An accounting ratio that considers only quick assets to determine the short-term safety margin of a firm is the?
Answer Details
The accounting ratio that considers only quick assets to determine the short-term safety margin of a firm is called the acid test ratio. Quick assets are current assets that can be easily converted into cash, such as cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable. The acid test ratio is a measure of a company's ability to pay off its current liabilities using only its quick assets. The formula for calculating the acid test ratio is as follows: Acid test ratio = (Quick assets / Current liabilities) A high acid test ratio indicates that a company has sufficient quick assets to cover its current liabilities, which are debts that are due within a year. This indicates that the company is in a good financial position to meet its short-term obligations. In summary, the acid test ratio is an important measure of a company's short-term liquidity and financial strength, and it helps investors and creditors assess the company's ability to meet its obligations in the short-term.

Lighting..................₦2925
Rent......................₦2640
Salary....................₦4050
The expenses are for three different product:
Zema, Zeta and Zera. They are appointed on the basis of population. 4500 units of the products are produced, out of which 1260 and 2060 units are for zema and zeta respectively.
Find the salary charged to Zera product?
Answer Details
To calculate the salary charged to the Zera product, we need to first find the proportion of the total production that is allocated to Zera. Total production = 4500 units Production allocated to Zema = 1260 units Production allocated to Zeta = 2060 units Production allocated to Zera = Total production - Production allocated to Zema - Production allocated to Zeta Production allocated to Zera = 4500 - 1260 - 2060 Production allocated to Zera = 1180 units Now, we need to allocate the total salary expenses to the three products based on their production proportion. Total salary expenses = ₦4050 Proportion of salary expenses for Zema = (1260/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1134 Proportion of salary expenses for Zeta = (2060/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1860 Proportion of salary expenses for Zera = (1180/4500) x ₦4050 = ₦1056 Therefore, the salary charged to the Zera product is ₦1056. Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.

Given:Opening capitaL................₦7 000
Additional capital.............₦3 500
Net............................₦2 500
Closing........................₦10 250The drawings for the period stand at?
Answer Details
To find out the drawings for the period, we need to calculate the difference between the opening capital and the closing capital, while taking into consideration any additional capital introduced during the period. The calculation is as follows: Opening capital + Additional capital - Drawings = Closing capital Substituting the given values, we have: ₦7,000 + ₦3,500 - Drawings = ₦10,250 Solving for Drawings, we get: Drawings = ₦7,000 + ₦3,500 - ₦10,250 = ₦10,500 - ₦10,250 = ₦250 Therefore, the amount of drawings for the period is ₦250. Option C - ₦2500 is incorrect as it is the value of the net, not the drawings. Option D - ₦2570 is also incorrect as it is neither a given value nor the correct calculation.

The estimated life of the asset was 3 years with a residual value of ₦28m.Using the straight method. The depreciation of the asset in the first year was?
Answer Details
To calculate the depreciation of an asset using the straight-line method, you subtract the residual value from the initial cost and divide the result by the estimated life of the asset in years. So, for this asset: - The initial cost was ₦343m - The estimated life of the asset was 3 years - The residual value was ₦28m Subtracting the residual value from the initial cost gives: ₦343m - ₦28m = ₦315m Dividing ₦315m by the estimated life of the asset gives us: ₦315m / 3 years = ₦105m per year Therefore, the depreciation of the asset in the first year using the straight-line method is ₦105m. So, the correct answer is option C: ₦105m.

Sundry.....................N?
The value of sundry expenses is 150% of returns inwards plus 50% of debtors.
How much is sundry expenses?
Answer Details
First, we need to calculate the value of sundry expenses using the information given. We know that returns inwards are ₦1500, so 150% of returns inwards is: 150/100 x 1500 = ₦2250 We also know that debtors are ₦900, so 50% of debtors is: 50/100 x 900 = ₦450 Therefore, the value of sundry expenses is: ₦2250 + ₦450 = ₦2700 We can now fill in this value in the information given, and find the missing value: Returns inwards............₦1500 Cash.......................₦1550 Discount...................₦2850 Capital....................₦3800 Debtors....................₦900 Sundry.....................₦2700 To find the missing value, we need to use the basic accounting equation: Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity We can rearrange this equation to solve for the missing value: Assets - (Liabilities + Owner's Equity) = 0 We know the value of all the items except for "sundry", which we just calculated to be ₦2700. Plugging in the numbers, we get: (₦1500 + ₦1550 + ₦2850 + ₦3800 + ₦900 + ₦2700) - 0 = N Simplifying this expression, we get: ₦12400 = N Therefore, the missing value, which is the value of "sundry", is ₦12400. Answer: ₦2700

If Mr. Ajasin paid his creditors ₦5000 out of ₦20 000 owed, what would be the effect of this transaction on the accounting equation?
Answer Details
When Mr. Ajasin paid his creditors ₦5000 out of the total amount owed ₦20,000, it means that the company's liabilities decreased by ₦5000 since they were able to pay off some of their debts. This transaction would have no effect on the total assets since the money used to pay off the creditors was already accounted for as a liability. Thus, there is no change in the total assets of the company. Therefore, the correct answer is: "A decrease in the total liabilities by ₦5000".

The share of local government W on equality can be calculated as follows: Share on equality = 40% of ₦140m = (40/100) x ₦140m = ₦(40/100) x 140,000,000 = ₦56,000,000 Therefore, the share of local government W on equality is ₦56m.

What is the adjusted cash book balance?
Answer Details
The adjusted cash book balance is ₦14,680. To calculate the adjusted cash book balance, we start with the balance as per cash book, which is given as ₦13,560. We then make adjustments for the unpresented cheques and uncredited lodgements. Subtracting the unpresented cheques of ₦5,120 from the balance as per cash book gives ₦8,440. We then add the uncredited lodgements of ₦2,300 to get ₦10,740. Next, we add the dividend received of ₦2,000 that was not entered in the cash book to get ₦12,740. We then subtract the bank charges of ₦280 and the standing order payments of ₦600 to get the adjusted cash book balance of ₦14,680. Therefore, the adjusted cash book balance is ₦14,680, which is option (i).

Answer Details
The statement "Stock valuation is useful because it forms the sales department on the prices that will affect profitability" is incorrect and doesn't make sense. Stock valuation is the process of determining the value of a company's inventory, which is typically one of the largest assets on its balance sheet. The valuation of stock helps a business to know the value of its inventory at any given point in time. By knowing the value of its inventory, a business can make informed decisions about its production, marketing, and sales strategies. For example, if the stock valuation is low, it may indicate that the business is producing too many goods or is holding onto too much inventory. In this case, the business may need to adjust its production or sales strategies to increase sales and reduce the inventory levels. Stock valuation can also help a business to determine the cost of goods sold, which is a key factor in calculating profitability. By knowing the cost of goods sold, a business can determine the prices it needs to charge for its products to make a profit. Therefore, stock valuation is useful because it helps a business to make informed decisions about its production, marketing, and sales strategies based on the value of its inventory. It also helps a business to determine the cost of goods sold, which is important in calculating profitability.
