Answer Details
The entry to record the purchase of goods for resale on credit costing ₦150,000 from Tosanwumi International on 30th September 20X8 is: Debit: Purchase Account ₦150,000 Credit: Tosanwumi International Account ₦150,000 This means that the Purchase Account is debited with the value of the goods purchased on credit, while the Tosanwumi International Account is credited for the same amount, representing the amount owed to the supplier. The Purchase Account is a nominal account that is used to record the cost of goods purchased for resale or for use in the business. The Tosanwumi International Account is a personal account, specifically a creditor account, used to record the amount owed to Tosanwumi International for the goods purchased on credit. This entry follows the double-entry bookkeeping system, which requires that every transaction has equal debits and credits. The debit entry represents the increase in expenses, while the credit entry represents the increase in liabilities, specifically accounts payable to the supplier.

The Unissued capital of the company is
Answer Details
The authorized share capital of Industry Ltd is ₦200,000, which means the maximum amount of money the company can raise from issuing shares is ₦200,000. The company issued 100,000 shares at ₦1 each, so it raised ₦100,000. This means that ₦100,000 of the authorized share capital has been issued. All shareholders paid in full except for two shareholders who owe a total of ₦20,000. This means that the company received a total of ₦80,000 in payment for the issued shares. The unissued capital of the company is the portion of the authorized share capital that has not been issued yet. Since the authorized share capital is ₦200,000, and ₦100,000 has been issued, the unissued capital is ₦100,000. Therefore, the answer is (2) ₦200,000 is the authorized share capital, and ₦100,000 is the unissued capital.

Answer Details
Distribution expenses are not charged to manufacturing account. Manufacturing account is a record of all the costs incurred during the production process of goods. It includes direct expenses such as raw materials, direct labor (factory wages) and direct expenses incurred in the production process. On the other hand, distribution expenses refer to the costs incurred in the distribution of finished goods to the customers, such as transportation, packaging, and marketing expenses. These costs are not considered a part of the production process and hence are not charged to the manufacturing account. Instead, they are recorded in the selling and administrative expenses account.

Answer Details
Depreciation is the fall or decrease in the economic service potential of an asset as a result of wear, tear and obsolescence. Think of an asset as something you own, like a car, a computer, or a building. Over time, these assets lose value because they get older, wear out, or become outdated. This loss of value is called depreciation. It's an estimate of how much an asset has lost in value over a certain period of time. In simple terms, depreciation is like getting older - the more time goes by, the less useful you become. The same thing happens to assets. The longer they're in use, the less valuable they become, and that decrease in value is called depreciation.

Question 10 Report
Majority of commercial transactions are termed credit transactions, which means
Answer Details
When we say that a commercial transaction is a credit transaction, it means that the payment for goods or services is deferred to a future date. In other words, the buyer doesn't pay immediately for the goods they've purchased, but instead, they are given a certain period of time to pay for those goods. This is a common practice in business, as it allows buyers to make purchases without having to pay for them upfront, and it also allows sellers to extend credit to their customers, which can help to build customer loyalty and increase sales. In a credit transaction, an account is usually opened between the buyer and seller, which keeps track of the amount owed and the payment due date. When the payment due date arrives, the buyer is expected to make the payment, which settles the account. It's important to note that in a credit transaction, the item of expenditure doesn't increase. The cost of the goods or services remains the same, but the payment for those goods or services is deferred to a future date.

Question 12 Report

Answer Details
An ordinary share of ₦100 was issued at ₦80, which means it was issued at a discount. A share is said to be issued at a discount when its issue price is lower than its par or face value. In this case, the par value of the share is ₦100, but it was issued at ₦80, which is lower than its face value. Therefore, the difference between the issue price and the par value (₦100 - ₦80 = ₦20) is the discount. On the other hand, if a share is issued at a price higher than its par value, it is said to be issued at a premium. When a share is issued at its face value, it is said to be issued at par. Lastly, a loss is incurred when the selling price of an asset is lower than its purchase price. However, that is not the case in this scenario as there is no information on any selling of the share.
Question 13 Report

Answer Details
The effect of the transaction will be an increase in the assets of the motor vehicle account and a decrease in the assets of the bank account. When you bought the motor vehicle and paid for it by cheque, you transferred ₦60 from your bank account to the account of the seller. This means that the assets of your bank account decreased by ₦60, while the assets of the motor vehicle account increased by ₦60. In other words, the transaction resulted in the transfer of ₦60 worth of value from your bank account to the motor vehicle account. Therefore, there is no increase in liabilities of the bank account because you did not borrow any money to make the purchase. To summarize, the transaction of buying a motor vehicle and paying for it by cheque resulted in an increase in the assets of the motor vehicle account and a decrease in the assets of the bank account.
Question 15 Report
Which of the following cannot depreciate?
Answer Details
Land is the item that cannot depreciate. Depreciation is the reduction in the value of a fixed asset due to wear and tear, obsolescence or other factors. It is a non-cash expense that is charged against the income of a company over the useful life of the asset. However, land is a fixed asset that has an unlimited useful life, and its value does not diminish over time. Therefore, it cannot be depreciated. On the other hand, plant and machinery, motor vans, and premises are all fixed assets that have a limited useful life, and their values decrease over time due to wear and tear, obsolescence or other factors. As a result, they can be depreciated. In summary, land is the item that cannot be depreciated, while plant and machinery, motor vans, and premises are all items that can be depreciated.

Answer Details
The cost of raw materials consumed is ₦152,120. To determine the cost of raw materials consumed, you need to subtract the stock of raw materials on January 1st from the stock of raw materials on December 31st and add the purchases of raw materials, which is ₦71,380 - ₦50,640 + ₦32,160 = ₦53,000. This amount is then added to the direct expenses, such as factory fuel, carriage inwards on raw materials, and manufacturing wages, which are ₦29,640 + ₦45,000 + ₦16,500 + ₦12,500 + ₦7,000 = ₦100,640. The total of these two amounts is ₦152,120, which is the cost of raw materials consumed.

Answer Details
In a non-profit making organization, the excess of assets over liabilities equals accumulated funds. Accumulated funds, also known as "net assets" or "fund balance", represent the total amount of funds that the organization has accumulated over time from its operations, donations, and other sources, minus any liabilities that it owes. When an organization has more assets than liabilities, it means that it has accumulated more resources than it has used or spent over time, resulting in a positive balance of accumulated funds. This balance can be used by the organization to fund future projects and initiatives or to build up its reserves. It is important to note that in a non-profit organization, accumulated funds are not owned by any individual or group, but rather are dedicated to the organization's mission and objectives. They are held in trust for the benefit of the organization and the people it serves.

|
Net profit | 25,000 |
Calculate the net profit on percentage of expenses.
Answer Details
To calculate the net profit as a percentage of expenses, we need to first determine the total expenses of the company for the year. We can do this by adding up all of the overhead expenses: admin expenses + selling expenses + other overhead expenses. Total expenses = ₦16,800 + ₦15,000 + ₦6,200 = ₦38,000 Next, we can calculate the net profit as a percentage of expenses by dividing the net profit by the total expenses and multiplying by 100. Net profit as a percentage of expenses = (Net profit / Total expenses) x 100 = (₦25,000 / ₦38,000) x 100 = 65.79% Therefore, the correct answer is 65.79%, which is option (D). This means that for every ₦1 spent on expenses, the company earned a net profit of approximately ₦0.66. It's important to note that this percentage does not take into account the cost of goods sold, which is a separate expense and is already deducted from the sales figure.

Which of these will not appear in the preparation of control account.
I. Bad debts
II. Discounts
III. Returns
IV. Provision for bad debts
Answer Details
The item that will not appear in the preparation of a control account is option IV only, which is "Provision for bad debts." A control account is a summary account that provides an overview of the individual accounts that make up a particular category, such as debtors or creditors. The purpose of a control account is to reconcile the total balance of individual accounts with the balance in the control account. In the context of accounts receivable, which is money owed to a company by its customers, the control account typically includes transactions such as sales, cash receipts, discounts, and returns. Bad debts, which are accounts that are unlikely to be paid by customers, are also included in the control account. However, the provision for bad debts is a separate account that is used to estimate the amount of bad debts that are likely to occur in the future, and it is not typically included in the control account. In summary, the provision for bad debts is not included in the preparation of a control account, while bad debts, discounts, and returns are typically included.

Answer Details
The cost of goods for department B is 2800. To find the cost of goods, we need to subtract the total expenses from the total sales. First, we need to calculate the total expenses by determining the expenses to be shared in the ratio of sales, which is 1500 + 2000 + 50100 = 71600. Then, we can find the total sales for department B, which is 3000 + 5000 = 8000. Finally, we can subtract the total expenses from the total sales: 8000 - 71600 = 2800. This is the cost of goods for department B.

What is the Gross Profit on percentage of sale?
Answer Details
To calculate the Gross Profit on percentage of sale, we need to use the following formula: Gross Profit Percentage = (Gross Profit / Sales) x 100 First, we need to calculate the Gross Profit, which is the difference between the Sales and Cost of Goods Sold: Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold Gross Profit = 233,000 - 170,000 Gross Profit = 63,000 Next, we can calculate the Gross Profit Percentage using the formula above: Gross Profit Percentage = (Gross Profit / Sales) x 100 Gross Profit Percentage = (63,000 / 233,000) x 100 Gross Profit Percentage = 0.2701 x 100 Gross Profit Percentage = 27.01% Therefore, the Gross Profit on percentage of sale is 27.01%, which means that for every ₦1 of sales, Wazobi Ventures earns a Gross Profit of ₦0.27. The closest option to this answer is 27.0%.

The advantage of double entry is that
Answer Details
The advantage of double-entry bookkeeping is that it ensures the accuracy of financial records and provides a complete picture of a company's financial transactions. Double-entry bookkeeping is a method of recording financial transactions that involves recording every transaction in at least two accounts, with one account debited and the other credited. This ensures that the total debits always equal the total credits, which means that the books are always in balance. By using double-entry bookkeeping, companies can ensure that their financial records are accurate and complete. They can also quickly identify errors and discrepancies in their records, which can help them to make better financial decisions. In addition, double-entry bookkeeping provides a complete picture of a company's financial transactions. It shows how every transaction affects both sides of the accounting equation (i.e., assets = liabilities + equity), which helps companies to understand the impact of their transactions on their financial position. In summary, the advantage of double-entry bookkeeping is that it ensures the accuracy and completeness of financial records, helps companies to quickly identify errors and discrepancies, and provides a complete picture of a company's financial transactions. It is not related to options such as increasing assets or disbursing cash.
Question 30 Report
Transactions are recorded or posted to the ledger in line with
Answer Details
Transactions are recorded or posted to the ledger in line with the Double Entry Principle. This principle is the foundation of modern accounting and states that every transaction has two effects: a debit and a credit. Debits and credits must be equal and opposite to keep the accounting equation (assets = liabilities + equity) in balance. So when a transaction occurs, it is analyzed to determine which accounts are affected and how. The debits and credits are then recorded in the ledger, which is a book that contains all the accounts used by a company. Each account has a balance, which reflects the total of all the debits and credits that have been posted to it. For example, let's say a company purchases inventory for $1,000. This transaction affects two accounts: Inventory (an asset) and Accounts Payable (a liability). Using the Double Entry Principle, the company would record a debit of $1,000 to the Inventory account and a credit of $1,000 to the Accounts Payable account. This ensures that the accounting equation stays in balance and that the company's financial statements accurately reflect its financial position. In summary, the Double Entry Principle is the method by which transactions are recorded in the ledger. It ensures that every transaction is properly analyzed and that the resulting debits and credits keep the accounting equation in balance.

In a partnership, when no agreement is made by the partners, the default provisions of the Partnership Act of the relevant country take effect. These provisions dictate the terms of the partnership, including how profits and losses are to be shared, how interest is to be charged on capital and drawings, and whether partners are entitled to receive salaries. In this context, the statement "the following provisions take place except" is not clear as it suggests that there are several provisions, and one of them does not take effect. However, the options given do not constitute provisions that are part of the default provisions of the Partnership Act. Therefore, the statement is incomplete, and we cannot provide a definitive answer. However, we can say that the default provisions of the Partnership Act are in place to provide a framework for partnerships where there is no agreement between the partners. These provisions may vary from country to country and may be different depending on the legal jurisdiction. Overall, it is always recommended for partners to have a partnership agreement in place that outlines the terms and conditions of the partnership, as this can help avoid potential conflicts and ensure that all partners are on the same page.

The method of stock valuation in which the issue price is obtained by dividing the value of stock in hand by unit of stock in hand is
Answer Details
The method of stock valuation in which the issue price is obtained by dividing the value of stock in hand by unit of stock in hand is called Weighted Average Price (WAP). WAP is a method of determining the average cost of a stock that a company holds in its inventory. It takes into account the cost of each unit of stock and the number of units held. The total cost of the stock is then divided by the total number of units to determine the average cost per unit. This average cost per unit is then used as the value of the stock for accounting purposes. The WAP method is useful for companies that purchase stocks at different times and different prices, as it provides a more accurate reflection of the value of the stock. It is also useful for companies that sell stock frequently, as it provides a more accurate reflection of the cost of the stock and helps to ensure that the company is not overcharging or undercharging for the stock.

Answer Details
The purpose of a profit and loss (P&L) account is to show the financial performance of a business over a specific period of time, usually a month or a year. It helps to determine the net profit or loss of a company by showing the total revenue earned and the total expenses incurred during the period. The P&L account starts with the gross profit, which is calculated by subtracting the cost of goods sold (COGS) from the total revenue. Gross profit shows the amount of money the company made from its sales before any other expenses are taken into account. Next, the P&L account lists all the expenses incurred by the company during the period, such as wages, rent, utilities, advertising, and other operating costs. These expenses are subtracted from the gross profit to arrive at the net profit or net loss. The net profit or loss is the final result of the P&L account and shows whether the company made a profit or suffered a loss during the period. If the net profit is positive, it means the company had more revenue than expenses and made a profit. If the net profit is negative, it means the company had more expenses than revenue and suffered a loss. In conclusion, the purpose of a P&L account is to determine the net profit or loss of a company by showing the total revenue earned, the total expenses incurred, and the difference between the two.

B ₦ 2100 463 70 1100 |
The profit and loss in joint venture with B account in the ledger of A.
Answer Details
To solve this problem, we need to calculate the total profit and then divide it between A and B in the agreed ratio of 3:2. To calculate the total profit, we need to find the difference between the total revenue and the total expenses: Total revenue = Sales + Advert + Wages = ₦3200 + ₦3278 + ₦516 = ₦6994 Total expenses = Purchases = ₦2600 Total profit = Total revenue - Total expenses = ₦6994 - ₦2600 = ₦4394 Now, to divide the profit between A and B in the agreed ratio of 3:2, we need to use the following formula: A's share = (3 / 5) x Total profit B's share = (2 / 5) x Total profit Substituting the values, we get: A's share = (3 / 5) x ₦4394 = ₦2636.40 B's share = (2 / 5) x ₦4394 = ₦1758.60 Therefore, the profit that A will receive is ₦2636.40, and the profit that B will receive is ₦1758.60. Now, let's calculate the settlement amount by adding the profit to the original amount A paid to B: Settlement amount for B = Original amount paid by A + B's share of profit Settlement amount for B = ₦2000 + ₦1758.60 = ₦3758.60 Therefore, the answer is option (C) ₦993.
