Στο αποθεματικό υπέρ το άρτιο μεταφέρονται τα ποσά πάνω από την ονομαστική αξία των μετοχών.

The par value of a share multiplied by the number of shares is shown in a company's balance sheet as its share capital. When shares are issued at more than their par value the excess is added to the share premium reserve on the balance sheet.

Examples
For example, a company issues 100 ordinary shares of a nominal value of $1 each at a subscription price of $4 per share. The $300 difference will go to the share premium account.

At the same time, the company issues 50 preference shares with a par value of $0.5. These shares are bought by investors for $1 each.

The firm's balance sheet at this point consists of only four items:
Assets:
- Cash: $450
Liabilities:
- Nil

Shareholders' equity:
- Common stock: $100
- Preference stock: $25
- Share premium: $325
