French term

capital souscrit et appele, non verse

French to English Bus/Financial Accounting
In current assets on a balance sheet: any ideas on the exact term in English?

Discussion

rkillings Sep 22, 2007:
Alfredo, inclusion in current assets means only that the item is receivable in less than one year, not necessarily that it is liquid ("can be turned into cash quickly").
Alfredo Tanús Sep 21, 2007:
If it's included under current assets, it should be something that can be turned into cash quickly. This sounds like equity in other company, but then it should be the case of funds separated for that goal, but still not paid. Just a thought. Good luck!

unpaid, called up share capital

COMPANIES HOUSE

16. What happens if a person refuses to pay for shares?

A member is liable to pay up the nominal value of each of his shares and the amount owing to the company is a debt which can be ** 'called up'. **

If a member refuses to pay all or any call on a share, the company may use forfeiture proceedings if permitted by its articles. A typical procedure is set out in paragraphs 18-22 of Table A of The Companies (Tables A to F) Regulations 1985 (if alternative provisions have not been adopted). As these proceedings are of a penal nature the regulations must be followed exactly, otherwise the court may declare forfeiture proceedings void.

** uncalled capital is that part of the issued capital on which the company has not requested payment; **

I don't think that you have to say 'subcribed' - if it wasn't subscribed to, it couldn't be called up. I believe....

Peer comment(s):

agree rkillings : You can drop "subscribed" (and "up" as well). The ISO 10962 (CFI) code for the shares in question will indicate "partly paid" or "nil paid". Given the ambiguity, "unpaid" seems acceptable.

Thanks Robert. I work for a company secretary, we say called up, so I listen to the boss and Companies House :-))

subscribed capital called for, unpaid

C'est un actif (asset) puisque les actions ont été souscrites et l'appel de versement a eu lieu, mais il n'a pas encore été versé. C'est donc une créance èa recevoir
