I think about the calculation of DRAWINGS we have been mistaken if we use the below formula the answer is something like 86000$ the formula is like [ Drawings = Net Assets at End – Net Assets at Start + Profit – Additional Capital Introduced ] what do you thing?
A: When we purchase a non-current asset like a car it is called capital expenditure. B: When we paid expenses like electricity it is called revenue expenditure. C: When we purchase some goods what is called?
Revenue is the amount receivable from the sales. Depending on the context, income can mean the same thing or it can mean the profit (although then it should strictly be called the net income).
We didn’t include “Loss” as the 4th reason/item in the Increase in Net Asset equation because “that is simply negative profit”. Then why did we include “Drawings” in the said equation? Aren’t drawings “negative capital introduced” too?
Hello John, thanks for the lectures. You say a capital expenditure is when we purchase a non-current asset. Is it also a capital expenditure when we purchase inventory (which is a current asset)?

4-th factor that affects Net Capital (besides profit, drawings and owners investment) is reserves on revaluation of NCA. Is my understanding correct?
ADNAN5055 says
what is the difference between revenue and income?
John Moffat says
Revenue is the amount receivable from the sales. Depending on the context, income can mean the same thing or it can mean the profit (although then it should strictly be called the net income).

Hello professor, a question if you don’t mind.
We didn’t include “Loss” as the 4th reason/item in the Increase in Net Asset equation because “that is simply negative profit”. Then why did we include “Drawings” in the said equation? Aren’t drawings “negative capital introduced” too?
John Moffat says
Drawings have to be shown separately in the Statement of Financial Position.
Ziggystardust says
That makes sense. Thank you for responding!

Is asset expenditure the same as capital expenditure?
John Moffat says
It is capital expenditure if they are buying non-current assets.

Hello John, thanks for the lectures. You say a capital expenditure is when we purchase a non-current asset. Is it also a capital expenditure when we purchase inventory (which is a current asset)?
John Moffat says
No – that is revenue expenditure (when we buy it, it is purchases. Inventory is what is left of the purchases at the end of the period).
