Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 205000

Cevap

The Working Capital of Tunde Trading Store as at 31 December 2025 is ₦205,000.
Working capital is calculated as total current assets minus total current liabilities. Total current assets equal ₦640,000 (comprising net debtors ₦360,000, closing inventory ₦240,000, prepaid insurance ₦15,000, and accrued rent income ₦25,000). Total current liabilities equal ₦435,000 (comprising trade creditors ₦290,000, bank overdraft ₦110,000, and accrued electricity ₦35,000). Subtracting current liabilities from current assets yields ₦205,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the net value of trade debtors by deducting the provision for doubtful debts
Net Trade Debtors = ₦380,000 - ₦20,000 = ₦360,000
Provision for doubtful debts is a contra-asset account and must be subtracted from trade debtors to reflect net realizable current assets.
2
Identify and sum all items classified as Current Assets
Total Current Assets = ₦360,000 (Net Debtors) + ₦240,000 (Closing Inventory) + ₦15,000 (Prepaid Insurance) + ₦25,000 (Accrued Rent Income) = ₦640,000
Current assets consist of cash and other assets expected to be converted into cash or consumed within one accounting year. Non-current assets (Premises, Motor Vehicles net of depreciation, Fixtures) are excluded.
3
Identify and sum all items classified as Current Liabilities
Total Current Liabilities = ₦290,000 (Trade Creditors) + ₦110,000 (Bank Overdraft) + ₦35,000 (Accrued Electricity) = ₦435,000
Current liabilities are short-term obligations payable within one accounting period. Long-term obligations such as the 5-Year Bank Loan are non-current liabilities and are excluded.
4
Calculate Working Capital (Net Current Assets)
Working Capital = Total Current Assets - Total Current Liabilities = ₦640,000 - ₦435,000 = ₦205,000
Working Capital represents the operational liquidity available to a business, defined as Current Assets minus Current Liabilities.

Kenechukwu Enterprises purchased office equipment for 500,000₦500,000 on 1 January 2024. The equipment is expected to have a useful life of 5 years and a residual value of 50,000₦50,000. Using the straight-line method, what is the annual depreciation charge?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 90,000₦90,000

Cevap

The annual depreciation charge for the equipment is 90,000₦90,000.
The correct annual depreciation is obtained by subtracting the residual value of 50,000₦50,000 from the purchase cost of 500,000₦500,000 to get a depreciable base of 450,000₦450,000, and then dividing by the 5-year useful life to get 90,000₦90,000 per annum.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the depreciable cost of the asset.
Depreciable Amount = Cost - Residual Value = 500,00050,000=450,000₦500,000 - ₦50,000 = ₦450,000.
Under the straight-line method, depreciation is computed on the total net cost consumed over the asset's useful life.
2
Divide the depreciable amount by the useful life.
Annual Depreciation = 450,000/5=90,000₦450,000 / 5 = ₦90,000.

Cevap: N145,000\text{N}145,000

Cevap

The net profit for Folake Enterprise is N145,000\text{N}145,000.
Total revenue income is N208,000\text{N}208,000 (Gross Profit N200,000\text{N}200,000 plus Discount Received N8,000\text{N}8,000). Operating expenses are adjusted by deducting prepaid rent (N5,000\text{N}5,000) and removing capital expenditure wrongly debited as general expenses (N20,000\text{N}20,000), then adding the increase in provision for doubtful debts (N3,000\text{N}3,000), yielding N63,000\text{N}63,000. Subtracting adjusted expenses from total income gives a net profit of N145,000\text{N}145,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Total Income = Gross Profit + Discount Received = N200,000+N8,000=N208,000\text{N}200,000 + \text{N}8,000 = \text{N}208,000
Gross profit and other operating income like discounts received increase profit.
2
Calculate total adjusted operating expenses
Adjusted Expenses = N85,000N5,000 (prepaid rent)N20,000 (office computer)+N3,000 (provision increase)=N63,000\text{N}85,000 - \text{N}5,000 \text{ (prepaid rent)} - \text{N}20,000 \text{ (office computer)} + \text{N}3,000 \text{ (provision increase)} = \text{N}63,000
Prepaid expenses relate to future periods and must be deducted. Capital expenditure (office computer) is a non-current asset and must be excluded from revenue expenses. Increases in provision for doubtful debts represent additional expenses and must be added.
3
Determine net profit
Net Profit = Total Income - Total Adjusted Expenses = N208,000N63,000=N145,000\text{N}208,000 - \text{N}63,000 = \text{N}145,000

2. Factory insurance has an outstanding accrued liability of ₦40,000 at the end of the financial year.

What is the total amount of factory overheads to be charged in the Manufacturing Account for the year?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: ₦1,360,000

Cevap

The total factory overheads to be charged in the Manufacturing Account is ₦1,360,000.
The correct total of ₦1,360,000 is derived by aggregating all indirect costs attributable to production: Indirect labor (₦420,000), Factory portion of rent after deducting prepayment [80% × (₦600,000 - ₦100,000) = ₦400,000], Factory machinery depreciation (₦250,000), Machine lubricants and consumables (₦90,000), and Factory insurance after adding accruals (₦160,000 + ₦40,000 = ₦200,000). Direct raw materials and direct wages belong to Prime Cost and are excluded.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the factory portion of rent and rates after adjusting for prepayments.
Total rent expense for the period = ₦600,000 - ₦100,000 (prepayment) = ₦500,000. Factory share (80%) = 80% × ₦500,000 = ₦400,000.
Prepaid expenses must be deducted to reflect only the current period's cost, and non-factory allocations must be excluded.
2
Calculate the total factory insurance expense including accruals.
Factory insurance for the period = ₦160,000 + ₦40,000 (accrual) = ₦200,000.
Accrued expenses incurred in the period must be added to the cash paid.
3
Identify all indirect manufacturing cost items and sum them up.
Indirect factory labor (₦420,000) + Apportioned factory rent (₦400,000) + Factory machinery depreciation (₦250,000) + Machine lubricants and consumables (₦90,000) + Adjusted factory insurance (₦200,000) = ₦1,360,000.
Factory overheads consist strictly of indirect manufacturing costs, excluding direct costs (raw materials and direct wages).

The Gross Profit for Danladi Traders is 111,000\text{₦}111,000.
The correct Gross Profit is 111,000\text{₦}111,000. Net Purchases equal Purchases (210,000)(\text{₦}210,000) plus Carriage Inwards (12,000)(\text{₦}12,000) minus Returns Outwards (8,000)(\text{₦}8,000), giving 214,000\text{₦}214,000. Adding Opening Inventory (45,000)(\text{₦}45,000) gives Cost of Goods Available for Sale of 259,000\text{₦}259,000. Subtracting Closing Inventory (50,000)(\text{₦}50,000) yields Cost of Goods Sold of 209,000\text{₦}209,000. Finally, subtracting Cost of Goods Sold from Sales (320,000)(\text{₦}320,000) gives 111,000\text{₦}111,000. Note that Carriage Outwards is an operating expense and does not affect Gross Profit.

What is the prime cost of production for Enugu Textile Mills Ltd for the year?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: ₦835,000

Cevap

The prime cost of production is ₦835,000.
Prime cost is the total of all direct production costs. First, calculate the cost of raw materials consumed: Opening Stock (₦150,000) + Purchases (₦420,000) + Carriage Inwards (₦30,000) - Closing Stock (₦90,000) = ₦510,000. Next, add all other direct costs, which are Direct Factory Wages (₦280,000) and Production Royalties (₦45,000). ₦510,000 + ₦280,000 + ₦45,000 gives ₦835,000. Indirect costs such as factory supervisor salary, factory rent, and plant depreciation are factory overheads and are excluded from prime cost.

Cevap

2,230,000\text{₦}2,230,000
Under the fluctuating capital account system, only one account (the Capital Account) is maintained for each partner. All capital injections, profit shares, salaries, and interest on capital increase the capital balance (credited), while all drawings and interest on drawings decrease the capital balance (debited). Adding all additions (1,500,000+300,000+450,000+75,000+120,000=2,445,000\text{₦}1,500,000 + \text{₦}300,000 + \text{₦}450,000 + \text{₦}75,000 + \text{₦}120,000 = \text{₦}2,445,000) and subtracting all deductions (200,000+15,000=215,000\text{₦}200,000 + \text{₦}15,000 = \text{₦}215,000) results in a closing credit balance of 2,230,000\text{₦}2,230,000.

A growing retail company recently switched from a manual ledger system to an enterprise computerized accounting package. The managing director believes that because the software automatically calculates account balances and posts entries, internal controls are no longer necessary. Which of the following is the most accurate assessment of this belief?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: It is incorrect because computerized systems still require controls over physical access, user permissions, and input data accuracy to prevent fraud and errors.

Cevap

It is incorrect because computerized systems still require controls over physical access, user permissions, and input data accuracy to prevent fraud and errors.
The assessment that internal controls are unnecessary in a computerized system is false. While computerized accounting systems automate arithmetic calculations and routine posting, they introduce distinct risks such as unauthorized file access, software manipulation, and erroneous input processing. Therefore, robust internal controls—including password restrictions, user roles, audit trails, and input verification—remain essential for maintaining data accuracy and security.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze how transaction processing differs between manual and computerized accounting systems.
In manual accounting, ledger posting and trial balance extraction require human manual calculation. In computerized systems, posting and arithmetic balancing occur instantly and automatically upon data input.
Understanding operational differences highlights where clerical errors are eliminated and where new system risks emerge.
2
Evaluate internal control requirements within a computerized environment.
Although computerized systems eliminate computational errors, they remain vulnerable to incorrect input ('Garbage In, Garbage Out'), unauthorized system access, software tampering, and lack of segregation of duties.
Automation shifts control focus from mathematical checking to access management, input validation, and system security.
3
Determine the validity of the managing director's belief.
The belief is false because computerization alters the form of internal controls required but does not eliminate the necessity for internal financial controls.
Effective internal control remains mandatory regardless of whether an accounting system is manual or computerized.

At the conclusion of a temporary joint venture formed to sell a batch of surplus equipment, one of the co-venturers agrees to take over the remaining unsold equipment at an agreed valuation for use in their private business. Which of the following correctly describes the double-entry accounting treatment for this takeover and the underlying joint venture feature it demonstrates?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Credit the Joint Venture Account with the agreed value and debit the individual co-venturer's account, demonstrating that co-venturers act as co-principals sharing venture assets without creating a separate legal entity.

Cevap

Credit the Joint Venture Account with the agreed value and debit the individual co-venturer's account, demonstrating that co-venturers act as co-principals sharing venture assets without creating a separate legal entity.
When a co-venturer takes over unsold inventory at the end of a joint venture, the Joint Venture Account is credited with the agreed valuation to reflect the income/value extracted from the venture, while the co-venturer's personal account is debited to charge them for the asset. This reflects the fundamental nature of a joint venture as a temporary agreement where participants act as co-principals rather than a separate legal entity.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the nature of unsold assets taken over by a co-venturer upon termination of a joint venture.
The asset is transferred from the joint venture pool to a co-venturer at an agreed valuation.
Since the joint venture is temporary and lacks a separate legal entity status, remaining assets belong directly to the co-venturers as co-principals.
2
Apply the double-entry accounting principle for asset takeover in joint venture accounts.
Credit the Joint Venture Account (reducing venture expenditure / recognizing value realized) and debit the receiving co-venturer's account.
This ensures the co-venturer is charged for the asset value received, allowing accurate calculation of final venture profit or loss.

Musa and Taraba entered into a joint venture to trade in grain, maintaining a separate set of books with a Joint Bank Account. Total sales revenue deposited into the Joint Bank Account amounted to \text{\mathbb{N}}850,000, while total venture purchases and expenses paid through the bank totaled \text{\mathbb{N}}600,000. If profits and losses are shared equally between Musa and Taraba, what is Musa's share of the net joint venture profit in Naira (\text{\mathbb{N}})?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 125000

Cevap

Musa's share of the net joint venture profit is 125,000 Naira.
The total profit of the joint venture is found by taking total revenues credited to the Joint Venture Account (\text{\mathbb{N}}850,000) minus total expenses debited to the Joint Venture Account (\text{\mathbb{N}}600,000), giving a net profit of \text{\mathbb{N}}250,000. Since profits are shared equally (1:1 ratio), Musa's share is half of \text{\mathbb{N}}250,000, which equals \text{\mathbb{N}}125,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the net profit of the joint venture
Net Profit = \text{\mathbb{N}}850,000 - \text{\mathbb{N}}600,000 = \text{\mathbb{N}}250,000
Net profit is calculated by deducting total joint venture costs and expenses from the total gross revenues.
2
Calculate Musa's share of the profit based on the equal profit-sharing agreement
Musa's Share = \text{\mathbb{N}}250,000 \times \frac{1}{2} = \text{\mathbb{N}}125,000
Since Musa and Taraba share profits equally, total net profit is divided by 2.

Each departmental accounting action directly aligns with its specific management purpose: comparing gross margins evaluates relative departmental efficiency; determining whether to discontinue a unit facilitates segment closure or expansion decisions; calculating bonuses based on divisional profit rewards managers accurately; and tracking inter-segment transfers maintains effective operational and inventory control.
Departmental accounting provides internal financial visibility across distinct operational sections. Comparing profit margins shows relative operational efficiency across units. Analyzing unit profitability informs decision-making regarding closure or expansion. Determining individual segment net profit allows fair performance-based rewards for section managers. Finally, tracking inter-departmental transfers ensures proper control over inventory and internal resources.

1
Calculate interest on capital for Aminu
₦135,000
Interest on opening capital of ₦1,200,000 at 10% per annum for 1 full year is ₦120,000. Interest on additional capital of ₦300,000 for 6 months (1st July to 31st December) at 10% per annum is ₦15,000 (₦300,000 × 10% × 6/12). Total interest on capital = ₦120,000 + ₦15,000 = ₦135,000.
2
Sum all credit entries in the fluctuating capital account
₦2,335,000
Under a fluctuating capital system, opening capital, current account balances, additions, and partner appropriations are combined. Total Credits = Opening Capital (₦1,200,000) + Opening Current Account (₦150,000) + Additional Capital (₦300,000) + Interest on Capital (₦135,000) + Partner Salary (₦200,000) + Share of Profit (₦350,000) = ₦2,335,000.
3
Sum all debit entries in the fluctuating capital account
₦192,000
Debit items that reduce partner equity include Drawings (₦180,000) + Interest on Drawings (₦12,000) = ₦192,000.
4
Calculate closing capital account balance
