Q1). What is the purpose of preparing Final Accounts?
A1). The final account is the account prepared by the Joint Stock Company at the end of the fiscal year. The purpose of creating a final account is to provide a clear picture of the financial situation of the organization to its management, owners or other users of such accounting information.
Final account preparation involves preparing a set of accounts and statements at the end of the fiscal year.
- Trading and profit and loss accounts
- Balance sheet
- Profit and loss appropriation account
- Purpose of Final Account preparation
The final account is prepared for the following purposes:
- To determine the profit and loss incurred by the company within a certain financial period
- To determine the financial status of the company
- To serve as a source of information to inform users of accounting information (owners, creditors, investors and other stakeholders) about the solvency of the company.
Trading account
The results of the purchase and sale of goods are known as the trading account. This sheet is provided to show the difference between the sales price and the cost price. It is prepared to show the trading results of the business i.e. The total profit or total loss maintained by the business. It records the direct costs of the business company.
J.R. According to Batlibboi
The trading account shows the results of buying and selling goods. When we prepare this account, the general establishment costs are not taken into account and only the trAaction of goods is included."
Profit and loss accounts
This account is prepared to check the net profit/loss and fiscal year expenses of the business during the fiscal year. It records the indirect expenses of the business company like rent, salary, and advertising expenses. Profit and loss a/C includes expenses and losses and gains and losses incurred in business other than the production of goods and services.
Balance sheet
The balance statement shows the financial status of the business at a specific date. The financial status of a business is discovered by aggregating its assets and liabilities on a specific date. The excess of assets over liabilities represents the capital sunk into the business and reflects the financial health of the enterprise.
Now it is known as a statement of the financial status of the company.
Q2). What all expenses come under the head of trading A/C?
A2). Trade and manufacturing operating companies deal with the sale and purchase of goods. Therefore, only the manufacturing and trading entities prepare the trading account. Service providers do not prepare for this.
Advantages of preparing a trading account format
- It is a very important statement from the point of view of the cost of goods. By preparing a trading account, an entity may take a decision to continue or discontinue a particular product, which helps to obtain maximum profit or reduce losses.
- With the help of a trading account, the sales tax authority can, in accordance with the sales tax declaration filed by the business,. It also helps the excise duty authorities to assess the excise duty of a business enterprise.
- The management, having in mind the market competition, determines the price of the product with the help of a trading account.
Items in trading account format
The trading account contains the following details:
- Details of raw materials, semi-finished goods and finished products, opening stock.
- Close inventory details of raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products.
- Total purchase of goods less purchase return.
- Total sales of goods less sales return.
- All direct costs associated with the purchase or sale or manufacture of goods.
Item of income (Cr.Side)
- Less sales return than total sales of goods
- Close the stock of the product.
- Expenditure item (Doctor) side
Item of expenditure (Dr.Side)
- Opening stock
- Total purchase of goods less purchase return
- All the direct cost like carriage interior & freight cost, rent, electricity and power cost, wages for godown or factory, packing cost, etc. for workers and supervisors.
Notes
- The trial count will not be displayed on the close. But, firstly, we need to show the amount of closing shares on the income side of the trading account, and secondly, on the balance sheet under current assets.
- We value closing inventory at either lower cost or market price.
- On the day of preparation of the trading account, we value the physically available closed shares.
- However, the trading account can also be prepared in horizontal form, but the content remains the same.

Q3). Draw the format of P/LA/C.
A3). All companies generally prepare profit and loss accounts/statements at the end of the year to gain visibility of income, revenue, expenses, and losses incurred in a certain range of periods. It is important to prepare a profit and loss statement because this information helps organizations make the right business decisions, such as where to cut costs, from where the business can generate more profit, and which parts of the business are suffering from losses.
- Profit and loss accounts / statements
- Types of profit and loss
- Gross profit/gross loss
- Profit / loss
Trading account is prepared to check gross profit/loss while profit and loss account is created to check profit and loss/net loss.
Profit and loss accounts are made to check the annual profit or loss of a business. This account only shows overhead. All items of income and expenses, whether cash or non-cash, are considered in this account.
Only revenue or expenses related to the current period are debited or credited to the profit and loss account. The profit and loss account starts with gross profit on the credit side and, if there is a total loss, appears on the debit side. Items not displayed in the profit and loss account format
Drawing: the drawing is not the company's expense. Therefore, we debit it to capital a/c, and not to profit and loss a/c.
Income tax: for a company, income tax is an expense, but for a sole proprietor, it is his personal expense. Therefore, we debit it to the capital A/C.
Discounts: as we know, discounts are of two types–trade discounts and cash discounts. We deduct the trade discount from the amount charged and therefore do not show it in the account books. On the other hand, if the customer pays the amount on a certain date, a cash discount will be possible. We view cash discounts in account books. Therefore, we debit it to the profit and loss account.
Bad debt: it is because of the customer and the amount he does not pay it. We debit this amount to profit and loss a/c in the event that preparations have already been made for a bet that is worse than it is initially written off from it. When bad loA are recovered, it is again. Now it is not credited to the account of the party, but recovered account should be credited to the bad debt and is written on the credit side of the profit and loss account

Q4). What is meant by Grouping and Marshalling of assets and liabilities? Explain the ways in which a balance sheet may be marshalled.
A4). The rationale behind preparing financial statements is to present a summarised version of all financial activities in such a manner that all users can interpret and understand the information easily, appropriately and also take decisions accordingly.
Grouping of assets and liabilities: Grouping meA showing similar assets and liabilities under a single head. For example, all assets that can be used for more than a year are clubbed together under the heading ‘fixed assets’, for example, building, furniture, machinery, etc.
Marshalling of asset and liabilities: When assets and liabilities are shown in a particular order of liquidity or permanence, they are said to be marshalled.
1. In order of liquidity: Liquidity meA convertibility into cash. Assets that can be converted into cash in least possible time, i.e., more liquid assets are recorded first, followed by the lesser liquid assets. In a balance sheet, cash in hand is recorded at first and goodwill at last. In the same way, liabilities that are to be paid first, i.e., high priority liabilities are recorded first, followed by the lower priority ones. In a balance sheet, current liabilities are recorded first and then the long term liabilities and capital at the last.

2. In order of permanence: It is just the reverse of the above method. In this, assets and liabilities are arranged in their reducing level of permanence. The assets with higher degree of permanence are recorded first, followed by the assets with lower degree of permanence. For example, goodwill, land and building have the highest degree of permanence and hence are recorded at the top, whereas, cash at bank and cash in hand are recorded at the bottom. In the same way, liabilities are shown according to their life in the business. Liabilities with higher level of permanence like, capital is recorded at the top and other liabilities with lower permanence are recorded at the bottom.

Q8). Calculate operating profit from the following:
| ₹ |
Net Profit 5,00,000
Dividend Received 6,000
Loss on sale of Furniture 12,000
Loss by Fire 50,000
Salaries 1,20,000
Interest on Loan from Bank 10,000
Rent Received 24,000
Donation 5,100
A8). Operating Profit = Net Profit − Non-Operating Income + Non-Operating ExpensesNon-Operating Income = Dividend Received + Rent Received
= 6,000 + 24,000 = 30,000Non-Operating Expenses = Loss on Sale of Furniture + Loss by Fire + Interest on Loan + Donation
= 12,000 + 50,000 + 10,000 + 5,100
= Rs 77,100
∴ Operating Profit = 5,00,000 − 30,000 + 77,100
= Rs 5,47,100 Operating Profit = Net Profit − Non-Operating Income + Non-Operating Expenses Non-Operating Income = Dividend Received + Rent Received
= 6,000 + 24,000
= 30,000 NonOperating Expenses = Loss on Sale of Furniture + Loss by Fire + Interest on Loan + Donation
= 12,000 +50,000 + 10,000 + 5,100
= Rs 77,100∴ Operating Profit = 5,00,000 − 30,000 + 77,100
= Rs 5,47,100
Note: Salary being an operating expense was already taken into account while determining net profit, thus, it will be ignored now.

Net profit = 14,000 – (3,500 + 1,000+1,200+1,800+1,700+600) = Rs 4,200
Manager’s commission = 4,200 x 5/105 = Rs 200

Working Notes:
Operating Profit = Net Profit − Non-Operating Income + Non-Operating Expenses = 3,30,000 − 0 + 20,000 = Rs 3,50,000 Operating Profit = Net Profit − Non-Operating Income + Non-Operating Expenses = 3,30,000 − 0 + 20,000 = Rs 3,50,000
Loss by Fire is a non-operating expense, thus, added to the net profit to arrive at operating profit.
