There are 400,000 shares (200,000/0.5)
Interim dividend paid during the year = 400,000 × 0.05 = $20,000
Proposed dividends are not accounted for until they are actually paid.
20 $158,000
$160,000 ‐ ($155,000 – $153,000) = $158,000

Error (i) impacts the receivables control account only.
Therefore the answer is $308,900 – $600 = $308,300.

Some customers would probably pay more quickly if settlement discount was available.
Discounts allowed are not relevant as they relate to early settlement of trade receivables.
Additional short‐term finance is likely to increase availability of cash and make it easier to
pay trade payables.

Annual depreciation = $15,000/5 = $3,000
Carrying amount of the car at disposal = $15,000 – (3 yrs × $3,000) = $6,000
Profit/(loss) = $5,000 – $6,000 = ($1,000)
24 $130,000
Cost of sales = $20,000 + $100,000 – $16,000 = $104,000
Revenue = ($104,000/100) × 125 = $130,000

Dividends paid are not an expense; they are paid from retained earnings and accounted for
