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
Shares that are offered to existing shareholders at a discounted price are called a "right issue." This is a type of securities offering that allows existing shareholders the opportunity to purchase additional shares of the company's stock, typically at a price lower than the current market price. The purpose of a right issue is to raise capital for the company and provide existing shareholders with the opportunity to increase their ownership in the company at a favorable price. In a right issue, the company will typically set a record date, which determines which shareholders are eligible to participate in the offering. The shares are then offered to these eligible shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings. The shareholders have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the additional shares. In conclusion, a right issue is a type of securities offering where existing shareholders are offered the opportunity to purchase additional shares of a company's stock at a discounted price, with the goal of raising capital for the company.
Question 11 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.
Question 12 Report

Answer Details
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.

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."
Question 15 Report
Use the following to answer this question.
Industry ltd, issued 100,000 shares at ₦1 each out of its Authorized share capital of ₦200,000 at ₦1 each. At the of the first call, all shareholders paid in full, except for two shareholder who owes ₦20,000.
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.

Cost of raw materials consumed is
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.
Question 17 Report
Discount received is charge to
Answer Details
Discount received is a reduction in the amount paid for goods or services purchased by a company. This reduction is usually given by a supplier to a customer as an incentive to encourage prompt payment or to build customer loyalty. In accounting, discount received is considered a gain for the company and is therefore credited to the profit and loss account. The profit and loss account is an account that records all revenues and gains on one side, and all expenses and losses on the other side, for a particular period. By recording discount received in the profit and loss account, the company can track and report its total gains for a specific period, and also calculate the net profit or loss for that period. This helps the company to make informed decisions about its operations and financial position, and to meet its reporting requirements. Therefore, the correct answer is option (B) - profit and loss account. Discount received is a gain for the company, and it is credited to the profit and loss account to be recorded as part of the company's total gains and revenues for a specific period.
Question 18 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.

Expenses are to be shared in the ratio of sales.
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 20 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.

It has been decided to value goodwill at 2 years purchase of average profit for the past 4 years. The value of goodwill is
Answer Details
To calculate the value of goodwill, we need to first calculate the average profit for the past 4 years. We can do this by adding up the profits for each year and then dividing by 4: Average profit = (14,000 + 24,000 + 10,000 + 16,000) / 4 = 16,000 Next, we need to calculate 2 years' purchase of the average profit: 2 x 16,000 = 32,000 Therefore, the value of goodwill is ₦32,000. This is because the value of goodwill is determined by the number of years' purchase of the average profit. Among the options given, the correct answer is 32,000.
Question 24 Report

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.
Question 25 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.

Examples of capital expenditures include the purchase of equipment, machinery, property, or buildings. Based on the information provided in the question, the following expenditures are capital expenditures: - Sinking of boreholes - Purchase of a motor car - Purchase of beds The total amount spent on these items is ₦2,900,000 + ₦920,000 + ₦425,000 = ₦4,245,000. Therefore, capital expenditure in this case is ₦4,245,000. In conclusion, capital expenditures are expenditures made to acquire or improve long-term assets that are expected to provide benefits over several years. Based on the information provided, the capital expenditure in this case is ₦4,245,000.

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
Accounting standards are issued at the international level by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The IASB is an independent organization that sets accounting standards, known as International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), for companies to follow when preparing their financial statements. These standards help ensure that financial information is transparent and comparable across different companies and countries. The IASB operates under the oversight of the IFRS Foundation, which provides funding and governance. The Standards Advisory Council and Standing Interpretations Committee are both bodies that provide advice and guidance to the IASB, but they do not have the authority to issue accounting standards. In summary, the IASB is the organization responsible for setting international accounting standards, which are designed to promote transparency and comparability in financial reporting by companies around the world.
Question 30 Report

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.

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 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.

In the preparation of a statement of profit, the opening capital is the amount of money a business had at the beginning of a given period, and the closing capital is the amount of money a business has at the end of that same period. If the opening capital is greater than the closing capital, it means that the business has used more money than it has received during the period, leading to a decrease in its overall capital. This decrease in capital is referred to as a "loss." Therefore, if the opening capital is greater than the closing capital, it indicates that the business has suffered a loss during the period.
