Read the following information carefully and answer the question.

A Limited took over assets of ₹3,00,000 and liabilities of ₹10,000 from X and Co. Ltd. for an agreed purchase consideration of ₹2,70,000 to be satisfied by the issue of 10% debentures of ₹100 each at a premium of 20%.

The company also took a loan of ₹10,00,000 from Punjab National Bank and issued 10% debentures of ₹12,00,000 of ₹100 each as collateral security. The rate of interest on the loan is 12% per annum.

Calculate the amount of fixed obligation of the company.

The correct answer is

₹1,42,500

Fixed obligations include interest on debentures and preference shares. The total obligation is calculated based on 10% debentures and 12% preference shares.

Fixed obligation = (10% of ₹4,00,000) + (12% of ₹1,00,000) = ₹40,000 + ₹12,000 = ₹1,42,500.
