1. Srishti, Nitya and Anand were partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 3 : 2 : 1. Srishti retired from the firm selling her share of profits to Nitya and Anand in the ratio of 2 : 1. The new profit sharing ratio between Nitya and Anand will be:

(A) 3 : 2

(B) 17 : 11

(D) 19 : 11

Answer: (C) 2 : 1

Explanation:
Old Ratio = 3 : 2 : 1
Acquiring Ratio of Nitya and Anand = 2 : 1
Share Acquired by Nitya = \frac{3}{6}\times\frac{2}{3}=\frac{1}{3}
Share Acquired By Anand = \frac{3}{6}\times\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{6}
New Share of Nitya = \frac{2}{6}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}
New Share of Anand = \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

2. Which of the following is NOT a revenue receipt?

4. Aditya and Shiv were partners in a firm with capitals of ₹ 3,00,000 and ₹ 2,00,000, respectively. Naina was admitted as a new partner for \frac{1}{4}th share in the profits of the firm. Naina brought ₹ 1,20,000 for her share of goodwill premium and ₹ 2,40,000 for her capital. The amount of goodwill premium credited to Aditya will be:

(A) ₹ 40,000

(B) ₹ 30,000

(D) ₹ 60,000

Answer: (D) ₹ 60,000

Explanation:
Question is silent regarding the Old profit-sharing ratio, so it assumed that Old Ratio is 1 : 1.
Since the share of a new partner is given, but no information about the sacrificing ratio of old partners is given, it is assumed that the new partner has acquired the share from the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio ,i.e., 1 : 1.
Therefore, the Premium for Goodwill is distributed equally between Aditya and Shiv,i.e., \frac{1,20,000}{2}=₹60,000

5. Distinguish between Income and Expenditure Account and Receipts and Payments Account on the basis of ‘Nature of items’.

Answer: Income and Expenditure Account records only items of Revenue nature, whereas the Receipts and Payments Account records items of both Capital and Revenue nature.

6. Vidit and Seema were partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 3 : 2. Their capitals were ₹ 1,20,000 and ₹ 2,40,000 respectively. They were entitled to interest on capitals @ 10% p.a. The firm earned a profit of ₹ 18,000 during the year. The interest on Vidit’s capital will be:

(A) ₹ 12,000

(B) ₹ 10,800

(D) ₹ 6,000

Answer: (D) ₹ 6,000

Explanation:
Interest on Capital of Vidit = 1,20,000\times\frac{10}{100}=₹12,000
Interest on Capital of Seema = 2,40,000\times\frac{10}{100}=₹24,000
Total Interest on Capital of both the partners,i.e., ₹ 36,000 is more than the profit earned by the firm ,i.e.,₹ 18,000, therefore Interest is allowed only to the extent of profit in the ratio of interest on capital of each partners,i.e., 1 : 2.
Now, Interest on Capital of Vidit = 18,000\times\frac{1}{3}=₹6,000

7. At the time of admission of a new partner in the firm, the new partner compensates the old partners for their loss of share in the super-profits of the firm for which he brings in an additional amount which is known as ___________ .

(A) ₹ 80,000

(B) ₹ 3,20,000

(D) ₹ 2,40,000

Answer: (C) ₹ 5,60,000

(A) ₹ 4,00,000

(B) ₹ 2,00,000

(D) ₹ 1,00,000

Answer: (D) ₹ 1,00,000

Explanation:
As per SEBI Guidelines, a company shall create DRR equal to 25% of the amount of debentures issued before starting the redemption process.
Therefore, in this question amount transferred to Debenture Redemption Reserve = 25% of 4,00,000 = ₹ 1,00,000.

11. ‘Interest paid on debentures is a charge against the profits of the company.’ Is this statement correct? Give reason in support of your answer.

15. Yash and Karan were partners in an interior designer firm. Their fixed capitals were ₹ 6,00,000 and ₹ 4,00,000 respectively. There were credit balances in their current accounts of ₹ 4,00,000 and ₹ 5,00,000, respectively. The firm had a balance of ₹ 1,00,000 in General Reserve. The firm did not have any liability. They admitted Radhika into a partnership for \frac{1}{4} th share in the profits of the firm. The average profits of the firm for the last five years were ₹ 5,00,000. Calculate the value of goodwill of the firm by a capitalization of the average profits method. The normal rate of return in the business is 10%.

Answer:

Average Profit = ₹ 5,00,000.

Capitalised Value of the Average Profit = 5,00,000\times\frac{100}{10}=₹50,00,000

Capital Employed = Capital and Current account balances of both the partners and General Reserve.

Capital Employed = 6,00,000 + 4,00,000 + 4,00,000 + 5,00,000 + 1,00,000 = ₹ 20,00,000

Goodwill = Capitalised Value of the Average Profit − Capital Employed (Net Assets)

Goodwill = 50,00,000 − 20,00,000 = ₹30,00,000

Working Note:

Calculation of Sacrificing/Gaining Ratio:

Samiksha: \frac{5}{10}-\frac{2}{10}=\frac{3}{10} (Sacrifice)

Ash: \frac{3}{10}-\frac{5}{10}=\frac{2}{10} (Gain)

Divya: \frac{2}{10}-\frac{3}{10}=\frac{1}{10} (Gain)

Goodwill to be brought in =3,00,000\times\frac{3}{10}=90,000

Ash's share of Goodwill = 90,000\times\frac{2}{3}= 60,000

Divya's share of Goodwill = 90,000\times\frac{1}{3}= 30,000

Gaining Ratio of Kavita = \frac{4}{5}-\frac{4}{10}=\frac{4}{10}

Gaining Ratio of Vishesh = \frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{10}

2. Calculating Profit till the date of death:

Average Profit of last two years = \frac{1,50,000+50,000}{2}=₹1,00,000

Naveen's Share of profit till June 30 = 1,00,000\times\frac{5}{10}\times\frac{3}{12}=₹12,500

3. Calculating Share of Goodwill of Naveen:

Value of Goodwill = 1,00,000\times2=₹2,00,000

Naveen Share of Goodwill = 2,00,000\times\frac{5}{10}=₹1,00,000

Goodwill payable by Kavita = 1,00,000\times\frac{4}{5}=₹80,000

Goodwill payable by Vishesh = 1,00,000\times\frac{1}{5}=₹20,000

On application – ₹ 3 (including premium ₹ 1)
On allotment – ₹ 7 (including premium ₹ 5)
On first and final call – Balance amount

Applications were received for 2,50,000 shares. Applicants for 10,000 shares were sent letters of regret and application money returned to them. Shares were allotted to the remaining applicants on a pro-rata basis. Money overpaid on application was adjusted towards the sums due on allotment. The company received all the money due on allotment except from Agam,who was allotted 1,000 shares. Her shares were forfeited immediately after allotment. Afterwards, the first and final call was made. Seema, the holder of 2,000 shares, did not pay the first and final call on her shares. Her shares were also forfeited. 50% of the forfeited shares, each of Agam and Seema, were reissued as fully paid-up @ ₹ 16 per share.

Pass the necessary journal entries to record the above transactions in the books of V.D. Ltd.

Answer:

Workings:

1. Calculating Agam's Calls-in-Arrear:

Agam from Category A failed to pay Allotment money:

No. of shares applied by him = x

No. of shares allotted to him = 1,000 shares

therefore, x =\frac{2,40,000\times1,000}{2,00,000}=1,200 shares

Advance paid by him at the time of application = 200\times3=₹600

Amount payable by him on allotment =1,000\times7=₹7,000

so, Calls-in-Arrears of Agam=7,000−600 = ₹6,400.

2. Calculating Seema's Calls-in-Arrear:

Calls-in-Arrears of Seema = 2,000\times6=₹12,000

Konark Ltd. invited applications for issuing 3,00,000 shares of ₹ 10 each. The amount per share was payable as follows : ₹ 3 on application, ₹ 3 on allotment, and ₹ 4 on first and final call. The company received applications for 4,00,000 shares. Allotment was done as follows :

(i) Applicants of 2,40,000 shares were allotted 2,00,000 shares.
(ii) Applicants of 1,20,000 shares were allotted 80,000 shares.
(iii) Remaining applicants were allotted 20,000 shares.

Money overpaid on applications was adjusted towards sums due on allotment. Divij, a shareholder, belonging to group (ii), who had applied for 6,000 shares, failed to pay allotment and call money. Faisal, another shareholder, who was allotted 10,000 shares, paid the call money along with allotment. Faisal belonged to group (i). Divij’s shares were forfeited after the first and final call. Half of the forfeited shares were reissued @ ₹ 10 per share fully paid.

Pass the necessary journal entries to record the above transactions in the books of the company.

Answer:

Workings:

1. Calculating Divij's Calls-in-Arrear:

Divij from Category (i) failed to pay Allotment money:

No. of shares applied by him = 6,000 shares

No. of shares allotted to him = x

therefore, x = \frac{6,000\times80,000}{1,20,000}=4,000

Advance paid by him at the time of application = 2,000\times3=₹6,000

The actual amount payable by him on allotment = 4,000\times3=₹12,000

so, Calls-in-Arrears of Divij = 12,000−6,000 = ₹ 6,000.

2. Calls-in-Advance paid by Faisal = 10,000\times4=₹40,000

22. Madhuri and Arsh were partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 3 : 1. Their Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2019, was as follows :

(vi) Creditors included a sum of ₹ 27,000 which was not likely to be claimed.

Prepare the Revaluation Account, Partners’ Capital Accounts, and the Balance Sheet of the reconstituted firm.

Answer:

Workings:

1. Calculation of Sacrificing Ratio:

Sacrificing ratio of Madhuri = \frac{3}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{16}

Sacrificing ratio of Arsh = \frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}

So, Sacrificing ratio of Madhuri and Arsh = 3 : 1

2. Calculation of Proportionate Capital of New Partner:

Adjusted Capital of Madhuri and Arsh = 3,60,000 + 1,98,000 = ₹5,58,000

Total Capital of the New firm = 5,58,000\times\frac{4}{3}=₹7,44,000

Proportionate Capital of Jyoti = 7,44,000\times\frac{1}{4}=₹1,86,000

Prepare the Revaluation Account, Partners’ Capital Accounts and the Balance Sheet of the reconstituted firm on Anita’s retirement.

Answer:

Workings:

1. Calculation of New Ratio and Gaining Ratio:

New Ratio of Gaurav and Sonu = 2 : 1

Gaining Ratio of Gaurav = \frac{2}{3}-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{15}

Gaining Ratio of Sonu = \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{15}

Gaining Ratio of Gaurav and Sonu = 2 : 1

2. Calculation of value of Debtors:

Debtors = 1,50,000 − 20,000 = ₹ 1,30,000

Creating Provision for Doubtful Debts:

Provision for Doubtful Debts = 1,30,000\times\frac{10}{100}=₹13,000

3. Calculation of Share of Goodwill of Anita:

Anita's Share of Goodwill = 3,00,000\times\frac{2}{5}=₹1,20,000

Goodwill to be paid by Gaurav = 1,20,000\times\frac{2}{3}=₹80,000

Goodwill to be paid by Sonu = 1,20,000\times\frac{1}{3}=₹40,000

Note:

(a) Bad Debts worth ₹ 10,000 is adjusted against the Provision for Doubtful Debts.

(b) Decrease in value of investment is adjusted against the Investment Fluctuation Fund.

30. From the following information obtained from the books of P. Ltd., calculate, (i) Return on Investment, and (ii) Debt Equity Ratio:

Information: Net Profit after interest and tax ₹ 6,00,000; 6% Debentures ₹ 10,00,000;

Capital employed ₹ 20,00,000, and Tax rate 40%.

Answer:

1. Return~on~Investment=\frac{Net~Profit~Before~Tax~and~Interest}{Capital~Employeed}\times100

Net Profit before Tax = \frac{6,00,000}{100-40}\times100=₹10,00,000

Tax Payable = 10,00,000\times\frac{40}{100}=₹4,00,000

Net Profit before Tax and interest = 6,00,000 + 4,00,000 + 60,000 = ₹10,60,000

Return on Investment = \frac{10,60,000}{20,00,000}\times100=53%

2. Debt-Equity Ratio = \frac{Debt}{Equity}

Equity = Capital Employed - Debt

= 20,00,000 - 10,00,000

Equity = ₹10,00,000

Debt-Equity Ratio = \frac{10,00,000}{10,00,000}=1:1

(i) Current Liabilities ₹ 1,50,000, Current Assets ₹ 2,80,000, Inventories ₹ 40,000, Advance Tax ₹ 30,000, and Prepaid Rent ₹ 10,000. Calculate Quick Ratio.

Answer:

Quick Ratio = \frac{LiquidAsset}{Cuurent Liabilities}

Liquid Asset = Current Assets − Inventory − Prepaid Expenses

Liquid Assets = 2,80,000 − 40,000 − 40,000 = ₹ 2,00,000

Quick Ratio = \frac{2,00,000}{1,50,000} = 4:3 or 1.33:1

(ii) Average Inventory ₹ 60,000, Revenue from Operations ₹ 6,00,000, the rate of Gross Loss on Sales is 10%. Calculate the Inventory Turnover Ratio.

Answer:

Inventory Turnover Ratio = \frac{Cost~of~Revenue~From~Operation}{Average~Inventory}

Cost of Revenue from Operation = Sales + Gross Loss

Cost of Revenue from Operation = 6,00,000+(6,00,000\times\frac{10}{100}) = 6,60,000

Inventory Turnover Ratio = \frac{6,60,000}{6,00,000}=11~times
