Explanation:

a) When shares are issued, the application money is debited to the Stock Application Account while the corresponding credit goes to the (Common) Stock Account.

b) When the application money is received, the Cash Account is debited with the amount received and a credit to the Stock Application Account to close the account.  If oversubscription is involved the difference is transferred to the allotment account for part settlement of allotment money.

c) The forfeiture of shares means that the potential shareholders failed to pay up the balance due on their allotted shares.  The shareholders therefore lose the balance they have already contributed.

d) The reissue of forfeited shares is done in such a way that the difference is received to balance off the forfeited shares account.  However, management may decide to receive the shares at par and refund the forfeited shares balance.
