COMPANY LEDGER ACCOUNTS (LIVE)
08 APRIL 2015
Section A: Summary Notes and Examples
The Companies Act No. 71 of 2008 (applicable from 2011) has introduced several significant changes to
company law in South Africa. Two of the most significant changes in terms of their effect on accounting
entries in the Grade 12 curriculum are:

Shares of no par value: Section 35 (2) states that ‘a share does not have a nominal or par value’.

Buy-back of shares: Section 48 allows companies to repurchase its shares from shareholders
under certain conditions.
The main reason for the dispensing of par value is that this bears no resemblance to the true worth of a
share other than on the first day of a company’s existence and was often confusing to uninformed
investors. All shares are now of ‘no par value’. Shares are issued at an ‘issue price’. This means that:

The full proceeds of the share issue are credited to the Share Capital account.

The Share Premium account no longer applies.

New shares may be issued at a higher or lower price than any previous issue price.
There are six important company ledger accounts that you need to learn – of these, the most important is
the Appropriation account as certain questions in other sections will require you to draw it up.

Bank is reduced by the repurchase value paid for the shares
Ordinary share capital is reduced by the number of shares
multiplied by the average issue price
Retained income is reduced by the difference (this represents
the income that had previously been retained in respect of the
shares repurchased)

The Appropriation account is used to divide the profit for the year. It is a final account (that’s why it is
called F3)
Alternative format of the Appropriation account
Another way of drawing up the Appropriation account is as follows:
