Answer / ameet narayankhedkar

Share Capital:
it can be composed of both common/ordinary and preferred
shares, funds are raised by issuing these shares in return
for cash or other assets. it is equity financing, the
company pays dividends to share holders at certain
percentage if she is able to pay due to good financial
position. here share holders are one of the owners of the
company.

date and annul interest payments funds are raised by issuing
