Cevap: 6200000 ₦

Cevap

The total paid-up capital of the company is ₦6,200,000₦6,200,000.
Paid-up capital is the portion of called-up capital that shareholders have actually paid into the business. First, 80%80\% of the 2,000,0002,000,000 authorized shares equals 1,600,0001,600,000 issued shares. Calling up ₦4₦4 per share yields a called-up amount of ₦6,400,000₦6,400,000. Since holders of 50,00050,000 shares defaulted on ₦4₦4 per share, the unpaid calls in arrears total ₦200,000₦200,000. Subtracting ₦200,000₦200,000 from ₦6,400,000₦6,400,000 results in a total paid-up capital of ₦6,200,000₦6,200,000.
