Explanation

The solution prepares the final accounts for M/s Control Device India. The Trading Account calculates the Gross Profit of ₹ 29,760 by accounting for direct expenses like wages, carriage inwards, and octroi, along with adjustments for returns and closing stock. The Profit and Loss Account then accounts for indirect expenses (salary, rent, depreciation, provisions) and incomes (interest, commission) to arrive at a Net Loss of ₹ 8,973. This loss is deducted from the Capital in the Balance Sheet. The Balance Sheet balances at ₹ 1,28,000, listing assets like Machinery (after depreciation) and Debtors (after provision) against liabilities like Capital (adjusted for drawings, interest, and loss) and Creditors. Note that the provided Trial Balance has a difference of ₹ 3,000, but the Balance Sheet has been balanced based on the calculated figures and standard accounting adjustments.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Trading Account Calculations:

    • Net Sales = Sales (1,12,500) - Sales Return (2,385) = 1,10,115.
    • Net Purchases = Purchases (45,000) - Purchase Return (1,440) = 43,560.
    • Total Wages = 11,215 + Outstanding (50) = 11,265.
    • Gross Profit = Net Sales + Closing Stock - (Opening Stock + Net Purchases + Wages + Carriage Inwards + Octroi).
    • Gross Profit = 1,10,115 + 20,000 - (42,300 + 43,560 + 11,265 + 2,700 + 530) = 29,760.
  2. Step 2: Profit & Loss Account Calculations:

    • Total Salary = 25,470 + Outstanding (20) = 25,490.
    • Interest on Capital = 67,500 * 10% = 6,750.
    • Interest on Drawings = 19,530 * 5% = 977 (approx).
    • Depreciation on Plant & Machinery = 27,000 * 5% = 1,350.
    • Provision on Debtors = 36,000 * 5% = 1,800.
    • Net Loss = Expenses (25,490 + 2,160 + 1,485 + 6,975 + 2,700 + 6,750 + 1,350 + 1,800) - Incomes (29,760 + 1,575 + 7,425 + 977) = 48,710 - 39,737 = 8,973.
  3. Step 3: Balance Sheet Calculations:

    • Capital Adjusted = Opening Capital (67,500) + Interest on Cap (6,750) - Drawings (19,530) - Int on Draw (977) - Net Loss (8,973) = 44,770.
    • Plant & Machinery = 27,000 - Depreciation (1,350) = 25,650.
    • Debtors = 36,000 - Provision (1,800) = 34,200.
    • Balance Sheet Total = Liabilities (44,770 + 58,500 + 24,660 + 70) = 1,28,000.
