ICB ASSIGNMENT 3 QUESTION PAPER –APR 2023 TO MAR 2024
You are required to complete the manual bookkeeping cycle of Thabo’s Spring-Cleaning Services as provided
to you under the ‘given information’ on a computerised bookkeeping package. Examples of software packages that
may be used include Palladium Accounting, Omni Accounting, ACCPAC, Microsoft Accounting, Brilliant
accounting, Impact, M.Y.O.B, Micro Ledger, Pastel, QuickBooks, Revelation Accounting, Simply Accounting,
Syspro, TurboCASH or Webaccounting (any other recognised software package may be used as well).
The following ‘screenshots’ from the software package you are using are required:
The cashbook of Thabo’s Spring-Cleaning Services (receipts and payments). Note: you can verify the
accuracy of your answers by referring to the manual cashbook payments and cashbook receipts given in this
document.
The trial balance of Thabo’s Spring-Cleaning Services as at 31 March 2020. Note: you can verify the
accuracy of your answers by referring to the manual trial balance given in this document. It is important that
you rename your accounts during set-up so that they reflect the account names in the manual trial balance
as far as possible. The system you are working on may limit you in certain instances. For example, it is
inevitable that on most programs, VAT Input and VAT Output will be merged into one VAT Control Account.
Sales and sales returns are also likely to be netted off against one another. It is imperative that you assign
external references with the ‘B’ & ‘N’ codes from the manual system. In particular, the assessor will do a
specific check to see if you have arrived at the following account balance:
Note: Due to differences in rounding between the manual and computerised systems, answers may vary
slightly (i.e., you may end up being a couple of cents out).
The following instructions are to be carried out BEFORE you insert any data to ensure that your *NAME
and ICB number appear on each printout:
1. Select SETUP
4. Enter your NAME and ICB number after the name of the undertaking and click on OK.

SCREENSHOTS REQUIRED
You are required to provide the following screenshots (where possible please place more than one screenshot
per page):
Due to the fact that all bookkeeping software packages work in their own unique way, the print-outs received from
candidates will differ. However, irrespective of which package is used, the account balances of the various ledger
accounts that are due to appear on the final trial balance will be the same in all instances. You will also not arrive
at the correct balances UNLESS you have applied the software package correctly.
Note: You may create your own fictional information for customers and suppliers where such information is not
provided. Such information might include telephone numbers and addresses to appear on invoices etc.
