      Rs. 71,000

    Correct Answer
    A. Rs. 1, 29,000
    Explanation
    The closing written down value (WDV) can be calculated by subtracting the depreciation during the year from the opening written down value and adding the cost of the new machine. In this case, the opening WDV is Rs. 1,00,000, the cost of the new machine is Rs. 50,000, and the depreciation during the year is Rs. 21,000. Therefore, the closing WDV would be Rs. 1,00,000 + Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 21,000 = Rs. 1,29,000.

The accountant is responsible for comparing the transactions recorded in the company's books with the transactions reflected in the bank statement, identifying any discrepancies, and making necessary adjustments. This ensures that the bank balance is accurate and any differences are accounted for.

It lists all the transactions that have not yet been recorded in the cash book, such as outstanding checks, deposits in transit, bank charges, and interest earned. By comparing the two balances and making necessary adjustments, the Bank Reconciliation Statement ensures that the cash book and bank statement are in agreement.

    • D.

      Rs. 225,000

    Correct Answer
    B. Rs. 215,000
    Explanation
    The cost of material consumed can be calculated by subtracting the closing stock of raw material from the sum of the opening stock and purchases of raw material. In this case, the opening stock is Rs. 100,000 and the purchases of raw material is Rs. 200,000, making the total available material Rs. 300,000. Subtracting the closing stock of Rs. 85,000 from this gives us Rs. 215,000, which is the cost of material consumed.

    Correct Answer
    A. Rs. 60,000 loss
    Explanation
    The profit or loss on the disposal of the fixed asset can be calculated by subtracting the sale price from the written down value of the asset. In this case, the written down value of the asset after 5 years is Rs. 75,000 and the sale price is Rs. 15,000. Therefore, the loss on the disposal of the fixed asset is Rs. 60,000.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Which of the following account will be credited, when the goods are purchased on cash?

    • A.

      Stock account

    • B.

      Cash account

    • C.

      Supplier account

    • D.

      Work in process account

    Correct Answer
    B. Cash account
    Explanation
    When goods are purchased on cash, the amount paid will be credited to the Cash account. This is because the Cash account represents the company's cash balance, and when cash is paid out, the balance in the Cash account decreases. Therefore, the Cash account will be credited to reflect the decrease in cash due to the purchase of goods.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    The cost of sales is Rs. 60,000, sales are Rs. 95,000 and operating expenses are Rs. 20,000 during the year, what would be the value of Gross Profit?

    • D.

      Rs. 60,000

    Correct Answer
    B. Rs. 35,000
    Explanation
    The value of Gross Profit can be calculated by subtracting the cost of sales from the sales. In this case, the cost of sales is Rs. 60,000 and the sales are Rs. 95,000. Therefore, the Gross Profit would be Rs. 35,000 (Rs. 95,000 - Rs. 60,000).

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    The cost of sales is Rs. 60,000, sales are Rs. 95,000 and operating expenses are Rs.20,000 during the year. What would be the Net Profit?

    • D.

      Rs. 60,000

    Correct Answer
    A. Rs.15,000
    Explanation
    The net profit can be calculated by subtracting the cost of sales and operating expenses from the sales. In this case, the cost of sales is Rs. 60,000 and the operating expenses are Rs. 20,000. Therefore, the net profit would be Rs. 95,000 (sales) - Rs. 60,000 (cost of sales) - Rs. 20,000 (operating expenses) = Rs. 15,000.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Which of the following account balance will be shown on debit side of Trial Balance? (It is assumed that all account balances are shown on normal balance).

    • C.

      Accounts payable account

    • D.

      Cash account

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The cash account will be shown on the debit side of the trial balance because it represents an asset. In accounting, assets are typically recorded on the debit side, while liabilities and equity are recorded on the credit side. Therefore, the cash account, which represents an asset, will be shown on the debit side of the trial balance.

    Explanation
    The amount of salary paid to Mr. Sohail should be debited to the Salaries account. This is because the Salaries account is used to record all the salaries paid to employees. By debiting the Salaries account, it will accurately reflect the amount of money paid out for salaries in the financial records.

    When a business buys goods on credit from Mr. Ali, it means that the business owes money to Mr. Ali for the goods purchased. In accounting terms, this is recorded as a liability. The account that will be credited in this transaction is Mr. Ali account, as it represents the amount owed to him.

    Rate this question:

    • B.

      Subtracted from current assets

    • C.

      Subtracted from liabilities

    • D.

      Subtracted from capital

    Correct Answer
    D. Subtracted from capital
    Explanation
    The unfavorable balance of the Profit and Loss account represents a loss incurred by the business. Since losses reduce the capital of the business, the unfavorable balance should be subtracted from the capital. This adjustment reflects the decrease in the owner's equity due to the loss.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Which of the following is NOT an example of Current Asset?

    • A.

      Bank Overdraft

    • B.

      Accounts Receivable

    • C.

      Notes Receivable

    • D.

      Prepaid Expenses

    Correct Answer
    A. Bank Overdraft
    Explanation
    A bank overdraft is not an example of a current asset because it represents a liability rather than an asset. A bank overdraft occurs when a company withdraws more money from its bank account than it currently has available, resulting in a negative balance. This negative balance represents a debt owed by the company to the bank, making it a liability. In contrast, accounts receivable, notes receivable, and prepaid expenses are all examples of current assets that represent the company's right to receive cash or other assets within a year.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    Which one of the following is NOT prepared by Non profit organizations?

    • A.

      Profit & Loss account

    • B.

      Income & Expenditure account

    • C.

      Receipts & Payments account

    • D.

      Balance Sheet

    Correct Answer
    A. Profit & Loss account
    Explanation
    Nonprofit organizations, by definition, do not aim to generate profits. They focus on fulfilling a social or charitable mission rather than making money. Therefore, they do not prepare Profit & Loss accounts, which are used to measure the profitability of a business or organization. Instead, nonprofits typically prepare an Income & Expenditure account to track their revenue and expenses, a Receipts & Payments account to record their cash inflows and outflows, and a Balance Sheet to provide a snapshot of their financial position.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    When a Liability is reduced or decreased, it is recorded on the:

    • A.

      Right or debit side of the account

    • B.

      Left or debit side of the account

    • C.

      Left or credit side of the account

    • D.

      Right or credit side of the account

    Correct Answer
    B. Left or debit side of the account
    Explanation
    When a liability is reduced or decreased, it is recorded on the left or debit side of the account. This is because liabilities have a normal credit balance, meaning they increase on the credit side and decrease on the debit side. By recording the reduction on the debit side, it helps maintain the balance of the account and accurately reflects the decrease in the liability.

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    What will be the effect on accounting equation, when payment is made to the creditor of the business?

    • A.

      Decrease in an asset, decrease in a liability

    • B.

      Increase in an asset, increase in a liability

    • C.

    • D.

      Increase in an asset, increase in owner's equity

    Correct Answer
    A. Decrease in an asset, decrease in a liability
    Explanation
    When a payment is made to the creditor of the business, it means that the business is using its assets (cash) to decrease its liabilities (creditor's payable). As a result, there is a decrease in an asset (cash) and a decrease in a liability (creditor's payable), which is reflected in the accounting equation (Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity).

    Commercial Accounting is based on:

    • A.

      Both single and double entry book keeping

    • D.

      Cash basis of book keeping

    Correct Answer
    B. Double entry book keeping
    Explanation
    Double entry bookkeeping is the correct answer because it is the foundation of commercial accounting. This method involves recording every financial transaction in at least two accounts, with one account debited and another credited. This ensures that the accounting equation (assets = liabilities + equity) remains in balance. Double entry bookkeeping provides a comprehensive and accurate record of a business's financial transactions, allowing for the preparation of financial statements and analysis of the company's performance. It is widely used in commercial accounting to maintain accurate and reliable financial records.

    Cost incurred for the maintenance of shop is considered as _________.

    • A.

      Deferred expense

    • B.

      Capital expense

    • C.

      Revenue expense

    • D.

      Preliminary expense

    Correct Answer
    C. Revenue expense
    Explanation
    The cost incurred for the maintenance of a shop is considered a revenue expense. Revenue expenses are the costs that a business incurs in its day-to-day operations to generate revenue. These expenses are deducted from the revenue earned in the same accounting period and are not expected to provide long-term benefits. Maintenance costs, such as repairs, cleaning, and regular upkeep of the shop, are necessary expenses to keep the business running smoothly and generate revenue in the short term. Therefore, they fall under the category of revenue expenses.

    • D.

      None of the given options

    Correct Answer
    C. Both cash and accrual accounting
    Explanation
    The double entry accounting system includes both cash and accrual accounting.

By using both methods, the double entry system provides a more comprehensive and accurate representation of a company's financial transactions and performance.

    • A.

      Revenue

    • B.

      Expense

    • C.

    Explanation
    Expense refers to the cost of goods and services that are used up in the process of generating revenue. It represents the outflow of resources from a company to generate income. Expenses include various costs such as salaries, rent, utilities, and raw materials. By deducting expenses from revenue, a company can determine its net income or profit. Therefore, expense is the correct answer in this context as it accurately describes the cost of goods and services used up in obtaining revenue.

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    B. Accrual Accounting
    Explanation
    Accrual accounting is an accounting system in which events are recorded as and when they occur. This means that transactions are recorded when they are incurred, regardless of when the cash is received or paid. It provides a more accurate picture of a company's financial position and performance by recognizing revenues and expenses in the period they are earned or incurred, rather than when the cash is exchanged. This method is widely used by businesses to comply with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Cash accounting, on the other hand, records transactions only when cash is received or paid, making it less accurate and less commonly used.

      Cash book will show double balance

    • D.

      Bank book will show double balance

    Correct Answer
    A. Cash book will show less balance & bank book will show more
    Explanation
    When a cheque drawn to a creditor is not paid by the bank, it means that the payment is not deducted from the bank account. As a result, the cash book will show a higher balance because the payment is still recorded as an outgoing transaction. On the other hand, the bank book will show a lower balance because the payment was not processed by the bank. Therefore, the correct answer is that the cash book will show less balance and the bank book will show more.

    The estimated value at which an asset is expected to be sold after the end of its useful life is called:

    • A.

      Residual value

    • B.

      Salvage Value

    • C.

    • D.

      All of the given options

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the given options
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "All of the given options." This is because all three terms - residual value, salvage value, and scrap value - refer to the estimated value at which an asset is expected to be sold after the end of its useful life. These terms are often used interchangeably in accounting and finance to represent the same concept.

    Mr. “A” borrowed money from bank; this transaction involves which one of the following accounts:

    • A.

      Cash & Mr. A

    • B.

    • C.

      Drawing & Mr. A

    • D.

      Cash & Bank

    Correct Answer
    D. Cash & Bank
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Cash & Bank. When Mr. A borrows money from the bank, it implies that cash is received by Mr. A and the bank's liability towards Mr. A increases. Therefore, the transaction involves both the Cash account (as it increases) and the Bank account (as it decreases).

    Rate this question:

  • 39. 

    The beginning balance of the Owner’s Equity was Rs.7,500. The dividends paid to stockholders were Rs.1,500. The ending balance of the Owner’s Equity is Rs.5,000. What was the Net Income or Net Loss for the accounting period?

    • A.

      Net Loss of Rs. 1,000

    • B.

      Net Income of Rs. 1,000

    • C.

      Net Loss of Rs. 3,000

    • D.

      Net Income of Rs. 3,000

    Correct Answer
    B. Net Income of Rs. 1,000
    Explanation
    The beginning balance of Owner's Equity was Rs.7,500. Dividends paid to stockholders were Rs.1,500. The ending balance of Owner's Equity is Rs.5,000. To find the Net Income or Net Loss, we need to calculate the change in Owner's Equity. The change in Owner's Equity can be calculated by subtracting the dividends paid from the beginning balance and adding the ending balance. Therefore, the change in Owner's Equity is (7500 - 1500) + 5000 = 11,000. Since the ending balance is lower than the beginning balance, there is a Net Loss. The Net Loss is the difference between the change in Owner's Equity and the dividends paid, which is 11,000 - 1,500 = Rs.1,000. Therefore, the correct answer is Net Income of Rs. 1,000.

    Rate this question:

  • 40. 

    The company sold Rs. 400,000 of merchandise for cash and Rs.120,000 of merchandise to credit customers who will pay for the merchandise in a later time period. How much revenue should be reported on the income statement of the current time period under Cash Basis of Accounting?

    • A.

      Rs. 280,000

    • B.

      Rs. 520,000

    • C.

      Rs. 400,000

    • D.

      Rs. 120,000

    Correct Answer
    C. Rs. 400,000
    Explanation
    The revenue that should be reported on the income statement of the current time period under the Cash Basis of Accounting is Rs. 400,000. This is because the Cash Basis of Accounting recognizes revenue when cash is received, regardless of whether it is from cash sales or credit sales. In this case, the company sold Rs. 400,000 of merchandise for cash, so this amount should be reported as revenue on the income statement. The Rs. 120,000 of merchandise sold to credit customers will be recognized as revenue in the later time period when the customers actually pay for the merchandise.

    Rate this question:

  • 41. 

    Which one of the following statement is wrong about Current liabilities?

    • A.

      These are due within one year

    • B.

      These are short-term loans

    • C.

      A vague term for loans to be repaid by an enterprise after twelve months

    • D.

      In working capital, these are deducted from assets

    Correct Answer
    C. A vague term for loans to be repaid by an enterprise after twelve months
    Explanation
    The statement "A vague term for loans to be repaid by an enterprise after twelve months" is incorrect because current liabilities are obligations that are due within one year, not after twelve months. Current liabilities include short-term loans and other obligations that need to be settled within a year. In working capital calculations, current liabilities are deducted from assets to determine the net working capital of a company.
