The following appears in the trading account except
Antwoorddetails
The item that does not appear in the trading account is **carriage outward**. The trading account is a financial statement that shows the calculation of gross profit or loss by comparing the value of goods bought (cost of goods sold) with the value of goods sold (sales). Let's break down the other three options: 1. **Carriage inward**: This refers to the transportation cost incurred to bring goods into the business. It is considered as part of the cost of goods sold, as it directly relates to acquiring the goods for sale. 2. **Opening stock**: This represents the value of goods held in the beginning of the accounting period, before any sales or purchases. It is included in the trading account as it helps determine the cost of goods sold. 3. **Sales**: This represents the total revenue generated from selling goods or services. It is a crucial component of the trading account since it represents the value of goods sold during the period. However, **carriage outward** does not belong in the trading account. It refers to the transportation cost incurred when delivering goods to customers. Carriage outward is not directly related to the cost of goods sold or the calculation of gross profit/loss. Therefore, it is not included in the trading account. In summary, the trading account includes carriage inward, opening stock, and sales, while carriage outward is not part of it.

Accounting entry for dissolution expenses is
Antwoorddetails
The correct accounting entry for dissolution expenses is:
Dr: Realization account; Cr: Cash account.
When a partnership is dissolved, there may be expenses incurred during the winding up of the business. These expenses could include legal fees, accounting fees, and other costs related to the dissolution process.
In accounting, we need to record these expenses accurately. The first step is to debit (Dr) the Realization account. The Realization account is used to record all the assets that are sold or converted to cash during the liquidation process. By debiting this account, we reduce the value of the assets being realized.
Next, we credit (Cr) the Cash account. This entry reflects the payment of actual cash for the dissolution expenses. By crediting the Cash account, we increase the amount of cash that is being paid out from the partnership.
Overall, the dissolution expenses are recorded by debiting the Realization account and crediting the Cash account. This ensures that the expenses are properly accounted for and the financial statements accurately reflect the partnership's liquidation process.

A control account is a summary account that represents a group of similar transactions or balances. It is used to simplify the management and analysis of a large number of individual accounts. The advantage of a control account is that it provides a way to monitor and track the overall balance or activity within a group of related accounts. It helps to ensure accuracy and identify any discrepancies or errors. Now, let's analyze the options provided one by one to determine which one is NOT an advantage of a control account: 1. **Difficulty in committing fraud**: This is indeed an advantage of a control account. By consolidating and summarizing the information from multiple accounts, it becomes more difficult for individuals to manipulate or misrepresent the data for fraudulent purposes. 2. **It can be used to detect missing figures**: This is also an advantage of a control account. By comparing the total balance of the control account with the sum of the individual accounts it represents, any missing figures or discrepancies can be easily identified. 3. **Helps to determine profit and loss**: This is another advantage of a control account. By summarizing the transactions related to revenue and expenses, a control account can provide an overview of the profit or loss generated by a particular area or department. 4. **Helps in locating errors**: This is also an advantage of a control account. By comparing the balances of the control account with the detailed records, any errors or discrepancies can be quickly identified and addressed. Based on the analysis of the options, it can be concluded that the **difficulty in committing fraud** is not an advantage of a control account. In fact, it is an advantage because it makes it more difficult for fraud to occur.

Discount allowed is enjoyed by
Antwoorddetails
Discount allowed is a benefit that is enjoyed by customers. When a company offers a discount, it means they are reducing the usual price of a product or service. This reduction in price is given to the customers as an incentive to encourage them to make a purchase. Discounts can be given for various reasons, such as promotional offers, seasonal sales, or loyalty programs. By offering discounts, companies aim to attract more customers and make their products or services more affordable and appealing. Managers, staff of the company, and suppliers do not directly benefit from the discount allowed. While managers may strategize and set the discount policies, it is ultimately the customers who get to enjoy the discounted prices. Therefore, when it comes to discounts, it is the customers who receive the advantage of reduced prices, making it a benefit enjoyed by them.

The authority to transfer fund from one head to another within the same organization is called
Antwoorddetails
The authority to transfer funds from one head to another within the same organization is called virement.
Virement is a process that allows organizations to shift money from one budget head to another. This transfer of funds is done to reallocate resources based on the changing needs and priorities of the organization.
For example, let's say an organization has allocated a certain amount of money for a particular project in their budget. However, during the course of the year, they realize that another project requires additional funding. Instead of going through a lengthy process of obtaining new funds, the organization can use virement to transfer money from the initial project's budget to the new project's budget.
Virement provides flexibility and allows organizations to make adjustments without having to seek additional approvals or go through administrative hurdles. It is an internal process that helps ensure efficient resource utilization within an organization.
In summary, virement is the authority to transfer funds from one head to another within the same organization. It allows for the reallocation of financial resources based on changing priorities and needs.

Which of the following is used to service all operations of government?
Antwoorddetails
The option that is used to service all operations of government is **consolidated revenue fund**. The consolidated revenue fund is like a big pot where all the money collected by the government goes into. This includes the taxes that people and businesses pay, as well as other sources of revenue such as fees and fines. Once the money is in the consolidated revenue fund, it is then used to pay for various government expenses. This includes things like salaries of government employees, funding for public programs and services, and infrastructure projects like building roads and schools. The important thing to note is that the consolidated revenue fund is used to cover all aspects of government operations. It is the central source of income that allows the government to function and provide services to the public. Therefore, the correct option that is used to service all operations of government is the **consolidated revenue fund**.

Calculate the cost of raw materials consumed
Antwoorddetails
To calculate the cost of raw materials consumed, we need to consider the stock of raw materials at the start of the year, any purchases made during the year, and the stock of raw materials at the end of the year. Given the following information: Stock on 1/1/16: ₦1,000 Purchases: ₦16,000 Stock on 31/12/16: ₦1,400 We can calculate the cost of raw materials consumed using the following formula: Cost of raw materials consumed = Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock Substituting the values: Cost of raw materials consumed = ₦1,000 + ₦16,000 - ₦1,400 Simplifying the calculation: Cost of raw materials consumed = ₦16,600 Therefore, the cost of raw materials consumed is ₦16,600. So the correct answer is option: - ₦15,600

The short term solvency of a company is determined with ------- ratio
Antwoorddetails
The short term solvency of a company is determined using the current ratio. The current ratio is a financial ratio that measures a company's ability to pay off its short-term liabilities (debts due within one year) with its short-term assets (assets that can be converted into cash within one year).
To calculate the current ratio, you divide a company's current assets (such as cash, inventory, and accounts receivable) by its current liabilities (such as accounts payable and short-term loans). The formula is:
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
The current ratio provides valuable insight into a company's ability to meet its short-term financial obligations. A ratio higher than 1 indicates that the company has enough current assets to cover its current liabilities. This generally indicates good short-term solvency.
For example, if a company has current assets of $100,000 and current liabilities of $50,000, its current ratio would be 2. This means that the company has twice as many current assets as current liabilities, which is generally a good sign.
On the other hand, a current ratio lower than 1 implies that the company may have trouble paying off its short-term debts. This could indicate potential financial strain or difficulty in managing short-term liquidity.
Overall, the current ratio helps assess a company's ability to meet its short-term obligations. It provides a simple and comprehensible way to evaluate a company's short-term solvency by comparing its current assets to its current liabilities.

The assumption that a business will continue to exist into the foreseeanle future is recognized by a concept called
Antwoorddetails
The concept that recognizes the assumption of a business continuing to exist into the foreseeable future is called "going concern." This concept assumes that a business will not be liquidated or cease to operate in the near future. It is based on the belief that businesses are established with the intention of operating indefinitely, unless there is evidence to suggest otherwise. The "going concern" concept is important because it affects how a business's financial statements are prepared. When preparing financial statements, the assumption is made that the business will continue its operations and fulfill its commitments. This assumption allows the use of historical cost accounting, where assets and liabilities are recorded at their original cost. In simpler terms, the "going concern" concept basically means that when a business is being evaluated, it is assumed to be an ongoing entity with no immediate plans of shutting down. This assumption allows for consistent and reliable financial reporting, as it reflects the expectation that the business will continue its operations and meet its obligations in the future.

Given:
I. Cash refunds
II. Debit note issued
III. Dishnoured cheque
IV. Purchases
The item on the credit side of purchase ledger control account includes
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is I and IV only.
In a purchase ledger control account, the credit side represents the transactions that increase the amount owed to suppliers. Therefore, the items on the credit side of the purchase ledger control account include:
Cash refunds: When a supplier returns cash to the business for overpaid or returned goods, it is recorded as a credit in the purchase ledger control account. This reduces the amount owed to the supplier.
Purchases: When goods are purchased on credit from a supplier, the value of these purchases is recorded as a credit in the purchase ledger control account. This represents the increase in the amount owed to the supplier.
Debit note issued and dishonored cheques do not directly affect the purchase ledger control account. A debit note is typically used to record an increase in the amount owed to the business by a customer, not the supplier. A dishonored cheque indicates that the payment was not successful, but it does not impact the purchase ledger control account.
Therefore, the correct answer is I and IV only, as cash refunds and purchases are the only items on the credit side of the purchase ledger control account.

The authority warrant issued prior to the approval of the appropriate bill at the begining of the year
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is **provisional general warrant**. A provisional general warrant is issued by the authority at the beginning of the year to allow for the necessary expenses before the approval of the appropriate bill. It serves as a temporary authorization to spend money until the formal annual general warrant is approved. The purpose of this warrant is to ensure that essential and urgent expenditures can be made in a timely manner, even without the formal approval of the bill. It helps to prevent delays in government operations and ensures that necessary services are not interrupted due to the lack of a finalized budget. The provisional general warrant is not a long-term solution, and it is eventually replaced by the annual general warrant once the bill is approved. The annual general warrant provides a more comprehensive and detailed allocation of funds for the entire fiscal year. In summary, the provisional general warrant allows for necessary expenses at the beginning of the year until the appropriate bill is approved, ensuring the smooth operation of government services.

Antwoorddetails
The amount ₦16,387.50 described as "Bank" in the Sales Ledger Control Account represents receipts from all debtors of the business.
In accounting, a Sales Ledger Control Account is used to keep track of the total amount owed by the customers (debtors) of a business. It is a summary account that consolidates all the individual customer accounts.
When a customer makes a payment, it is recorded as a receipt in the Sales Ledger Control Account. This includes payments received from both trade debtors (customers who owe money for credit sales) and cash sales (sales made in cash).
The ₦16,387.50 recorded as "Bank" in the Sales Ledger Control Account includes all the cash received from trade debtors as well as the cash sales made during the month, including any discounts given. Therefore, the correct answer is receipts from all debtors of the business.
It is important to note that the other options provided - receipts from trade debtors only, cash sales for the month including discount, and cash sales for the month excluding discount - are not accurate descriptions of the ₦16,387.50 recorded as "Bank" in the Sales Ledger Control Account.

In company accounting, dividend payments are typically effected in the "appropriation" account. The appropriation account is used to record the allocation of profits or income within a company. It is where the company's board of directors decides how to distribute the company's earnings to its shareholders. Dividend payments are a way for a company to distribute its profits to its shareholders. By making dividend payments, the company shares a portion of its earnings with its owners. When a company decides to pay dividends, the amount to be distributed is transferred from the retained earnings account (which is part of the equity section of the balance sheet) to the appropriation account. This transfer signifies that the profits are being allocated for distribution as dividends. By using the appropriation account for dividend payments, the company can clearly track and document the distribution of profits to shareholders. This helps provide transparency and ensure that dividends are properly accounted for in the company's financial records. To summarize, dividend payments in a company are typically recorded in the "appropriation" account, where the allocation of the company's earnings to shareholders is documented.

The account where the profit are distributed to the partner in their profit sharing ratio in partnership
Antwoorddetails
In a partnership, the account where the profit is distributed to the partners according to their profit sharing ratio is called the **appropriation account**. The appropriation account is a separate account created to record the distribution of profit among the partners. It is prepared after the preparation of the trading account, profit and loss account, and balance sheet. Here's a simple breakdown of the other options and their roles in the partnership: - The **trading account** is prepared to calculate the gross profit or loss of the partnership. It includes revenue from sales, cost of goods sold, and any other trading-related expenses. - The **profit and loss account** is prepared to determine the net profit or loss of the partnership. It includes all the operating expenses, such as salaries, rent, advertising, and depreciation. - The **balance sheet** is a financial statement that shows the financial position of the partnership at a specific point in time. It includes the assets, liabilities, and capital of the partnership. So, to summarize, while the trading account, profit and loss account, and balance sheet provide information about the overall financial performance and position of the partnership, the appropriation account specifically deals with the distribution of profit among the partners based on their profit sharing ratio.

Which of the following is prepared to ascertain the trader's capital under incomplete records?
Antwoorddetails
The correct answer is the statement of affairs.
The statement of affairs is a financial statement prepared to determine the trader's capital when complete records are not available. It is used in situations where a business does not keep detailed records of its transactions.
Statement of affairs helps determine the value of assets (what the business owns) and liabilities (what the business owes) at a specific point in time. It shows the overall financial position of the business by listing the assets and liabilities side by side.
By comparing the total value of assets with the total value of liabilities, we can calculate the trader's capital, which represents the difference between the two. It provides an estimate of the business owner's investment or equity in the business.
Since incomplete records lack a detailed record of transactions and financial data, the statement of affairs becomes a helpful tool to assess the trader's capital and provide a snapshot of the business's financial health.

Sales | 9000 |
Carriage outwards | 500 |
Determine the net profit
Antwoorddetails
To determine the net profit, we need to calculate the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and deduct it from the net sales.
First, let's calculate the COGS: - Start with the stock on January 1st: 2,600 - Add purchases: 4,000 - Add carriage inwards: 500
Total Cost of Goods Available for Sale: 7,100
Next, let's calculate the net sales: - Total Sales: 9,000 - Deduct carriage outwards: 500
Net Sales: 8,500
Now, we can calculate the COGS by dividing the net sales by the total cost of goods available for sale and multiplying by 100: COGS = (COGS / Total Cost of Goods Available for Sale) * Net Sales
COGS = (7,100 / 8,500) * 100 COGS = 83.53%
Finally, we can calculate the net profit by deducting the COGS from the net sales: Net Profit = Net Sales - COGS
Net Profit = 8,500 - (8,500 * 0.8353) Net Profit = 8,500 - 7,098.75 Net Profit = 1,401.25
Therefore, the net profit is #1,401.25.
The correct answer is: #1,400

Current assets are shown in the balance sheet in order of performance as **stock, debtors, bank, and cash**. Stock refers to the inventory or goods a business holds for resale. It is shown first because it represents an essential part of a business's operations. By displaying stock at the top, it emphasizes its importance in the business's overall performance. Debtors are individuals or entities who owe money to the business. They come next because the amounts owed by debtors are expected to be converted into cash within a relatively short period. It is important for the business to accurately track and assess the amounts owed to maintain healthy cash flow. Bank refers to the amount of money held in the business's bank accounts. This includes funds available for immediate use and those that may require a few days to clear. Bank balances are considered highly liquid assets and hold a significant position in the balance sheet. Cash represents physical currency and cash equivalents held by the business. It is displayed last in the order of performance since it is the most liquid asset and readily available for immediate use. Therefore, the correct order of performance for current assets on the balance sheet is stock, debtors, bank, and cash.

Salaries in arrears is treated in the balance sheet as a
Antwoorddetails
Salaries in arrears are treated in the balance sheet as a **current liability**. A balance sheet is a financial statement that shows a company's financial position at a specific point in time. It consists of three main sections: assets, liabilities, and owners' equity. Salaries in arrears are payments that a company owes to its employees for work that has already been performed but not yet paid. This is usually the result of a timing difference between when the work was done and when the payroll is processed. Since these unpaid salaries are obligations that need to be settled within one year, they are classified as current liabilities. Current liabilities are debts or obligations that must be paid within a year or the normal operating cycle of a business, whichever is longer. By reporting salaries in arrears as a current liability on the balance sheet, it provides information to stakeholders, such as investors and creditors, about the company's short-term financial obligations. It helps to give a more accurate picture of the company's financial health and its ability to meet its current obligations. Therefore, salaries in arrears are considered a current liability on the balance sheet.

The accounting system in which only one aspect of transaction is recorded is
Antwoorddetails
The accounting system in which only one aspect of a transaction is recorded is called single entry accounting. In this system, only the cash or assets received or paid are recorded, without recording the corresponding liabilities or expenses. In single entry accounting, each transaction is recorded only once, typically in a single column cash book. This means that there is no systematic tracking of the financial impact of transactions on both sides of the equation (assets = liabilities + equity). It is important to note that single entry accounting is generally considered less comprehensive and reliable compared to double entry accounting. Double entry accounting, on the other hand, is a more complete and accurate system where each transaction is recorded twice—once as a debit and once as a credit. This allows for a better understanding of the financial health of a business and provides a basis for generating accurate financial statements. Overall, single entry accounting is a simpler but less robust approach to recording financial transactions, as it does not provide a complete picture of a company's financial position and performance.

Which of the following is used in the public sector to monitor or control government expenditure?
Antwoorddetails
In the public sector, the **vote book** is used to monitor and control government expenditure. The vote book is a record-keeping tool that helps in tracking how government funds are being spent. It is used to record and track all financial transactions related to government expenditure. Here is a simple explanation of how the vote book works: 1. Each government department or ministry is allocated a specific budget for a financial year. 2. The vote book is used to allocate and track the funds allocated to each department or ministry. 3. Whenever a department or ministry wants to spend money from their allocated budget, they need to make an entry in the vote book. 4. These entries in the vote book include details such as the purpose of expenditure, the amount, and any supporting documentation. 5. By maintaining a vote book, the government can monitor and control the expenses incurred by each department or ministry. 6. The vote book also helps to ensure that government funds are being used for the intended purposes and are not being misused or wasted. 7. Regular analysis and review of the vote book enable the government to assess the effectiveness of their spending and make informed decisions for future budgets. In summary, the vote book is essential in the public sector as it serves as a monitoring and control mechanism for government expenditure. It ensures transparency and accountability and helps in making informed financial decisions.

Antwoorddetails
To calculate the amount of preference shares dividends payable at the end of the year, we need to consider the number of preference shares and the dividend rate. In the given information, we know that Larry Limited has 150,000 preference shares of ₦1 each fully paid. The dividend rate for these preference shares is mentioned as 5%. To calculate the total dividend payable for the preference shares, we can multiply the number of preference shares by the dividend rate. 150,000 preference shares x 5% dividend rate = 7,500. Therefore, the amount of preference shares dividends payable at the end of the year is ₦7,500.

Think of it as a big picture view. The purchases ledger control account combines all the individual creditor balances from the purchases ledger. It shows the total amount the business owes to its creditors at any given time.
By using the purchases ledger control account, the business can easily track the total purchases made on credit and manage its outstanding payments to suppliers. It provides a summary of the business's total credit purchases and the total amount owed to creditors.
So, in summary, the purchases ledger control account is the same as the creditors control account because it represents a summary of all the amounts owed to suppliers or vendors.

In manufacturing, depreciation of office machine is charged to
Antwoorddetails
Depreciation of office machines in manufacturing is charged to the profit and loss account.
Depreciation is a method used to allocate the cost of an asset over its useful life. Office machines, such as computers, printers, and photocopy machines, are considered as fixed assets. These assets gradually lose their value and become less useful over time due to wear and tear or technological advancements.
When manufacturing companies calculate their annual expenses, they include the depreciation of their office machines as an expense in the profit and loss account. The profit and loss account records all the revenues and expenses incurred by a company during a specific period, such as a financial year.
By charging the depreciation of office machines to the profit and loss account, manufacturing companies accurately reflect the decrease in value of these assets over time. This allows them to calculate their net profit or loss for the period more accurately.
It is important to note that while depreciation is charged to the profit and loss account, the accumulated depreciation of office machines is shown as a contra-asset on the balance sheet. The balance sheet provides a snapshot of a company's financial position at a specific point in time, showing its assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity.
In summary, the depreciation of office machines in manufacturing is charged to the profit and loss account, reflecting the decrease in value of these assets over time and accurately calculating the net profit or loss for the period.

This discount is recorded in the discount column on the left side of the cash book.
Therefore, the correct answer is "allowed to a debtor."

Antwoorddetails
A trading account is a financial statement that shows the profit or loss of a business through its trading activities. It includes all the revenues and expenses directly related to the buying and selling of goods. Out of the options provided, the expenses that are charged to the trading account are: 1. Carriage Inwards: Carriage inwards refers to the transportation costs incurred in bringing goods into the business. It can include expenses such as freight charges, import duties, and handling fees. These expenses are directly related to the purchase of goods and are considered a part of the cost of inventory. Hence, carriage inwards is charged to the trading account. 2. Carriage Outwards: Carriage outwards refers to the transportation costs incurred in delivering goods from the business to the customers. It includes expenses such as delivery charges, packaging costs, and shipping fees. Carriage outwards is not directly related to the purchase of goods but is rather an expense incurred in selling them. Therefore, carriage outwards is not charged to the trading account. 3. Rent: Rent refers to the cost of occupying a property for business purposes. Rent is not directly related to the buying and selling of goods, but rather to the use of the premises where the business operates. Hence, rent is not charged to the trading account. 4. Discount Allowed: Discount allowed represents the reduction in the selling price of goods given to customers as an incentive or reward. It is a reduction in revenue and does not directly relate to the cost of inventory or the buying and selling of goods. Therefore, discount allowed is not charged to the trading account. In summary, the expenses that are charged to the trading account are carriage inwards. Rent, discount allowed, and carriage outwards are not charged to the trading account as they are not directly related to the buying and selling of goods.
