Working Notes:

(1) Calculation of Stock:

Stock is always valued at 90% of cost

(A) Opening Stock = Rs.15,300 – (90%)

=15,300× 10/90

= 1,700 – (10%)

= 15,300 + 1,700 = 17,000

Opening Stock = Rs.17,000

(b) Closing Stock – Rs.13,500 – (90%)

13,500 ×10/90

= 1,500

13,500 + 1,500 = 15,000

Closing Stock = Rs.15,000.

 (2) Calculation of Gross Profit Rate:

(Take the values of previous year i.e. Trading Account)

=

27,000/90,000 × 100

= 30%

Gross Profit Rate = 30%

(3) Statement of Claim:

Estimated stock on the date of fire = 36,000

Less: Stock saved = 9,000

Value of stock destroyed by fire = Rs.27,000

(4) Calculation of Average Clause:

(As there is policy value given so we have to calculate average clause)

Average Clause =

            Value of Policy                       × Value of stock destroyed by fire

Value of stock on the date of fire

 

31,500/ 36,000 × 27,000

= 23,625

Average Clause = Rs.23,625

 

 

Q6) A fire occurred on 15th December, 2011 in the premises of D Co. Ltd. From the following figures, calculate the amount of claim to be lodged with the insurance company for loss of stock:

                                                                                                                    Rs.

Stock at cost as on 1st April, 2010                                                           2,00,000

Stock at cost as on 1st April, 2012                                                          3,00,000

Purchase for the year ended 31st March, 2011                                       4,00,000

Purchase from 1st April, 2011 to 15th December, 2011                            8,80,000

Sales for the year ended 31st March, 2011                                               6,00,000

Sales from 1st April, 2011 to 15th December, 2011                                   10,50,000

During the accounting year 2011-2012, cost of purchase rose by 10% above the previous year’s levels while selling prices went up by 5%

The value of stock salvaged was Rs. 20,000
