dividend is in arrear [cumulative preference share only] for one or more
years, and it has not been declared, then unless otherwise mentioned in the articles,
arrears should be paid, only when, after making payment to preference capital and equity
capital in full and surplus is left. To be precise, preference dividend can be paid if it is in
arrear, even before making payment to equity shareholders by virtue of provision in the
articles of company
 If the shares are not specifically stated as non-cumulative, then it should be treated as
cumulative
 No dividend is generally payable for any period falling after the commencement of winding
up

Note: 7 Treatment of Surplus:


 Amount left over after paying to preference shareholders will go to equity shareholders
 Any surplus leftover will again goes to equity shareholders, unless the preference shares
are participating preference shares
 If preference shares are participating preference shares, then they have a right to share
the surplus left after paying equity share capital

Note: 8 Treatment of Calls in Arrear and Calls in advance


Before making payment to contributories, if there are any calls-in-arrears, it should be
collected by the liquidator first. Similarly if there is any calls-in-advance, it should be returned
to the concerned shareholders before making any payment for capital

Note: 9 Appointment of Receiver:


Sometimes, debenture holders may have power (as per the agreement) to appoint a receiver
in certain circumstances. If a receiver is appointed, he shall realise the assets specifically /
generally. He shall meet the expenses/payment in priority to the debenture holders including
his expenses and remuneration but excluding liquidator’s remuneration. After settling the
above, balance amount will be utilised for satisfying debenture holders.

After satisfying debenture holders, balance amount left will be handover to Liquidator. Duty
of the liquidator is to satisfy the unsecured creditors and shareholders. The receiver shall
prepare “Receipts and Payments account/Receiver’s Final Statement” and shall submit the
same together with surplus if any left, to the company (if it is going concern) or to the liquidator
of the company (if liquidating concern). Note: Except for any special circumstances, the
official liquidator can be appointed as receiver to avoid expenses and conflict.
