Answers to chapter 13

Q1:
(i) Turnover = Sales - Sales Returns

$49 670 - $670


= $49 000 -
(ii) Cost of goods sold = Turnover - Gross profit
$49 000 - $9 000
= $40 000-
(ii) Amount of purchases for the year = opening stock
+ Purchases- closing stock

:- 2580 + x-1420= $40 000


1160 + x = $40 000
x = $40 000 1160
x = $38 840

(iv) Rate of stock turn- Cost of Sales


Average Stock

= $ 40 000
(2580 + 1420):- 2
= $40000
$ 2000
= 20 times

(v) Gross profit to Turnover = $9000 x 100


$49000 1
= 18%
Answer Q 2

(i) Turnover = Sales - Sales Returns

= 39 440 - 440
= 39 000
(ii) Cost of goods sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Customs Duty – purchases Returns
16310 + 12500 + 1400- 8690
= 21520

(iii) Gross profit = Turnover- Cost of sales


39 000 21520

Turn-up College “O” Level accounts questions and answers Page 149
= 17 480
(iv) Mark- up = Gross profit:- Cost of Sales
874
$17 480
$21 520
1076
81%
(v) Margin = Gross profit:- Turnover
$874
$17 480
$39 000
$1 950

= 44%

(vi) Rate of stock turn = Cost of sales:- Average Stock


= $21 520
(16 310 + 8690) :-2
= $21 520
$12 500
= 2 times
Answer 3
(i) Turnover for the year = Sales - Sales Returns
$269000 $16000
= $25300

(ii) Gross profit = 40 x 253 000


100 1
= $101200-

(iii) Cost of goods sold = Turnover – Gross Profit


$25300- 101200
= $151 800

(iv) Net profit = $25x 25300


$100 1
= $63250-

(v) Expenses of running the business= Goss Profit-


Net Profit

$101200- $63 250

= $37 950
(vi) Closing Stock = $151 800 = 10
x

Turn-up College “O” Level accounts questions and answers Page 150
= $151 800 = 10x
$15 180 = x

Opening stock + Closing stock: - 2= $15 180


(19500 + x):- 2= $15180
$19500 + x = $30360
x = $30360 – $19500= $10 860

Q4
125%= 338 400

:- 25% of 338 400


= $84 600
b) Net Profit = $84 600- $40 608 = $43 992

c) Mark- up =¼= 1 = 1
4 -1 3
d) Rate of stock turnover = $338 400- $84 600
= $253 800:- 22 560
= 11 ¼ times
e) Closing Stock = (22 560 x 2) – 28 660
= 45 120- 28 660
= $16 460

2a) Authorised Share capital

This is the maxiumum of share capital the company is allowed by the law to issue to the public.
It is stated in the memorandum of Association of the company. The company cannot issue shares
more than the Authorised Share capital.

Turn-up College “O” Level accounts questions and answers Page 166
b) Issued Share Capital

It is part of the Authorised share capital that had been issued and taken up by the public.
Although taken by the public it is not necessarily fully paid.

c) Called-up Share capital

It is part of issued capital. It represents shares issued and the money paid sometimes the
company does not require shares to be fully paid at once. It may set specific times at which
payment is required or when shareholders will be called- up to pay.

d) Preference shares
Those special shares preferred over ordinary shares because they carry a fixed rate of dividend.
In cases of insolvent, they will be given priority over ordinary shares for repayment. The
dividend may be cumulative that is if not paid in one year, it will accumulate into next year, or
non- cumulative

e) Debentures
These are loans to the company. They bear a fixed rate of interest which must be paid whether
the company the company is making profits or not. They are first in line of payment in cases of
liquidation. They do not participate in the running of the company.

f) Ordinary Shares
This is a risk share which caries no fixed rate of dividend. Its dividend is paid last after all other
payments have been made its advantage is that in a good year, the earnings are very high, but in
a poor year the holder can get nothing.
