The remnant mass at the last stage of black hole evaporation is of the order of the Planck mass and the corresponding entropy is of the order of 2 pi(kB). On the basis of Bekenstein's work, the minimum entropy increase when a black hole accretes matter is found to be 2 pi(kB); this gives a lower bound of the Planck mass on the mass accretable by a black hole, which corresponds again to a minimum black hole entropy of the order of 2 pi(kB). Moreover, the minimum entropy and the minimum entropy increase are not affected by gravitation, hence the above statements also hold in the early universe.
