Solution
To prepare the Trading Account, Balance Sheet, and Profit and Loss Account, we need to adjust the given trial balance with the additional information provided. Here's how to do it:
Step 1: Adjustments for the Trading Account
- Closing stock is Rs. 1,50,000. This is a current asset and will be shown on the credit side of the Trading Account and also in the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
- Purchases are Rs. 2,50,000. This will be shown on the debit side of the Trading Account.
Step 2: Adjustments for the Profit and Loss Account
- Salaries are Rs. 51,000 and there is an outstanding amount of Rs. 9,000. So, the total amount of salaries is Rs. 60,000 (51,000 + 9,000). This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
- Wages are Rs. 20,000 and there is an outstanding amount of Rs. 2,000. So, the total amount of wages is Rs. 22,000 (20,000 + 2,000). This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
- Write off bad debts of Rs. 10,000. This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
- Create provision for bad debts @ 5% on debtors. Debtors are Rs. 1,00,000. So, provision for bad debts is Rs. 5,000 (5% of 1,00,000). This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
- Insurance is Rs. 5,000 and there is a prepaid amount of Rs. 2,500. So, the total amount of insurance is Rs. 2,500 (5,000 - 2,500). This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
- Depreciate furniture by 10%. Furniture is Rs. 30,000. So, depreciation is Rs. 3,000 (10% of 30,000). This will be shown on the debit side of the Profit and Loss Account.
Step 3: Adjustments for the Balance Sheet
- Capital is Rs. 4,00,000. This will be shown on the liabilities side of the Balance Sheet.
- 12% Loan is Rs. 50,000. This will be shown on the liabilities side of the Balance Sheet.
- Creditors are Rs. 50,000. This will be shown on the liabilities side of the Balance Sheet.
- Bills payable are Rs. 134,000. This will be shown on the liabilities side of the Balance Sheet.
- Building is Rs. 2,00,000. This will be shown on the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
- 10% Investment is Rs. 50,000. This will be shown on the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
- Debtors are Rs. 1,00,000. This will be shown on the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
- Cash balance is Rs. 10,500. This will be shown on the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
- Bills receivable are Rs. 30,000. This will be shown on the assets side of the Balance Sheet.
After making these adjustments, you can prepare the Trading Account, Balance Sheet, and Profit and Loss Account.
