Why Goodwill in balance sheet should be transferred to dr of old partner in O/R

latest answer

When a new partner is admitted, goodwill of the business is valued afresh. For this, the goodwill that already appears in the books of accounts is written off and is transferred to the old partner's capitals accounts in their old profit sharing ratio. The old partner's capital accounts are debited with their share of goodwill.

Insurance claims

Can anyone say exactly What are unsured standing charges If in question there is trading and p&l account and from that how to identify insured standing charges and uninsured standing charges

latest answer

Below are broady standing charges that needs to be insured. Ones not insured, will be uninsured. Interest on Debentures, Mortgage Loans and Bank Overdrafts, Rent, Rates and Taxes (other than taxes which form part of net profit) Salaries of Permanent Staff and Wages to Skilled Employees, Boarding and Lodging of resident Directors and/or Manager, Directorsâ?? Fees, Unspecified Standing Charges [not exceeding 5% (five per cent) of the amount recoverable in respect of Specified Standing Charges]. Generally, in questions, you will have info about insured and uninsured. In few illustrations, they will give part information like - Out of the standing charges only such amount has been insured, and you will have P&L account given. Then you should first identify what expenses are standing in nature and then find uninsured. Example: In ICAI Illustration 11, they have given standing charges insured were 50k. From P&L, you find that administrative and finance charges are standing (as they are fixed in nature), there total is 1.8L, but since only 50k are are insured, 1.3L will be insured. Here, selling expenses will not be considered as standing as they are variable.

If the question contains (marked )then wt it indiactes? Does it mean that don't take transfers while calculating g.p% please explain??

latest answer

Nothing much, just that separate transfer figures help us in calculating stock reserve (Unrealised profit in stock of one department to whom transfers were made). In this paper, this is little tricky adjustment. It is similar to ICAI Illustration 7. But in ICAI illustration, shoes were being made out of leather supplied by finished leather department only. So, we would directly apply gp ratio to opening and closing stock. But here only some of ready made garment's requirement is met internally, rest is from usual market. So, you have to take an assumption how much of inter-department transfer material will be there in closing stock. I believe ratio of transfer to readymade department (5L) and purchases excl. transfer (1.5cr) by that department which comes out to be 3.33% can be taken as a fair assumption. So, for calculation of stock reserve, we will take stock value x 60% (as only 60% is dyed fabric) x 3.33% and then apply GP ratio on that. In ICAI illustration this 3.33% etc. was not relevant as entire material was received from other department so, basically we have 100% in that case. We should wait for ICAI suggested answers and understand how they have solved. Meanwhile, do look at above Illustration as mentioned. And practice similar question 4 in Practical Problems.

What is the treatment of Tax paid in final account??

latest answer

Tax like GST if collected from customer and liability is pending to be paid, it will be Current liabilities, else if excess balance with us, its either short term advance or net off from current liabilities. Income Tax is deduction from PBT then PAT moved to Reserves & Surplus.
