      If we pay $500 for electricity we should debit the expense account.

      Here it has obviously gone to the wrong account – that would not stop the trial balance balancing except that instead of debiting they have credited.

      So……we need to debit telephone 500 to remove it from that account.
      We also need to debit electricity 500 to make things correct.
      In total it means we need to adjust by 1000.

    Hello Sir,
    for example 1, i have some difficulties for the adjustment C).
    If no sale was done, why not remove the whole sale value??? which means profit decreasing by 2400???
    why only 400???? :S … It says it was accounted as a firm sale, and the sale value is 2400???? So by removing it, we should decrease the profit by 2400?? :(

    Admin/ Sir Moffat,

    Where can I find the list of answers for the revision mock exams so that I may know how to solve the questions that I answered right/ wrong? Unlike F2 mock test, F3 does not show the answers after u enter the answers. Plz help!!! My exam is on Monday!

    Hi. I found question (d) in example 1, trickier than it actually was. My initial reaction was that it would have no effect on profit as it was a prepayment BUT, presumably prepayments just affect the Balance Sheet and NOT the Income Statement. Am I correct, even though I got the answer wrong initially? Kindest P.

      Prepayments affect the income statement as well. If part of the payment was for next year, then the expense for this year is lower than what was actually paid (and therefore the profit is higher).

      Also. Why are long term liabilities added to capital to calculate ROCE? Why wouldn’t they be subtracted to get net assets. Maybe it’s to to with the Assets = Liabilities + capital equation and/or Assets’ debits and credits are (sort of) reversed? Best P.

    @munico1. The sale has been made but, the customer has not yet confirm the sale and because we would like to match the profit to the exact year, we did have to remove the profit until it is being confirmed.
    That is what i think.

    Hi admin, in relation to example 1, entry c) in adjustment to profits, could you please explain why it is only the profit removed yet the sale in effect hasn’t been made. Shouldn’t the sale figure also be removed?
    Thanx

    in relation to entry c) could someone please explain why it is only the profit removed yet the sale in effect hasn’t been made and the sale figure should in my opinion be also removed.
    Thanx

      @markadi, The profit would not be adjusted because inventory would have been valued at the lower of cost and NRV. In this case, an adjustment would only be necessary, as in the example if inventory had been valued at the higher of cost and NRV.

    Is the difference between the error of commission and error of principle that, the error in commission is between similar nature accounts and the error in principle is between different nature accounts? admin?
