Cevap

N225,000\text{N}225,000
The accumulated fund is equivalent to capital in a profit-making entity, defined as total assets minus total liabilities. Adding equipment (N200,000\text{N}200,000), bank balance (N40,000\text{N}40,000), and subscriptions in arrears (N10,000\text{N}10,000) gives total assets of N250,000\text{N}250,000. Deducting total liabilities comprising subscriptions in advance (N5,000\text{N}5,000) and accrued electricity expense (N20,000\text{N}20,000) gives an accumulated fund of N225,000\text{N}225,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate Total Assets
Total Assets = Equipment (N200,000\text{N}200,000) + Bank balance (N40,000\text{N}40,000) + Subscriptions in arrears (N10,000\text{N}10,000) = N250,000\text{N}250,000
Assets represent all economic resources owned by or owed to the organization.
2
Calculate Total Liabilities
Total Liabilities = Subscriptions in advance (N5,000\text{N}5,000) + Accrued electricity expense (N20,000\text{N}20,000) = N25,000\text{N}25,000
Liabilities represent all amounts owed by the organization to external parties or members.
3
Compute Accumulated Fund
Accumulated Fund = Total Assets (N250,000\text{N}250,000) - Total Liabilities (N25,000\text{N}25,000) = N225,000\text{N}225,000
The accumulated fund of a non-profit organization represents the excess of assets over liabilities.
