could any1 help me with maybe june 06
question 2
thank you
-
wat u gotta do here is :
u knw the cash rec from issue of shares , i.e 10000 x 20 =200 000 ....
& the cash we pay for debentures is 156 000 & they say it includes interst of 6 months @ 8% per annum. We knw that the interest thing dosent come under financing part yea?
so wat wee need to do is take that interst out !
8 % for 1 year means its 4 % for 6 months (8 x 6/12)
so this 156000 includes a 4 % interst to find only the amount paid for debentures wat we do is :
156000 / 104 x 100 =150000 yea ?
soo we recieve 200000 & pay 150000
deff = 50000
got it ?

ah thanks a lot dude..i just wasnt calculating the interest rite
thanks agn

may june 09 (paper 3)
question 4 please
np , & u r welcome :D
Q 4)
ok here the company redeems 200 000 shares @ premium of 10%
& its partly financed by issue of 50000 shares @ 3.50
wat u need to knw here is CRR is created to protect the creditors i.e done by turning revenue reserve into capital reserve.
since 200 000 were redeemed ,this amount (amount of share capital shuld be replaced by CRR ) , but as u knw its already financed by issue of shares worth @ par 100,000 & then share premium increases by (1.5 x 50000 ) 75000 ,
so as u can see here the loss of 200000 was now replaced by capital of 100000 & capital reserve(share premium) of 75000. & wat we lack is another capital reserve of 25000 i.e CRR .To cover up the initial cost.
The CRR is created by converting a part of revenue reserve (such as retained profit , general reserve etc ) & of course the Premium on redumption is aloso charged to profits , but that part is not asked in the question .
ans is A >

Nov 2010 Paper 12
28. A manufacturer has 700 units of finished goods in stock on 1 March.
On 31 March the total number of units in stock is 770.
At present, stock is valued using the total costing method.
What would be the effect on the operating profit if the marginal costing method is used for stock
valuation?
A increase operating profit
B no change in operating profit
C no change in operating profit but a 10 % increase in gross profit
D reduce operating profit
Jun 2010 Paper 32
4. X and Y are equal partners. They agree to admit Z as an equal partner.
Z agrees to pay $33 000 for his share of the goodwill.
Goodwill is not to appear in the accounts.
The partnership offices are to be revalued at $60 000 more than their present book value.
What changes are needed in the partners’ capital accounts to record these events?
X Y Z
$ $ $
A + 16 500 + 16 500 ? 33 000
B + 30 000 + 30 000 + 33 000
C + 33 000 + 33 000 + 33 000
D + 46 500 + 46 500 nil
i already know the answers but don't know how to get them..so could i have some workings?
thanks a lot.. :)

when total cost is used closing stock is usually valued higher than when marginal costing is used, because marginal costing meathod tends to value stock without taking the indirect expences into consideration.
So if opening stock was 700 units & closing 770 ;
In Trading account :
we
ADD : opening stock (700 units)
ADD : Purchases (we dont know)
less : closing stock (770 units)
this would mean net of (700-770) 70 units of stock were unsold & so needs to be deducted from purchaases to arrive @ cost of goods sold.
When total costing is used a higher amount is deducted as net amount(i.e opening-closing stock) - meaning cost of sales would be very much lower > so profit is higher!
when marginal costing is used the net amount deducted would be much lower meaning the cost of sales is much higher & so profit is lower.
So u hav da ans , its Operating profit would reduce / be lower
When marginal costing is used a lesser amout is deducted as closing stock which means
question 4)
its like this :
Z is a new partner , when he enters the business he pays 33000 as his share of goodwill , in an equal partnership if ones pays 33000 as goodwill 4 his share , we can assume total goodwill is 99000(33000x 3 partners).
so Godwill a/c will be like this :
Dr. Cr.
capital 99000 x 33000
y 33000
z 33000
Capital a/c
Dr. Cr.
Cash z 33000(he agreed to pay for goodwill)
Godwill z 33000 Godwill x 49500
y 33000 y 49500
x 33000
Revaluation x 30,000
y 30,000
Balance c/d X 46500
y 46500
z (nothing)
Ans is D

2002 Question 24(may)
IT's like this They expect 12000 units to be sold with a decrease in finished goods of 1000 units , which would mean:
They would produce 11000 units & take the remaining 1000 from stocks.
To produce 11000 units they would require raw-materials = 11000 x 3 = 33000 kg
Then their Raw-material-stocks are expected to rise by = 2000 kg
For a production of 11000 units + 2000kg rise in rawmaterial stocks
They require purchases of =35000 kg
2007 Question 13(may)
Gearing is basically "burrowing/net-assets", the definition of gearing & formulas may vary slightly though , but if u take it as "burrowing/net assets"
IF assets decrease(depreciation) , net assets decrease so gearing rises..
2004 question 14(nov)
Return on capital employed = Return(profit) / (Equity + long term debts or debts > 1 year )
convertible loan stock is a just a loan which allows the lender to convert them to shares @ a given date/ dates
IF loan stock is issued , Gearing ratio increases As borrowings increases.
& Return on capital employed decreases As long term debt increases.

thank you, may i know the formula of return on capital employed? does it involve long term debt?
-
Its there in my prev post, yea it involves long term debt anyway heres da formula again...
"Return on capital employed = Return(profit) / (Equity + long term debts or debts > 1 year )"

must have missed it, sorry and Thanks Dasith

Net assets of Ess= 250 000.
Cash goes out, Net assets of Ess= 250 000 - 100 000 = 150 000.
Buys business of Tee, worth 100 000 (i.e. 80 000 net assets+ 20 000 goodwill), Net assets of Ess= 150 000 + 100 000 = 250 000.
8 )
1.5 m - net assets taken over.
Net assets taken over= 400k + 120k - 200k
Don't mind... but you need revision. The questions are direct. :-\

Thank you, after looking at it, i can solve no.8, i can't get 11,19. but thanks for your help. i manage to practice those pass year question, hope its enough, will do my best :)
edit: finally, solved the rest :D sorry for asking easy questions :)

NBV of each share= 50.
15 000 shares, NBV of all shares = 50*15k= 750k.
You'll notice only reserves total is given, share capital is missing. Therefore, share capital= 750k- 420k= 330k.
Nominal value of each share= 330k/15k = 22.
19)
Total value of WIP increase, 60% of 100 (i.e.60 units) instead of 50% of 100 (or 50 units).
Cost of production will decrease because now it's COP/(60+u) instead of COP/(50+u), where u is the number of completed units.
You got it now? :)

I think what you did wrong here was you added the working capital(the increase in working capital) to the operating profit, which is wrong , since increase in working capital is a cash outflow it should be deducted...
(yea i knw im pretty late on this post... thaught it might just help the rest who's reading..)

$000
Purchases, at cost = 450
Purchases, at selling price = 500 sold+ 50 in stock at SP = 550
So, for every $1 of SP, there is an element of 450/550 profit.
i.e. for $500 of SP, there is an element of (450/550)*500 profit.
So. G.P = 500 - (450/550)*500 profit.
