Opening inventory of raw material of a manufacturing concern is Rs. 10,000, Purchase during the year is Rs. 2,00,000, Wages Rs. 50,000, Carriage Rs. 5,000, Factory overheads
Rs. 1,25,000 and closing inventory of raw material is Rs. 15,000. The amount to be transferred is
-
Solution
Lets look into the following:
Cost of Goods manufactured = Direct materials cost + Direct labor cost + Factory overhead cost +
Opening work in process inventory – Ending work in process inventoryCost of goods sold (COGS) = Cost of goods manufactured + Opening finished goods inventory – Ending
finished goods inventoryCost of sales means the price paid for the product, plus any additional costs required getting the goods into stock and ready for sale. It includes delivery and handling cost . The formula for calculating cost of sales is starting Inventory + Purchases – Ending Inventory.
Cost to Company (CTC) is the salary package of an employee. It indicates the total amount of expense an employer (organization) is spending for an employee in a year. CTC is not the actual salary of an employee, it also includes all the facilities an employee is getting during the service period.
Cost of goods sold involves finished goods and in the given question only details of raw materials are given so this cannot be cost of goods sold.
Cost of sales is similar to cost of goods sold. So this problem also not deal with same.
Cost to company has no relevance in the given problem .So here 10,000 (opening raw material) + 50,000 (wages) + 5,000 (carriage) + 2,00,000 (purchases of raw
materials) + 1,25,000 (factory overhead) – 15,000 (closing inventory of raw materials) = Rs. 3,75,000
will be transferred to cost of goods manufactured.
There was difference in the bank column of cash book and passbook by Rs. 2,500. On scrutiny it was found that interest of Rs. 500 charged directly by the bank was not entered
in the cash book. The same was adjusted in the cashbook before reconciliation statement.
Now, in the bank reconciliation statement, this interest of Rs. 500 is to be
-
Solution
A transaction relating to bank has to be recorded in both the books i.e. Cash Book and Pass Book but sometimes it happens that a bank transaction is recorded only in one book and not recorded simultaneously in other book this causes difference in the two balances. The causes for difference may be interest charged directly by bank not entered in cash book. This difference can be adjusted in the bank reconciliation statement or before the preparation of the reconciliation statement. If this difference is adjusted before the preparation of the reconciliation statement then it will not effect the reconciliation statement.
Here the interest of Rs. 500 charged directly by the bank was not entered in the cash book and the same was adjusted in the cashbook before reconciliation statement. So now there is no difference between the books because of this particular transaction and this interest will be ignored while preparing bank reconciliation statement.

-
Solution
A debt from accounts receivable that is recovered either in whole or in part after it has been written off
or classified as a bad debt is known as bad debt recovery . Because it generally generates a loss when
it is written off, a bad debt recovery usually produces income.

of the account is transferred to profit and loss account.So the bad debt recovered from Anshul will not
effect the account of Anshul and the rectification entry to be passed will be:
Anshul’s A/c Dr. Rs. 6,000
To Bad debts recovered A/c Rs. 6,000.
If repair cost of a building is Rs.15,000, whitewash expenses are Rs. 10,000, cost of extension of building is Rs.5,00,000 and cost of improvement in electrical wiring system is Rs. 25,000. The amount to be expensed is
-
Solution
Building improvements are capital events that materially extend the useful life of a building or increase the value of a building, or both. A building improvement should be capitalized as a betterment and recorded as an addition of value to the existing building .
Expenditures to be capitalized as improvements to buildings include
• Additions to buildings, such as expansions, extensions, enlargements, etc.
• Installation or upgrade of plumbing and electrical wiring.
Here cost of extension of building is Rs. 5,00,000 and cost of improvement in electric wiring system is Rs.
25,000. These 2 expenses will be capitalized.
And the amount to be expensed will be:
Repair cost 15,000
Whitewash 10,000
Total expenses = 15,000 + 10,000 = Rs. 25,000

Atul purchased goods costing Rs. 50,000 at an invoice price, which is 50% above cost. On invoice price he enjoyed 15% trade discount and Rs. 3,750 cash discount on cash payment of goods in lump sum at the time of purchase. The purchase price to be recorded in the books before cash discount will be
-
Solution
Trade discounts are generally ignored for accounting purposes in that they are omitted from accounting records. Therefore, purchases, along with any payables in the case of a credit purchase, are recorded net of any trade discounts offered.
Here the cost of goods purchased = 50,000
Invoice price will be = 50,000 + 50% of 50,000 = 75,000
Trade discount = 15% of 75,000 = Rs. 11,250
Thus purchases to be recorded before cash discount = invoice price –trade discount = 75,000 – 11,250 = Rs. 63,750.

Requirements may include paying any allotment or call money owed, or avoiding selling or transferring shares during a restricted period. When a share is forfeited, the shareholder no longer owes any remaining balance, surrenders any potential capital gain on the shares and the shares become the property of the issuing company. The issuing company can re-issue forfeited shares at par, a premium or a discount as determined by the board of directors. Here excess money was refunded to them after adjustment for further calls. So this is the case of forfeiture of shares.
