Amount Received from R on Application (to be transferred to Share Forfeiture


Account) = 300 × 3 = 900

As re-issue is at premium, there is no loss on Re-issue.

Capital Reserve = Share Forfeiture – Loss on Re-issue = 900 – 0 = 900

Net worth is more than 500 Crores i.e 950 Crores (Net worth = Total Assets – Total
Outside Liabilities = 1,250 – 300 = 950 Crores)

Hence, Company is liable to constitute CSR committee as per Net worth criteria.

Debtor Turnover Ratio = Credit Sales/Average Debtors


2.5 = 7,50,000/Average Debtors
Average Debtors = 7,50,000/2.5 = 3,00,000

CR = CA/CL
2.5=CA/CL
CA = 2.5 CL……(1)

WC= CA-CL
1,80,000=CA-CL…..(2)
Putting value of CA, we get
1,80,000 = 2.5CL – CL
1,80,000 = 1.5 CL
CL = 1,80,000/1.5 = 1,20,000

CA = 2.5 CL = 2.5 × 1,20,000 = 3,00,000

Acid Test Ratio = Liquid Assets/CL


Liquid Assets = Acid Test Ratio × CL
Liquid Assets = 1.2 × 1,20,000 = 1,44,000

ROCE = EBIT/Capital Employed
EBIT = PAT/(1 - Tax Rate) + Interest
EBIT = [2,40,000 / (1 – 0.4)] + (5,15,000 × 10% ) = 4,00,000 + 51,500 = 4,51,500

Capital Employed = Fixed Asset + WC = (11,20,000 – 1,80,000) + 3,50,000 =


12,90,000

ROCE = 4,51,500 / 12,90,000 × 100 = 35%

EPS = Earnings available for Equity shareholders ÷ Number of equity shares

Earnings Available for Equity = PAT – Pref. Dividend = 80,000 – (5,00,000 × 11%) =

EPS = 25,000 ÷ 4,000 = 6.25 per share

81.
BEP = Fixed Cost / Contribution per unit
BEP = Fixed Cost / (SP – VC)
25,000 = 1,75,000 / (SP – 10)
25,000 SP – 2,50,000 = 1,75,000
SP = (1,75,000 + 2,50,000)/25,000 = 17 per unit

82.
Contribution = Fixed Cost + profit = 1,00,000 + 80,000 = 1,80,000
PV Ratio = C/S × 100 = 1,80,000 /3,60,000 = 50%

Contribution for next half year = Fixed Expenses – Loss = 1,00,000 – 40,000 =
60,000
Estimated Sales for next half year = Contribution/PV Ratio = 60,000/50% =
1,20,000

83.
MOS = Profit / PV Ratio
Profit = MOS × PV Ratio
Profit = (40,00,000 × 30%) × 40%
Profit = 4,80,000
84.
Unit price beneficial = Marginal Cost + Profit made by alternative use of machine to
produce Product B (Opportunity Cost)

Product B:
Contribution per unit = SP – VC = 50 – 25 = 25 per unit
Contribution per Hour of Machine = Contribution per unit / Hours required = 25/5
hours = 5 per hour.

So, if We don’t produce Product D, we can produce Product B.


Opportunity Cost is 5 per hour of machine.

Unit Price of C = Marginal Cost + Opportunity Cost per unit


= 5 + (5 Per Hour × 2 hours required) = 5 + 10 = 15

So, if outside supplier is supplier at price less than 15 then only it will be beneficial
for AK ltd.

85.
PV Ratio = Change in Profit/Change in Sales = 5,500 – (3,500)/70,000 – 40,000 =
9,000 / 30,000 × 100 = 30%

For the month of May:


Fixed Cost = Contribution – Profit = (70,000 × 30%) – 5,500 = 21,000 – 5,500 =
15,500

BEP Sales in Rs. = Fixed Cost / PV Ratio = 15,500/30% = 51,667

86.
VC per unit = 72,000/4,000 = 18
Existing profit = Sales – Variable Cost – Fixed Cost = 1,00,000 – 72,000 – 16,000 =
12,000

Required Contribution = Existing Profit + Fixed Cost = 12,000 + 16,000 = 28,000

New Sales Units = 28,000/(22-18) = 7,000 Units

Additional Units = 7,000 – 4,000 = 3,000 Units

Please Note: Additional Units to be sold is asked.

Actual Capital = Total Assets – Liabilities = 24,00,000 – 10,00,000 = 14,00,000
Goodwill = Normal Capital – Actual Capital
Normal Capital = Goodwill + Actual Capital
Normal Capital = 11,00,000 + 14,00,000 = 25,00,000
Normal Capital = Actual Profit/ NRR
25,00,000 = 3,50,000/NRR

WORKING NOTES

13. Amount Credited to Share Allotment Account is the Amount not received on
Allotment.
Amount Not Received on Allotment = Allotment Due – Excess Application Money
Amount Not Received on Allotment = (160 × 2) – [(200 *1) – (160*1)]
Amount Not Received on Allotment = 320 – 40 = 280

14. Amount Received = Total Called up value after final Call – 2 Calls not received
= 10 – 2.5 – 2.5 = 5

Loss on Re-issue = 10 – 8 = 2

Amount to be transferred to Capital Reserve = Amount Received on Forfeiture –


Loss on Reissue
= (200 × 5) – (200 × 2)
= 1000 – 400
= 600

20. Amount transferred to Capital Reserve = Assets Taken over – Consideration


Paid
= (4,50,000 + 2,50,000) – 6,60,000
= 40,000

21. Loss on Issue of Debentures = Discount on Issue + Premium on Redemption


= (10,000 × 100 × 8%) + (10,000 × 100 × 5%)
= 80,000 + 50,000
= 1,30,000

23. Number of shares to be issued = Amount payable on Redemption ÷ Issue price


= (2,00,000 × 10) ÷ 12.5
= 1,60,000

Please Note:
 Face Value of 1 Debenture is not given in the Question
 Face Value of 1 Share to be issued for redemption is also not given

26. Q. 26 is wrong. It is based on old provision of law, which has been


amended. As per the old provisions, answer will be not exceed 26%.

33. 2,70,000 ÷ (100 + 25) × 25 = 54,000

37. Cash Flow from Financing Activities = - 1,20,000 – 80,000 = -2,00,000

Please Note:
 As per me, there should be a Negative Sign in the Options as the question asked
in Cash Flow not cash outflow.
 Provision for taxation & proposed dividend have no effect as they are not cash
flows.
38. Cash Flow = Inflow = Sale Amount
Sale Amount = WDV of Asset + Profit
= (Original Cost – Accumulated Depreciation) + Profit
= (13,55,000 – 7,28,000) + 1,59,000
= 7,86,000

39.
Investment Account
Particulars ` Lakhs Particulars ` Lakhs
To Balance b/d 34 Cost of Investments Sold 10.20
(34 × 30%)
To Bank A/c (Purchase of 16.7 By Balance c/d 40.50
Investments) (B.F)
50.70 50.70

Cash Inflow = Sale Value of Investments = 10.20 + 4.80 = 15 lakhs


Cash Outflow = Purchase Value of Investments = 16.7 Lakhs

40. Cash Flow from Operating Activities = 12,00,000 + 1,50,000 – 2,00,000 +


1,75,000 = 13,25,000

41. As per AS 2, Inventory is valued at lower of Cost or NRV.


Cost = 60 × 25% = 15 Lakhs
NRV = 16.50 – 10% = 14.85 Lakhs
Lower is 14.85 Lakhs

46. Cash Flow from Operating Activities = 15,00,000 – 7,00,000 = 8,00,000

Please Note: Depreciation is not added back in Direct Method of Operating


Activities.

59. Amount Received = 2 + 2 + 3 = 7


Loss on Re-issue = 0 (as reissue is above face value)

Amount to be transferred to Capital Reserve = Shares Reissued × (Amount Received


– Loss)
= 100 (7-0)
= 700

70.
72. Cash Received in 3rd Month:
From 1st Month = 96,000 × 12.5% = 12,000
From 2nd Month = 1,44,000 × 12.5% = 18,000
From 3rd Month = 1,44,000 × 75% = 1,08,000
Total=1,38,000

74. Gross Profit = 4,00,000 ÷ (100 + 25) × 25 = 80,000


Net Profit = GP – Indirect Expenses = 80,000 – 24,000 = 56,000
Net Profit Ratio = Net Profit ÷ Net Sales ×100 = 56,000 ÷ 4,00,000 ×100 = 14%

75. Current Ratio = CA/CL


Current Assets = 3 × CL = 3 × 20 = 60

Acid Test Ratio = CA – Stock / CL


1.8 = 60 – Stock / 20
Stock = 60 – (20×1.8) = 24

81. PV% = 100 – VC% = 100 – 50 = 50%


BEP = Fixed Cost/PV% = 1,20,000 / 50% = 2,40,000
BEP% = 2,40,000/(10,000×40)= 60%

MOS% = 100 – BEP = 100 – 60 = 40%

Please Note: There can be multiple ways of calculating MOS%. Student can follow
any approach.

83. MOS% = 100 – BEP% = 100 – 60 = 40%

Contribution = Profit / MOS% = 4,000/40% = 10,000

84. Profit = Contribution – Fixed Cost = (Sales × PV%) – Fixed Cost = (16,00,000 ×
30%) – 4,00,000
= 80,000

85. BEP% = 100 – MOS = 60%


BEP = Sales × 60% = 50 × 60% = 30 Lakhs

Net Profit = MOS × PV% = (50 × 40%) × 50% = 10 Lakhs


86. Profit 1 = 50,000 – 30,000 = 20,000
Profit 2 = 30,000 – 22,000 = 8,000

PV% = Change in Profit/Change in Sales × 100


PV% = (20,000 – 8,000)/ (50,000 – 30,000) ×100
PV% = 60%

89. Payout Ratio = DPS/EPS × 100 = 3/5 ×100=60%


Retention Ratio = 100 – Payout = 40%
G = br = 15% × 40% = 6%

Price = D1/Ke – g = 3/10% - 6% = 75

90. Goodwill = Super Profits / NRR = 2,40,000 / 12% = 20 Lakhs

97. Value = (8 × 3.791) + (120 × 0.621) = 104.85


If price is less than this value then it is a good buy. Among the options only one
option has price less than 104.85.

99. P = D1/Ke – g
80 = 4/Ke – 10%
80 Ke – 8 = 4
Ke = (4+8)/80=0.15
i.e 15%

100. Q. 100 is wrong. It is based on old provision of law, which has been
amended. As per the old provisions, answer will be 1 year.

My Explanations on Wrong Questions
WQ 43: As per me, Question should be “CARO 2016 is not applicable to Small
Companies, if” but Actual Question is asked on Applicability and you might be
knowing CARO 2016 is not applicable on Small Companies. Also all the options
have the wording “Less than or Equal to”.

WQ 53: Final Entry for recovered Collaterals is Debenture Dr to Debenture


Suspense which is not given in the options.

WQ 92:
Source Amt. Weight Cost W C

Equity 40,00,000 0.4 5% 6%

Preference Shares 10,00,000 0.1 11% 1.1%

Debt 50,00,000 0.5 6% [10% (1-0.4) 3%

1,00,00,000 10.1%

As per me, Answer should be 10.1% which is not given in the question.

WQ 88: Retention Ratio = (1 – Pay-out) = 1 – 0.3 = 0.7


g = b r = 0.7 10% = 7%

Question is wrong as

Required Rate should be 15%


If we take Required Rate as 15% then we can find the answer as under:

= 37.5
