Answer Details
Apart from the common control accounts such as accounts receivable and accounts payable, a control account can also be opened for cash account. A cash control account is used to reconcile the cash book and bank statement.

The cash control account can help a business to identify any errors in the cash book or bank statement, and ensure that the balance of cash is accurate.

Question 3 Report
Provision for bad and double debts in companies final accounts is treated in?
Answer Details
Provision for bad and doubtful debts is created by a company to estimate the amount of its accounts receivable that may not be recoverable in the future. It is a provision made to cover potential losses arising from non-payment of debts. In the final accounts of a company, the provision for bad and doubtful debts is treated in the Profit and Loss Account. The Profit and Loss Account summarizes the company's revenues, expenses, gains, and losses over a specified period of time, typically one year. The provision for bad and doubtful debts is considered as an expense for the company and is subtracted from the gross profit to arrive at the net profit. The treatment of provision for bad and doubtful debts in the Profit and Loss Account follows the accrual accounting principle, which recognizes revenue and expenses when they are incurred, not when they are received or paid. By recognizing the provision for bad and doubtful debts as an expense in the Profit and Loss Account, the company is able to account for potential losses that may arise from non-payment of debts, and this provides a more accurate picture of the company's financial performance. Therefore, the correct answer is option B: Profit and Loss Account.
Question 4 Report
In the not-for-profit-making organization, the excess of income over expenditure is?
Answer Details
In a not-for-profit organization, any surplus of income over expenses is added to the accumulated fund. The accumulated fund represents the organization's savings and is used to support its ongoing activities and future plans. This surplus can be reinvested in the organization or used to support future programs and projects. It is important for a not-for-profit organization to maintain a healthy accumulated fund so that it can continue to fulfill its mission and serve its constituents over the long term. Therefore, "added to the accumulated fund," is the correct answer.

Which of the following methods gives a conservative closing stock value during a period of rising prices?
Answer Details
The LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method gives a conservative closing stock value during a period of rising prices. In the LIFO method, the assumption is that the last goods purchased are the first goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods sold is based on the cost of the most recent purchases, while the value of the ending inventory is based on the cost of the oldest purchases. In a period of rising prices, the cost of the most recent purchases will be higher than the cost of the oldest purchases, resulting in a lower ending inventory value and a higher cost of goods sold. This will result in a lower net income, which is a conservative approach. On the other hand, the FIFO (First-In, First-Out) method assumes that the first goods purchased are the first goods sold. Therefore, the cost of goods sold is based on the cost of the oldest purchases, while the value of the ending inventory is based on the cost of the most recent purchases. In a period of rising prices, the cost of the oldest purchases will be lower than the cost of the most recent purchases, resulting in a higher ending inventory value and a lower cost of goods sold. This will result in a higher net income, which is an aggressive approach. Simple average and periodic simple average methods are not generally used to value inventory during a period of rising prices because they do not differentiate between the cost of older and newer purchases. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is "LIFO."
Question 17 Report
Which of the following items are current assets?
Answer Details
The current assets among the given options are: Stock, bills receivable, cash, and debtors. Current assets are those assets that can be easily converted into cash within a short period, usually within one year. They are assets that are expected to be consumed or converted into cash in the normal course of business operations. Stock, also known as inventory, refers to the goods that a company sells or intends to sell. Bills receivable are the written promises by customers to pay for the goods or services provided by the company. Cash is the most liquid asset and includes money in hand, money in the bank, or any other highly liquid investments. Debtors are customers who owe money to the company for goods or services that have been delivered but not yet paid for. All of these assets are expected to be converted into cash within a relatively short period of time and are therefore considered current assets. In contrast, bad debt and work-in-progress are not considered current assets because they are not easily convertible to cash or are not expected to be consumed within a year. Bills payable are a liability, not an asset.
Question 19 Report
Musa, a prepaid customer of XYZ and KLM, bought ₦1500 recharge card from XYZ, and ₦2000 recharge recharge card from KLM, for business calls. The entry to record these transaction is debit?
Answer Details
The correct entry to record the transaction is: Telephone ₦3,500, Credit Cash ₦3,500 This is because the customer Musa bought recharge cards from two different companies, XYZ and KLM, and paid cash for the cards. The entry to record the transaction should show an increase in the Telephone account (as this represents the value of the airtime purchased), and a decrease in the Cash account (as the customer paid for the recharge cards with cash). Therefore, the account to be debited is Cash, while the account to be credited is Telephone.

Question 27 Report
In a partnership account, conversation of non-cash assets into cash is referred to as?
Answer Details
In a partnership account, the conversion of non-cash assets into cash is referred to as realization. Realization is the process of converting non-cash assets, such as property or investments, into cash. This may occur when a partnership is dissolved, and the partners need to divide the partnership's assets and liabilities. The process of realization involves selling the partnership's assets, paying off its debts, and distributing the remaining cash to the partners according to their capital account balances. Realization is an important concept in partnership accounting because it determines how the partners will divide the partnership's assets and liabilities. The amount of cash that each partner receives will depend on their capital account balance, which reflects their investment in the partnership. For example, if a partnership has non-cash assets, such as property or investments, worth $100,000 and liabilities of $50,000, the partnership's net assets would be $50,000. If the partnership is dissolved and the assets are sold for cash, the $50,000 in liabilities would be paid off, leaving $50,000 in cash to distribute to the partners. If one partner had a capital account balance of $30,000 and the other had a balance of $20,000, the first partner would receive 60% of the cash ($30,000/$50,000), and the second partner would receive 40% of the cash ($20,000/$50,000). In summary, realization is the process of converting non-cash assets into cash in a partnership account, and it determines how the partners will divide the partnership's assets and liabilities.
Question 28 Report
The book value per share is obtained by dividing?
Answer Details
The book value per share is obtained by dividing the shareholders' equity by the outstanding shares. Shareholders' equity represents the residual interest in the assets of a company after all its liabilities have been deducted. In other words, it is the amount of money that would be left over if all the company's assets were sold and all its debts paid off. Outstanding shares refer to the total number of shares of the company's stock that are currently owned by shareholders and are available for trading in the stock market. By dividing the shareholders' equity by the outstanding shares, we can determine the book value per share, which represents the amount of shareholders' equity that can be attributed to each share of stock. For example, if a company has a total shareholders' equity of $10 million and 1 million shares of stock outstanding, the book value per share would be $10 ($10 million divided by 1 million shares). This means that each share of stock represents $10 of the company's net assets. The book value per share is an important financial metric that investors can use to evaluate the value of a company's stock. It can be compared to the current market price of the stock to determine whether the stock is undervalued or overvalued.

The cost incurred by departments that support the production departments with such activities as maintenance, production control and storage are called?
Answer Details
The cost incurred by departments that support the production departments with activities such as maintenance, production control, and storage are called "service costs." These costs are associated with the services provided by support departments to the production departments, which help them carry out their production activities efficiently. For example, maintenance departments ensure that the production machinery is in good working condition, production control departments coordinate production schedules and ensure that materials and resources are available when needed, and storage departments provide storage facilities for raw materials and finished products. Service costs are indirect costs that are not directly related to the production of goods or services, but they are necessary to ensure that the production process runs smoothly. The cost of these services is allocated to the production departments based on a predetermined formula, such as the number of hours of service provided or the square footage of space used. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is "service costs."

Question 37 Report
Replacement and renewal of fixed assets are?
Answer Details
Replacement and renewal of fixed assets are considered capital expenditures. Fixed assets are assets that are used in the production of goods or services and have a useful life of more than one year. Examples of fixed assets include buildings, machinery, and vehicles. Over time, fixed assets can become obsolete, outdated, or worn out and need to be replaced or renewed. When a fixed asset is replaced or renewed, it involves a significant expenditure of funds, and the benefits of the new asset are expected to last for more than one year. Therefore, it is considered a capital expenditure rather than a revenue expenditure. Capital expenditures are expenditures that are expected to benefit a business over a long period, usually more than one year. They are expenditures made to acquire, improve, or maintain fixed assets. Capital expenditures are recorded as assets on the balance sheet and are usually depreciated over the useful life of the asset. In contrast, revenue expenditures are expenses that are incurred in the normal course of business operations and are expected to benefit a business within the current accounting period. They are typically recorded as expenses on the income statement and reduce the net income of the business for the current period. In summary, the replacement and renewal of fixed assets are considered capital expenditures because they involve significant expenditures of funds and are expected to benefit the business over a long period.

Direct credit to the bank..................₦1, 000
Direct debit from the bank.................₦1, 000
Credit in the cash book....................₦500Calculate the balance as bank statement at the end of the year?
Answer Details
The balance as per cash book is ₦20,000. Unpresented cheques are ₦5,200, meaning they have been recorded in the cash book but have not yet cleared the bank. Therefore, they must be deducted from the balance as per cash book to get the adjusted cash book balance, which is: Adjusted cash book balance = Balance as per cash book - Unpresented cheques = ₦20,000 - ₦5,200 = ₦14,800 There is a direct credit of ₦1,000 to the bank account, which means the bank owes the business ₦1,000. Similarly, there is a direct debit of ₦1,000 from the bank account, which means the business owes the bank ₦1,000. These two transactions cancel each other out, so they do not affect the adjusted cash book balance. Finally, there is a credit of ₦500 in the cash book, which means that the cash book balance needs to be increased by ₦500. Therefore, the adjusted cash book balance plus the credit in the cash book is: Adjusted cash book balance + Credit in the cash book = ₦14,800 + ₦500 = ₦15,300 This adjusted cash book balance plus credit in the cash book represents the balance as per bank statement. Therefore, the balance as per bank statement at the end of the year is ₦15,300. Answer (₦27,700) is incorrect.

Expenditure incurred on consumables and goods for resale is?
Answer Details
Expenditure incurred on consumables and goods for resale is called "revenue expenditure." Revenue expenditure refers to the expenses that a business incurs to support its normal operations, such as salaries, rent, utilities, and purchases of goods for resale. These expenses are incurred in the current accounting period, and they are deducted from the revenues earned during the same period to determine the net income of the business. The purpose of revenue expenditure is to generate revenue in the short term and maintain the day-to-day operations of the business. These expenses are usually recurring, and they do not result in the acquisition of long-term assets. On the other hand, capital expenditure refers to the expenses incurred to acquire or improve long-term assets, such as property, plant, and equipment. These expenses are not deducted in the current accounting period but are capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the assets. Sunk costs are costs that have already been incurred and cannot be recovered, regardless of the decision made. Miscellaneous expenses refer to expenses that do not fit into any specific category. Therefore, the correct answer to the question is "revenue expenditure."

If the gross profit margin is 10% what is the value of the cost of goods sold?
Answer Details
The gross profit margin is the percentage of revenue that exceeds the cost of goods sold. It can be calculated as follows: Gross profit margin = (Gross profit / Sales) x 100% We are given the value of the gross profit margin as 10%. We can use this information along with the value of sales to calculate the gross profit. Then we can subtract the gross profit from the cost of goods sold to find its value. Let's first calculate the gross profit: Gross profit margin = (Gross profit / Sales) x 100% 10% = (Gross profit / ₦100,000) x 100% Gross profit = (10% / 100%) x ₦100,000 Gross profit = ₦10,000 Now we can use the formula to find the value of cost of goods sold: Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross profit Cost of goods sold = ₦100,000 - ₦10,000 Cost of goods sold = ₦90,000 Therefore, the value of the cost of goods sold is ₦90,000. The correct answer to the question is option B.
