a Two from:
•
to obtain an accurate bank balance
•
to identify errors in the bank account or on the bank statement
•
to assist in discovering fraud and embezzlement
•
to identify items not credited by the bank
•
to identify cheques not yet presented
•
to identify any ‘stale’ cheques.
b The bank account in the cash book is a record of transactions as they affect the business –
money paid into the bank is debited and money taken out of the bank is credited.
The bank statement is a copy of the customer’s account in the books of the bank. This is a
record of transactions as they affect the bank – money paid in by the customer is credited
(as it increases the amount owed by the bank to the customer) and money taken out is
debited (as it reduces the amount owed by the bank to the customer).
c The opening balances are not the same because there was an unpresented cheque (cheque
number 23 457) for $130 which had been recorded in the bank account in August, but this
did not appear on the bank statement until September.

c iUnpresented cheques are cheques that have been paid by the business and entered on
the credit side of the cash book but which do not appear on the bank statement.
ii
Amounts not yet credited consist of cash and cheques that have been paid into the bank and
entered on the debit side of the cash book, but which do not appear on the bank statement.
d Advantages:
•
may have less bank charges
•
may have less administration costs.
Disadvantages:
•
increased security risk (obtaining and holding cash)
•
has to ensure that enough cash is available at the end of the month.
Plus any other suitable comments.
Recommendation – it is preferable to continue the present practice of paying by cheque or
by bank transfer.

a i
A bank statement is a document issued by the bank at regular intervals. It is a copy of
the customer’s account in the books of the bank and is a record of transactions as they
affect the bank.
A bank reconciliation statement is prepared by the customer/trader after receipt of the
bank statement to explain the difference between the balance in the bank column of the
cash book and the balance on the bank statement.

A credit transfer is an instruction to the bank to transfer by electronic means a fixed
amount to a named individual or business.
A direct debit is an instruction to the bank from the customer to permit a named person

provision for doubtful debts – this does not affect an individual debtor’s account and is
the provision in existence at the beginning of the month
•
cash sales – these do not affect an individual debtor’s account as they are debited to
the cash account and credited to the sales account
•
discount received –this does not affect an individual debtor’s account as it is discount
received when payment was made to creditors.

•
opening balance – this represents the money owned by the club at the start of the year
•
closing balance – this represents the money owed by the club to the bank at the end of
the year (bank overdraft)
•
new equipment – this is capital expenditure and only revenue expenditure is included in
the income and expenditure account
•
proceeds of sale – this is a capital receipt; only the loss or profit on the sale of an asset is
included in the income and expenditure account.
c One from:
•
depreciation of equipment – this is a non-monetary expense and cannot, therefore,
appear in the receipts and payments account
•
loss on sale of equipment – this does not represent money received or paid and cannot,
therefore, appear in the receipts and payments account.
d The accumulated fund is the equivalent of the capital of a business. It is the total of the
surpluses (less any deficits) earned by the club since its formation.

c Considerations:
Income would increase by 466 to 5 126.
Bank balance would increase by 466.
It may result in members leaving the club so total subscriptions may actually fall.
It is only the first year of existence so membership may increase next year when club is more
established.
The shop fittings are a one-off purchase and will not occur in following year
Consider raising funds by other means.
Plus any other suitable comments.
Recommendation – see what the position is at the end of the second year before increasing
fees and in the meanwhile, try to increase income from other sources and reduce costs.

c It is necessary to prepare an appropriation account to show how the profit for the year is
shared between the partners. The profit for the year is transferred to this account from the
income statement. Any interest on drawings charged to the partners increases the amount
available to share and this must be added to the profit. Interest on capital and partners’
salaries are deducted. The remaining amount, the residual profit, is shared between the
partners in the agreed profit-sharing ratio.
d A capital account records permanent increases or decreases in the capital invested by the
individual partner. A current account records anything which the partner becomes entitled
to, such as interest on capital, interest on loan, partner’s salary and profit share (which are
credited), and anything which the partner is charged with, such as drawings and interest on
drawings (which are debited).
Maintaining both a capital account and a current account for each partner means it is easy to
see the amount invested and to calculate the interest on capital. The current account shows
the profit retained and whether the drawings exceed the total profit share.

entitled. He should be advised to reduce his drawings. He is withdrawing funds which could
be used within the business.
Bill is concerned about the erosion of the bank balance and the effect on the business.

Work in progress is the goods which are partly completed at the end of the financial year.
ii
Direct expenses are those expenses which a manufacturer can directly link with the
product being manufactured.
iii Indirect factory expenses are sometimes referred to as factory overheads. These are
costs of operating the factory which cannot be directly linked with the product being
manufactured.
b Prime cost
Cost of materials consumed: opening inventory of raw materials 23 500 + purchases
287 560 − closing inventory of raw materials 21 500 = 289 560
Direct factory wages 199 450, direct expenses 8 740
Prime cost: 497 750
c Cost of production
Prime cost 497 750 + overheads (indirect factory expenses) 186 330 + opening work in
progress 9 880 − closing work in progress 10 040 = 683 920
37 a The purpose of a manufacturing account is to calculate how much it has cost the business to
manufacture the goods produced in the financial year.
b i
rime cost is the total of the three elements of cost – direct material, direct labour and
P
direct expenses. Cost of production is the prime cost plus the factory overheads.
ii
irect labour is the cost of the wages of the people who are employed in the factory
D
making the goods. Indirect labour is the cost of the wages of the people who are
employed in the factory but not actually involved in the production of the finished goods.

he liability of the owners/shareholders of the business for the debts of that business is
limited to the amount they agree to contribute to the capital of the business.
b Advantages of operating as a limited company:
Shareholders are only liable for the debts of the company up to the amount they agree to
contribute.
A company is a separate legal entity.
It is possible to access a greater capital than a sole trader/partnership.
It is usually easier for a company to obtain loans than it is for a sole trader/partnership.
A company has continuity of existence.
Disadvantages of operating as a limited company:
Many legal requirements have to be observed to form and operate as a limited company.
Annual financial statements have to be prepared and provided to shareholders and these
must also be filed with the registrar of companies.
c i
ii
Issued share capital is the amount of share capital actually issued to the shareholders.
Called-up share capital is that part or the issued share capital for which payment has
been requested from shareholders.
iii Paid-up share capital is that part of the called-up share capital for which the company
has received payment from shareholders
d Equity is the total funds provided by the shareholders of a limited company. This consists
of ordinary share capital, non-redeemable preference shares, general reserve and retained
earnings.
41 a
Ordinary shareholders receive a dividend after preference share dividend has been
accounted for. The dividend is not a fixed amount but varies according to the profits of the
company. If the company is wound up the ordinary shareholders are not repaid until all the
other liabilities and preference shares have been paid. Ordinary shareholders are usually
entitled to vote at the annual general meeting.
Preferences shares receive a fixed rate of dividend which is payable before any dividend on
ordinary shares. If the company is wound up the preference shareholders are repaid after
outside liabilities but before the ordinary shareholders. Preference shareholders are not
usually entitled to vote at the annual general meeting. There are several different types of
preference shares such as redeemable and non- redeemable.
b The difference between redeemable and non-redeemable preference shares is important
because it affect the treatment of dividend and how they are included in the statement of
financial position.
Redeemable preference share dividend is included as a finance cost in the income
statement and the shares are included in the non-current liabilities in the statement of
financial position. The dividend on non-redeemable preference shares is included in the
statement of changes in equity and the shares are included in the equity in the statement of
financial position.
c Retained earnings are the profits which have accumulated in the company in the form of
profits not appropriated for dividend. These are carried forward to later years and appear in
the equity and reserves section of the statement of financial position.
d Debentures are long-term loans. They carry a fixed rate of interest, which is payable
irrespective of profits. The loan interest is included in the finance costs in the income
statement. The debentures are included in the non-current liabilities in the statement
of financial position. Debenture holders are repaid before shareholders in the event of a
winding-up. As the debenture holders are not members of the company they are not entitled
to vote at the annual general meeting.

dividend have been accounted for. The dividend is not a fixed amount but varies according

d The retained earnings are the profits which have not been distributed as dividends but have
been retained within the company.
e The general reserve is the total of annual profits which have been transferred from the
retained earnings as a means of ploughing back profits within the company.
f
Dividends proposed are those dividends which remain unpaid at the end of the financial
year (they have been proposed by the directors but not yet approved by the shareholders).
Dividends paid are sometimes referred to as interim dividends and are those dividends
which have been paid to shareholders during the financial year.
g Debenture interest paid appears in the income statement because it is interest on a loan.
Ordinary share dividend paid appears in the statement of changes in equity as it represents
the share of the profits paid to ordinary shareholders.

c Considerations:
The profit for the year will decrease by the additional debenture interest of $2 800, so the
amount of profit available for the ordinary shareholders will decrease.
Is the profit for the year expected to increase as a result of the expansion and when will this
take effect?
If the profit does increase by more than $2 800 it may result in more profit available for
ordinary shareholders.
The debenture holders have a prior claim on the profits on the company in the event of a
winding-up.

Capital owned is the amount owed by a business to the owner(s) of that business.
Capital employed is the total funds which are being used by a business. This can be
calculated as capital provided by owner(s) plus non-current liabilities. An alternative
calculation is total assets less current liabilities.

b Current ratio slightly less in 20–7, but no significant changes. The current assets are almost
double the current liabilities.
The liquid (acid test) ratio has fallen by almost half. The liquid assets are now less than the
current liabilities and the company may have problems paying debts when they fall due.
The credit customers are taking an average of six more days to pay their accounts. The credit
control procedures may need tightening as the company has to wait longer to obtain the
money.
The company is taking an average of seven more days to pay the credit suppliers. This
may be a ‘knock on’ effect from the late-paying customers, but may result in the suppliers
refusing further supplies.

c Considerations:
In general, discontinuing cash discount will result in an increase in the profit for the year as
the expenses are decreased.
However, the average credit customer is taking 30 days to pay their account so cash discount
will not be awarded to the majority of customers in any event.
Cash discount may act as an encouragement to pay promptly but does not seem to be
having that effect in this case.
Prompt payment reduces the risk of irrecoverable debts, but the incentive of cash discount
is ineffective in this case.
Plus any other suitable comments.
Recommendation – Continue to offer discount as it makes little difference to the profit for
the year. But as this is not encouraging credit customers to pay within the credit period
recommend improve credit control procedures.

he gross profit is overstated by $5 500. The sales returns, $4 000, were omitted so the
revenue was overstated resulting in the gross profit being overstated. The closing inventory
was overstated by $1 500, so the gross profit is also overstated.
b The rate of inventory turnover is understated by 1.79 times. Using the original figures the cost
of sales was $180 000 and the average inventory was $9 500 so the rate of turnover was 18.95.
After correcting the error the cost of sales is $181 500 and the average inventory is $8 750,
making the rate of turnover 20.74 times.
c The revenue is overstated by $4 000 as sales returns of that amount were omitted.
d The expenses were not affected by either of the errors.
e The profit for the year is overstated by $5 500. The gross profit was overstated by $5 500 and
the expenses were unchanged so the profit for the year is overstated by $5 500.
f
The equity at 31 December 20–8 is overstated by $5 500. The profit for the year was
overstated by $5 500 but there is no change to the opening equity or the drawings so the
closing equity is overstated by $5 500.

A credit supplier is interested in the liquidity position and the payment period for trade
payables. These may be considered in determining the credit limit and the length of
credit allowed.
iii An employee is interested to know if the company is able to continue operating, and
so jobs will be maintained and wages (and sometimes contributions to private pension
schemes) will continue to be paid.

oney measurement means that only information which can be expressed in monetary
M
terms can be recorded in the accounting records. This means that there are many
important factors which influence the performance of a business which will not appear,
e.g. goodwill, quality of management, skill of the workforce, government policies,
competition, etc.
All businesses should apply the basic accounting principles of prudence and
consistency, but there are several acceptable accounting policies which may be applied
in the accounting records, e.g. different methods of depreciation. Where businesses have
used different policies it is difficult to make a meaningful comparison of their results.
iii Historic cost means that transactions are recorded at the actual cost price. Comparing
transactions taking place at different times can be difficult because of the effect of inflation.

ave has the better gross margin. This is probably because he is trading in clothing
D
which has a higher mark-up than food.
Dave has a much lower profit margin. This will be affected by the different types of
expenses; Dave will have rent which Ann and Susan do not have (although they will have
the expense of managers’ salaries).
iii Dave has a much lower rate of inventory turnover. This will be affected by the fact that
the businesses trade in different goods and food has a much quicker rate of turnover
than clothing.
iv Dave has the lower return on capital employed. This may be affected by the fact that his
business is only two years old. It may be that Dave is not employing the capital in the
most effective way.
v
Dave achieved a slightly lower return on his capital employed. This will be influenced
by the fact that some of Dave’s long term funds were in the form of loans. If all the funds
had been in the form of capital the rate would have been even lower. This will probably
also be influenced by the fact that Dave’s business is only two years old.
vi Dave’s ratio is satisfactory as his current assets are twice the amount of the current
liabilities. Ann and Susan’s current ratio would appear to be more than adequate and may
indicate that they are not making the most efficient use of their immediate assets. They
will not have any trade receivables so the assets will consist only of inventory and money.
vii Dave’s ratio is satisfactory as his liquid assets are equal to his immediate liabilities. Ann
and Susan’s liquid ratio would appear to be more than adequate as the assets in the
form of money are twice the immediate liabilities. This may indicate that they are not
using the immediate funds in the most efficient way.
