Capital Reduction entries

i think a thing like this is done in internal reconstrucion ,when a companies position goes really really bad and the shareholders think that they have to keep the co. alive they surrender some of their shares reducing the share capital liability of company,when the shareholders surrender their shares,it means the co. dont have to pay dividend on the surrendered shares and with the amount it saved ,the co. writes off its priliminary expenses,miscellenous or share issue expenses

yea its possible, ths is case of internal reconstruction.
