Deepak:
Applied          1,000
Alloted           1000 space cross times space fraction numerator 40 comma 000 over denominator 80 comma 000 end fraction space equals space 500
Amount paid at time of application = 1,000 x 2 = 2000
Less: Adjusted towards application = 500 x 2 =   (1000)
Excess = 2000 - 1000 = 1000
Amount due on Allotment = 500 x 4 = 2,000
Less: Excess Adjusted                    =   (1,000)
Calls in arrears  = (2000 - 1000) = 1000
Raju:
