20 January 2021 If the Reserves and surplus comes as negative figure what it means

21 January 2021 It means loss incurred......

22 January 2021 You are suffering from loss and your liabilities are more than your assets


26 January 2021 Besides all this, if a firm decides to pay dividend far higher than the outstanding balance in its reserves and surplus account, it may lead to a negative or deficit networth.

If you are an equity investor, it is pertinent to keep a tab on your company’s networth. It will tell you if there are any assets left for you as a shareholder, should the company’s operations become unviable and warrant closure. If the company’s networth is negative or deficit and the entity makes losses, it may be a warning signal for you as an investor to exit your investment.
