Answer Details
In the preparation of accounting records, the owners of the business and the business concerned are treated as separate legal entities. This means that the business is treated as a distinct entity from its owners, and is recognized as having its own financial position, income, and expenses. This is because the business is a separate legal entity, meaning it has its own legal status and is capable of entering into contracts and owning property. For example, if a business takes out a loan, the debt belongs to the business and not to the individual owners. Similarly, if the business makes a profit, the profit belongs to the business and not directly to the owners. Separating the business from its owners in this way allows for a clear and accurate picture of the financial performance of the business, and enables the owners to assess the success of the business as a whole. It also ensures that the business is held responsible for its financial obligations and liabilities, rather than the individual owners.

16,800 15,000 6,200 |
|
| 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.
Question 4 Report
Accounts can be classified into
Answer Details
Accounts can be classified into two main categories: personal accounts and impersonal accounts. 1. Personal accounts: These accounts are used to record transactions related to individuals, firms, or companies. Personal accounts can be further classified into two types: - Natural personal accounts: These accounts are related to individuals, such as customers, suppliers, employees, and owners. - Artificial personal accounts: These accounts are related to firms or companies, such as banks, insurance companies, and government organizations. 2. Impersonal accounts: These accounts are used to record transactions that do not involve any individual or firm. Impersonal accounts can be further classified into three types: - Real accounts: These accounts are related to assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, as well as liabilities and capital. - Nominal accounts: These accounts are related to expenses, revenues, gains, and losses. - Representative personal accounts: These accounts are used to record transactions related to a group or category of individuals, such as sales, purchases, and returns. Therefore, the correct option among the given choices is "personal and impersonal account."

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 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.
Question 10 Report
Show how the following transaction will be recorded applying the double entry principle:
Rent ₦50,000 was paid by Mr. Roi to his landlord on 1st July, 20 × 7 by cheque.
Answer Details
The correct entry for the transaction where Mr. Roi pays rent of ₦50,000 to his landlord on July 1st, 20x7 by cheque, using the double entry principle would be: - Dr Rent A/c; Cr Bank A/c The transaction has two effects: it decreases Mr. Roi's cash (Bank A/c) balance by ₦50,000 and increases the landlord's Rent A/c balance by the same amount. Applying the double entry principle, we need to record both of these effects in the accounts. Therefore, we will debit Rent A/c with ₦50,000 as it is an expense and credit Bank A/c with the same amount as it is a decrease in cash. This will ensure that the accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Equity) remains balanced. In summary, when Mr. Roi pays rent by cheque, we record a debit of ₦50,000 to Rent A/c and a credit of ₦50,000 to Bank A/c to maintain the balance of the accounting equation.

Question 15 Report
A company goods sent to branch at invoiced price is ₦30,870 at cost plus 25%. The mark-up is
Answer Details
The mark-up in this scenario is ₦6,174. When a company sells goods to its branch, it usually does so at a price that is higher than the cost price, to make a profit. In this case, the invoiced price of the goods sent to the branch is ₦30,870, which includes a markup of 25% on the cost price. To find the cost price, we can use the following formula: Cost price = Invoiced price / (1 + Markup percentage) Plugging in the values, we get: Cost price = ₦30,870 / (1 + 25%) = ₦24,696 Now, to find the markup, we can use the following formula: Markup = Invoiced price - Cost price Plugging in the values, we get: Markup = ₦30,870 - ₦24,696 = ₦6,174 Therefore, the mark-up in this scenario is ₦6,174. This represents the amount that the company has added to the cost price of the goods to arrive at the invoiced price that it charged to its branch.

What was the gross profit?
Answer Details
To calculate the gross profit, we need to subtract the cost of goods sold (COGS) from the total revenue (sales). COGS represents the cost of the products that were sold during the period, and it is calculated as: COGS = Opening stock + Purchases - Closing stock In this case, the values are: COGS = ₦20,000 + ₦70,000 - ₦15,000 = ₦75,000 Total revenue (sales) is given as ₦100,000. Therefore, the gross profit can be calculated as: Gross profit = Total revenue - COGS = ₦100,000 - ₦75,000 = ₦25,000 Hence, the answer is option (D) ₦25,000.

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.

The cost of a machine is ₦10,000. The residual value is ₦4,000. It is expected to last for 4 years. Using the straight line method, what is the amount of depreciation charged per annum?
Answer Details
The straight line method of depreciation is a simple way of calculating the amount of depreciation to be charged each year for an asset. To use this method, we subtract the residual value (the value of the asset after it has been fully depreciated) from the original cost of the asset, and then divide this by the number of years the asset is expected to last. So, for the machine in this question: - Original cost: ₦10,000 - Residual value: ₦4,000 - Years expected to last: 4 The amount of depreciation to be charged per year would be: ₦10,000 - ₦4,000 = ₦6,000 ₦6,000 ÷ 4 years = ₦1,500 So, the amount of depreciation charged per annum is ₦1,500.

Answer Details
One of the objectives of maintaining the account of a branch at the head office is to access the performance of the branches. When a company has several branches, it is essential to keep track of the financial performance of each branch to ensure that they are operating efficiently and generating profits. By maintaining the account of each branch at the head office, the management can easily access the financial records of each branch and compare them to identify the profitable and non-profitable branches. The head office can analyze the financial statements of each branch, including the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement, to determine the financial health of the branch. This information can help the head office make informed decisions, such as allocating resources to profitable branches or taking corrective actions to improve the performance of non-profitable branches. In summary, maintaining the account of a branch at the head office allows the management to access the financial performance of each branch, which is essential for making informed decisions and ensuring the profitability of the entire organization.

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
The statement in a double entry system that records all the transactions of one specific class during a period is called a ledger. A ledger is a book or a collection of accounts in which a business records its financial transactions. It contains all the financial information related to a specific account, such as sales, purchases, expenses, and revenues. In a double entry system, every transaction affects at least two accounts, one being debited and the other credited. These debits and credits are recorded in the ledger in separate columns, which allows for the calculation of the account balance at any given time. For example, a business might have a ledger for its sales transactions, in which all the sales made during a particular period are recorded. Each sale is recorded in the ledger as a debit to the customer's account and a credit to the sales account. At the end of the period, the balance in the sales account represents the total amount of sales made during that period. Overall, the ledger is an important tool in accounting as it provides a detailed record of all financial transactions, allowing businesses to monitor their financial performance and make informed decisions.
Question 32 Report
Discount received is apportioned to each department on the basis of
Answer Details
Discount received is usually apportioned to each department on the basis of their purchases. The reason for this is that the discount is typically given by the supplier as a percentage of the total value of goods purchased. Therefore, the more a department purchases from the supplier, the more discount they receive. For example, if a department purchases $10,000 worth of goods and the supplier offers a 5% discount, the department would receive a discount of $500. If another department purchases $5,000 worth of goods from the same supplier, they would only receive a discount of $250. By apportioning the discount on the basis of purchases, each department receives a fair share of the discount based on their contribution to the total purchases from the supplier. This helps to ensure that the discount is allocated in a way that reflects the actual purchasing activity of each department.

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.

The cost of goods for department B is
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.
Question 35 Report
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.

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.

Answer Details
The two recognized accounting bases are Accrual and Cash. Accrual accounting recognizes economic events regardless of when payment is received or made. This means that transactions are recorded in the accounts when they occur, regardless of when the cash is received or paid. Cash accounting, on the other hand, only recognizes transactions when cash is received or paid. This means that transactions are only recorded in the accounts when the cash changes hands. In simple terms, accrual accounting provides a more complete picture of a company's financial performance, while cash accounting is more focused on the company's actual cash flow.

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.
