Solution

Sure, here is the solution:

Step 1: Calculate the Gross Profit

Trading Account for the year ended 31 October 2018

Sales: 150,000 Less: Cost of Goods Sold Opening Stock: 10,000 Add: Purchases: 80,000 Less: Closing Stock: 15,000 Total Cost of Goods Sold: 75,000

Gross Profit: 75,000

Step 2: Calculate the Net Profit

Profit and Loss Account for the year ended 31 October 2018

Gross Profit: 75,000 Less: Expenses Depreciation: 900 (10% of 9,000) Electricity: 2,000 Insurance: 1,500 Miscellaneous expenses: 65,800 Bad debts: 6,000 Provision for doubtful debts: 1,500 (10% of (21,000-6,000)) Total Expenses: 77,700

Net Loss: 2,700

Step 3: Prepare the Balance Sheet

Balance Sheet as at 31 October 2018

Fixed Assets Furniture at cost: 9,000 Less: Accumulated Depreciation: 4,500 (3,600 + 900) Net Book Value of Furniture: 4,500

Current Assets Stock: 15,000 Trade Debtors: 13,500 (21,000 - 6,000 - 1,500) Bank: 4,000 Prepaid Insurance: 100 Total Current Assets: 32,600

Less: Current Liabilities Trade Creditors: 20,000 Electricity Payable: 600 Net Current Assets: 12,000

Net Assets: 16,500

Financed by: Capital: 20,500 Add: Net Loss: 2,700 Less: Drawings: 10,000 Adjusted Capital: 13,200
