Solution
To calculate the share capital, we need to multiply the number of shares issued by their par value.
-
On January 15, 10,000 shares were issued. The par value of each share is P200. So, the share capital for this issuance is 10,000 shares * P200/share = P2,000,000.
-
On May 1, 5,000 shares were issued. The share capital for this issuance is 5,000 shares * P200/share = P1,000,000.
-
On November 23, 2,000 shares were issued. The share capital for this issuance is 2,000 shares * P200/share = P400,000.
Adding these up, the total share capital reported should be P2,000,000 (from January 15) + P1,000,000 (from May 1) + P400,000 (from November 23) = P3,400,000.
