Answer:

Correct option is C

Explanation:

Total E&P = $ 160000

Total voting Right Sold = 50/ (100+100) = 25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = Total E&P*Total voting Right Sold

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 160000*25%

Reduction of E& P due to exchange = 40000

Reduction of E& P Lower of Total E&P*Total voting Right Sold or Amount realised

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or (50*1000)

Reduction of E& P Lower of 40000 or 50000

Answer

C. A reduction of $40,000 in E&P because of the exchange.
