Machine Rs. 3,99,000 is the purchase consideration. Case (i): issue 8,400 8% Debentures of Rs. 50 at 5% discount; Discount on Issue = Rs. 21,000. Case (ii): issue 3,800 10% Debentures of Rs. 100 at 5% premium; Securities Premium = Rs. 19,000.

Working notes:

  • Case (i): Issue price per debenture = 50 - 5% of 50 = 50 - 2.50 = Rs. 47.50. Number = 3,99,000 / 47.50 = 8,400 debentures. Face value = 8,400 x 50 = Rs. 4,20,000; Discount = 8,400 x 2.50 = Rs. 21,000.
  • Case (ii): Issue price per debenture = 100 + 5% of 100 = Rs. 105. Number = 3,99,000 / 105 = 3,800 debentures. Face value = 3,800 x 100 = Rs. 3,80,000; Premium = 3,800 x 5 = Rs. 19,000.
