Answer:
(d) ₹ 3,00,000
The correct option is not there, where it will be Rs. 342,000.
Explanation:

Particulars Vihan Mann
Calculation of opening capital:
Closing capital on 31st March 2021 4,00,000 4,65,000
Add: drawings during the year 65,000 65,000
Less: divisible profits (88,800) (59,200)
Capital including interest 3,76,200 4,70,8000
Less: interest on capital (34,200) 42,800
Opening capital 3,42,000 4,28,000

Working Notes:
Total dosing capital of Vihan and Mann (4,00,000 + 4,65,000) 8,65,000
Add: Total drawings (65,000 + 65000) 1,30,000
Less: Total profits (including interest on capital) 2,25,000
Total opening capital of Vihan and Mann 7,70,000
Thus, Interest on Capital (10%) 77,000
Divisible Profit (2,25,000 – 77,000) 1,48,000
Let’s suppose opening capital be x
Opening Capital Capital including interest – Interest on Capital
x = 376200 – \(\frac { 10 }{ 100x }\)
100x + 10x = 376200;
110x = 3,42,000

(b) 5%
(c) 25%

Answer:
(c)6%

Explanation: Debentures are issued at x% and redeemed at 10%
Loss on issue of debentures – Rs. 200,000;
where it is equivalent to 4% = \(\frac { 2,00,000 }{ 50,000 }\)= 4%
So, debentures were issued at 10% – 4% = 6% so, rest of the amount was debited from the premium on issue of debentures.

OR

(b) 5%
Explanation: Existing balance of Securities Premium before issuing of these debentures was ₹ 25,00,000
Less: Debentures to be redeemed at 20% so, Rs. 20 x 80,000 = Rs. 16,00,000
Remaining Amount in Securities Premium Account = 9,00,000
Less: After issuing these debentures the balance in securities Premium Account = 5,00,000
4,0, 000
So, 4,00,000/80,000 = 5%

(i) Calculation of gaining ratio and sacrificing ratio:
Doremon’s gain or sacrifice = \(\frac { 3 }{ 6 }\) – \(\frac { 2 }{ 6 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 }\) (sacrifice)
Shinchan’s gain or sacrifice = \(\frac { 2 }{ 6 }\) – \(\frac { 2 }{ 6 }\) = 0
Nobita’s gain or sacrifice = \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 }\) – \(\frac { 2 }{ 6 }\) = – \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 }\) (gain)

OR

Debt to Capital Employed ratio is 0.3 : 1. State whether the following transactions, will improve, decline or will have no change on the Debt to Capital Employed Ratio. Also give reasons for the same.

Sale of Equipments costing ₹ 10,00,000 for ₹ 9,00,000.
Purchased Goods on Credit for ₹ 1,00,000 for a credit of 15 months, assuming operating cycle is of 18 months.
Conversion of Debentures into Equity Shares of ₹ 2,00,000.
Tax Refund of ₹ 50,000 during the year. (4)
Answer:
Return on Investment = EBIT / Capital Employed x 100 = \(\frac { 15,0,000 }{ 1,20,0,000 }\) x 100 = 12.5%
Capital Employed = 12% Preference Share Capital + Equity Share Capital + Reserves and Surplus + 15% Debentures + 10% Bank Loan = 30,00,000 + 40,00,000 + 10,00,000 + 20,00,000 + 20,00,000 = ₹ 1,20,00,000 EBIT = Profits after Tax + Tax + Interest = 6,00,000 + 4,00,000 + 5,00,000 = ₹ 15,0,000
Net Assets Turnover ratio = Revenue from Operations/Capital Employed
= \(\frac { 3,60,0,000 }{ 1,20,0,000 }\) = 3 times

OR

  • Ratio will improve. Reason – Capital Employed will decrease and Debt will remain same
  • Ratio will remain same. Reason – Both Debt and Capital Employed will remain same.
  • Ratio will decline. Reason – Debt will decrease but Capital Employed will remain same.
  • Ratio will decline. Reason – Capital Employed will increase but Debt will remain same.

  • Proposed Dividend for the year ended March 31, 2021 was ₹ 1,60,000 and for the year ended March 31,2022 was ₹ 2,00,000.

You are required to:

  • Calculate Net Profit before tax and extraordinary items.
  • Calculate Operating profit before working capital changes.
  • Calculate Cash flow from Investing activities.
  • Calculate Cash flow from Financing activities.
  • Calculate closing cash and cash equivalents. (6)

Answer:
1. Net Profit before tax and extraordinary items = Net Profit for the year+ Interim Dividend + Loss of assets due to fire + Provision for Tax + Proposed Dividend – Insurance claim received for Loss due to Fire – Tax refund = 7,50,000 + 90,000 + 20,000 + 80,000 + 1,60,000 – 10,000 – 20,000 = ₹ 10,70,000

2. Operating profit before working capital changes= Net Profit before tax and extraordinary items + Adjustments for non-cash and non-operating expenses and goodwill amortised – Adjustments for non-cash and non-operating incomes = 10,70,000 + 40,000 + 70,000** – 30,000 = 11,50,000
** Goodwill amortised = Opening goodwill + Goodwill purchased – Closing goodwill

3. Cash flow from Investing Activities = Interest on Non-Current Investments + Insurance claim for loss of assets due to fire – Purchase of Investments – Purchase of Machinery – Goodwill purchased = 30,000 + 10,000 – 1,0, 000 – 1,60,000 – 20,000 = ₹ (2,40,000) Outflow

4. Cash flow from Financing Activities: Raise of Bank overdraft – Interim Dividend Paid – Final Dividend paid = 50,000 – 90,000 – 1,60,000 = ₹ (2,00,000) Outflow

5. Closing Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash in Hand + Investment in Marketable Securities = 2,00,000 + 1,50,000 = 3,50,000

Question 34.
Describe two basic methods of charging depreciation. Differentiate between both of them. (6)
Answer:
Two basic methods of charging depreciation are
Straight line method: This method calculates fixed amount of depreciation every year which is calculated keeping in view the useful life of assets and its salvage value at the end of its useful life.

Written down value method: This method uses current book value of the asset for computing the amount of depreciation for the next period. It is also known as declining balance method.

Differences:
1. Equal amount of depreciation is charged in straight line method. Amount of depreciation goes on decreasing every year in written down value method.

2. Depreciation is charged on original cost in straight line method. The amount is calculated on the book value every year.

3. In straight line method the value of asset can come to zero but in written down value method this can never be zero.

4. Generally rate of depreciation is low in case of straight line method but it is kept high in case of written down value method.

5. It is suitable for assets in which repair charges are less and the possibility of obsolescence is less. It is suitable for the assets which become obsolete due to changes in technology
