Explanation

This solution involves preparing final accounts from a given Trial Balance with adjustments.

  1. Trading Account: Calculates Gross Profit. Direct expenses like Carriage Inwards and Wages (including outstanding) are debited. Purchases are adjusted for Return Outwards, and Sales for Return Inwards. Closing Stock is credited.
  2. Profit & Loss Account: Calculates Net Profit. Indirect expenses (General Exp, Insurance net of prepaid, Salary including outstanding, Scooter Exp, Depreciation, Interest on Capital) are debited. Incomes (Discount, Commission) and Gross Profit are credited.
  3. Balance Sheet: Shows financial position. Assets include Fixed Assets (less depreciation), Debtors, Stock, Prepaid Exp, and Cash. Liabilities include Capital (adjusted for Interest and Profit), Creditors, Bank OD, and Outstanding wages/salary.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Prepare Trading Account to find Gross Profit.

    • Net Sales = 1,12,000 - 4,600 = 1,07,400.
    • Net Purchases = 67,600 - 3,200 = 64,400.
    • Total Dr side = 16,000 (Op Stock) + 64,400 (Purch) + 1,400 (Carriage) + 1,400 (Wages + 200 out) = 83,200.
    • Total Cr side = 1,07,400 (Sales) + 15,000 (Cl Stock) = 1,22,400.
    • Gross Profit = 1,22,400 - 83,200 = 39,200.
  2. Step 2: Prepare Profit & Loss Account to find Net Profit.

    • Debit side expenses: Gen Exp (2,400) + Insurance (3,000) + Scooter Exp (200) + Salary (10,600) + Int on Cap (2,500) + Depreciation (920).
    • Total Expenses = 19,620.
    • Credit side incomes: GP (39,200) + Discount (1,400) + Commission (1,800) = 42,400.
    • Net Profit = 42,400 - 19,620 = 22,780.
  3. Step 3: Prepare Balance Sheet.

    • Assets: Buildings (65,000) + Scooter (7,600) + Furniture (4,680) + Debtors (6,000) + Stock (15,000) + Prepaid Ins (1,000) + Cash (4,000) = 1,03,280.
    • Liabilities: Capital (50,000 + 2,500 + 22,780 = 75,280) + Creditors (16,000) + Bank OD (10,000) + Out Salary (1,800) + Out Wages (200) = 1,03,280.
