Solution

To calculate the share premium from the issuance of preference shares, we first need to determine the total par value of the preference shares and the total amount received from their issuance.

Step 1: Calculate the total par value of the preference shares The par value of each preference share is P20 and there are 40,000 shares, so the total par value is P20 * 40,000 = P800,000.

Step 2: Calculate the total amount received from the issuance of preference shares The selling price of each preference share is P27 and there are 40,000 shares, so the total amount received is P27 * 40,000 = P1,080,000.

Step 3: Calculate the share premium The share premium is the difference between the total amount received and the total par value. So, the share premium from the issuance of preference shares is P1,080,000 - P800,000 = P280,000.
