Mock Test Paper - Series I: April, 2024 Date of Paper: 29th April, 2024 Time of Paper: 2 P.M. to 5 P.M. FOUNDATION COURSE PAPER – 1: ACCOUNTING ANSWERS 1. (a) (i) False - Accounting Standards for non-corporate entities in India are issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).. (ii) True - Subsidy received from the government for working capital by a manufacturing concern is a revenue receipt because it has no effect on improvement of future capability of business in revenue generation. (iii) True - In the early periods of useful life of a fixed assets, repairs and maintenance expenses are relatively low because the asset is new. Whereas in later periods, as the asset become old, repairs and maintenance expenses increase continuously. Under written down value method, depreciation charged is high in the initial period and reduces continuously in the later periods. Thus, depreciation and repair and maintenance expenses become more or less uniform throughout the useful life of the asset. (iv) True - Discount at the time of retirement of a bill is a gain for the drawee and loss for the drawer. (v) False - Surviving partners may continue to carry on the business in case of partnership. (vi) False - Receipts and payments account is a classified summary of cash receipts and payments over a certain period together with cash and bank balances at the beginning and close of the period. (b) Limitations which must be kept in mind while evaluating the Financial Statements are as follows: • The factors which may be relevant in assessing the worth of the enterprise don’t find place in the accounts as they cannot be measured in terms of money. • Balance Sheet shows the position of the business on the day of its preparation and not on the future date while the users of the accounts are interested in knowing the position of the business in the near future and also in long run and not for the past date. • Accounting ignores changes in some money factors like inflation etc. • There are occasions when accounting principles conflict with each other. • Certain accounting estimates depend on the sheer personal judgement of the accountant. • Different accounting policies for the treatment of same item adds to the probability of manipulations.

Cost of asset including expenses for installation, commissioning, trial run etc.- Cost of a depreciable asset represents its money outlay or its equivalent in connection with its acquisition, installation and commissioning as well as for additions to or improvement thereof for the purpose of increase in efficiency. 2. Estimated useful life of the asset - Useful Life’ is either (i) the period over which a depreciable asset is expected to be used by the enterprise or (ii) the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the use of the asset by the enterprise. Determination of the useful life is a matter of estimation and is normally based on various factors including experience with similar type of assets. Several other factors like estimated working hours, production capacity, repairs and renewals, etc. are also taken into consideration on demanding situation. 3. Estimated scrap value (if any) is calculated at the end of useful life of the asset. If such value is considered as insignificant, it is normally regarded as nil. On the other hand, if the residual value is likely to be significant, it is estimated at the time of acquisition/installation, or at the time of subsequent revaluation of asset. Or (b) Bills of Exchange are usually drawn to facilitate trade transmission, that is, bills are meant to finance actual purchase and sale of goods. But the mechanism of bill can be utilised to raise finance also. When bills are used for such a purpose, they are known as accommodation bills. When the acceptor of a bill finds himself in financial straits to honour the bill on the due date, then he may request the drawer to cancel the original bill and draw on him a fresh bill for another period. And if the drawer agrees, a new bill in place of the original bill may be accepted by the drawee for another period. This is called the renewal of bill.
