What do you mean by
Income and Expenditure Account? 3
Ans:
Income and Expenditure Account: Income and Expenditure Account is a
Nominal Account which is prepared at the end of the accounting period by a
Not-For-Profit Organisation to ascertain the surplus, i.e., excess of income
over expenditure, or the deficit, i.e., excess of expenditure over income for a

account.
11. Amar and Bahadur are
partners of a firm sharing profits in the ratio of 3:2. They admit Mery as a
new partner for ¼ th share in the future profits. The new profit sharing ratio
between Amar and Bahadur is agreed to be 2 : 1. Calculate their sacrificing
ratio. 3
Ans: Aman : Bahadur = 3:2 (Old Ratio)
Mery’s share = ¼ (out of total share)
Let the total share be 1
Mery’s share = 1x ¼ = ¼
Remaining share = 1 - ¼ = ¾
Now, Amar’s new share = ¾ x 2/3 = 2/4
Bahadur’s new share = ¾ x 1/3 = 1/4
Therefore, Amar: Bahadur:Mery = 2:1:1
(New ratio)
Again, Sacrifice ratio = Old Share –
New Share
Amar’s sacrifice = 3/5 – 2/4 =
(12-10)/20 = 2/20
Bahadur’s sacrifice = 2/5 – ¼ =
(8-5)/20 = 3/20
Therefore, Sacrifice ratio = 2/20:3/20
= 2:3
Or
Ranjana, Sadhana and
Kamona are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4: 3: 2. Ranjana retires
and Sadhana and Kamona agree to share future profits in the ratio of 5: 3.
Calculate the gaining ratio. 3
Ans: Ranjana:Sadhana:Kamona = 4:3:2 (Old
Ratio)
Sadhana:Kamona = 5:3 (New Ratio)
Gaining Ratio = New Share – Old Share
Now, Sadhana’s Gain = 5/8 – 3/9 =
(45-24)/72 = 21/72
Kamona’s Gain = 3/8 – 2/9 = (27-16)/72
= 11/72
Therefore, Gaining Ratio = 21:11

14. Mention any five
objectives of Ratio Analysis. 5
Ans: Answer: A Ratio is an arithmetical expression of relationship
between two related or interdependent items. If such ratios are calculated on
the basis of accounting information, then they are called accounting ratios.
Simply, accounting ratio is an expression of relationship between two
accounting terms or variables or two set of accounting heads or group of items
stated in financial statement. It is one of the techniques of financial
analysis which is used to evaluate the operating efficiency and financial
position of a business concern.
Objectives
of Ratio analysis
1. To know
the weak areas of the business which need more attention.
2. To know
about the potential areas which can be improved with the effort in the desired
direction?
3. To provide
a deeper analysis of the profitability, liquidity, solvency and efficiency
levels in the business.
4. To provide
information for decision making.
5. To provide
information for inter-firm and intra-firm comparison.
Or
Calculate current assets
of a company from the following information: 5
Stock turnover ratio = 4 times Stock at the end is Rs. 20,000/- more than
the stock at the beginning. Sales Rs. 3,00,000/- and gross profit ratio
is 20% of Sales. Current liabilities = 40,000/- Quick ratio = 0.75 |
Ans:
Given,
STR = 4
Times
Sales =
Rs. 3,00,000
G.P = 20%
of Sales
Now, Gross
Profit = 3,00,000*20% = 60,000
Again,
cost of goods sold = Sales – GP = 3,00,000 – 60,000 = 2,40,000
Now, STR =
Cost of goods sold / Average stock
=> 4 =
2,40,000/Average Stock
=>
Average Stock = 2,40,000/4 = 60,000
Current liabilities
Quick ratio
Again, Let the opening stock be x
(opening stock + Closing stock)/2 =
Average Stock
=> [x + (x + 20,000)]/2 = 60,000
=> 2x + 20,000 = 1,20,000
=> 2x = 1,00,000
=> x = 50,000
Therefore, opening stock = 50,000
And Closing stock = 50,000 + 20,000 =
70,000
Again,
Current liabilities = 40,000
Quick ratio = 0.75
Now, Quick ratio = (Liquid assets /
Current liabilities)
=> 0.75 = (Liquid assets / 40,000)
=> Liquid assets = 0.75*40,000 =
30,000
Therefore, Current assets = Liquid assets + Closing Stock = 30,000
+ 70,000 = 1,00,000

18. Explain the terms
‘Over-subscription’ and ‘Under-subscription’ of shares. 2 ½ + 2 ½=5
Ans: Over-subscription: When the number of shares applied is more than the number of
shares issued by a company, the issue of shares is said to be oversubscribed. The
company cannot allot shares more than those offered for subscription. In case
of over-subscription, there are three possibilities arise:
(a) Some applicants may not be allotted any
shares. This is known as ‘rejection of applications’.
(b) Some applicants may be allotted less
number of shares than they have applied for. This is known as partial or
pro-rata allotment.
(c) Some applicants may be allotted the full
number of shares they have applied for. This is known as full allotment.
Under
subscription: When the number
of shares applied is less than the number of shares issued by a company, the
issue of shares is said to be under subscribed. In this case accounting entries
are passed with the number of shares applied by the public.

4)

Capital.
1) Reissue
of forfeited shares: The directors of the company have the power
to re-issue the forfeited shares on such terms as it think fit. Thus the
forfeited shares can be reissued at par, or at premium or at discount. However,
if the forfeited shares are reissued at discount, the amount of discount should
not exceed the amount credited to the share forfeiture A/c. If the discount
allowed on reissue is less than the forfeited amount there will be the surplus
left in the share forfeited A/c. This surplus will be of the nature of capital profits
so it will be transferred to the Capital Reserve A/c.
2)
Calls in arrears: Calls-in-Arrears: The
amount which is not paid by shareholders when money is demanded by the company,
such amount is known as ‘Calls-in-Arrears’. The maximum rate of interest to be
provided on calls in arrear must not exceed 10% per annum.
3) Calls-in-Advance: Sometimes, it so happens that a shareholder may pay the entire
amount on his shares even though the whole amount has not been called up. The
amount received in advance of calls from such a shareholder should be credited
to "calls in advance". The maximum rate of interest allowed on calls
in advance is 12% per annum.
4) Reserve
Capital: A company may by special resolution determine that any portion of
its share capital which has not been already called up shall not be capable of
being called-up, except in the event of winding up of the company. Such type of
share capital is known as reserve-capital.

What is meant by a debenture? Explain
the different types of debentures. 2+6=8
Ans: Meaning of Debentures: According to Sec. 2 (30) of the companies Act, 2013,
debentures include “debenture stock, bonds and any other instruments of a
company evidencing a debt, whether constituting a charge on the assets of the
company or not.”
Debentures are
debt securities issued by a joint stock company. Amounts collected by way of
debentures form part of the loan capital of a company and are repayable after a
fixed period. Debenture holders get fixed rate of interest on their debentures
as a charge against profit. They are creditors of the company.
Types of
Debentures: Debentures are classified as follows:
1. On the
Basis of Repayment
a. Redeemable Debentures: These debentures are
paid off or redeemed after a fixed period of time.
b. Irredeemable or Perpetual Debentures: These
debentures are permanent debentures of a company. They are redeemed only in the
event of winding up of a company.
2. On the
Basis of Transferability
a. Registered Debentures: These debentures are
registered in the name of the owner in the company’s register of debentures.
b. Bearer Debentures: These debentures are not
registered in the name of the owner in the company’s register of debentures.
These debentures are transferable by mere delivery.
3. On the
Basis of Security
a. Secured debentures: These are the
debentures which are secured by either a fixed charge or floating charge.
b. Unsecured Debentures: These debentures are
not secured by any charge on the assets.
4. On the
basis of Conversion
a. Convertible Debentures: These debentures
are issued with an option to debenture holders to convert them into shares
after a fixed period.
b. Non Convertible Debentures: These are
debentures issued without conversion option.
5. On the
Basis of Priority
a. First debentures: The debentures which have
t be repaid first before other debentures are called first debentures.
b. Second debentures: The debentures which
will be repaid after the first debentures are called second debentures.
6. On the
Basis of Coupon Rate (interest rate)
a. Fixed Rate Debentures: Most of the time
debentures are issued with a pre-fixed rate of interest. These debentures are
called fixed interest debentures.
b. Floating rate Debentures: Floating rate as
the names suggests keeps changing.
c. Zero Coupon Bonds: These debentures do not
carry a specific rate of interest. These debentures are issued at a substantial
discount but redeemed at par.
