    Also question 5:
    At JUNE 30 2005 the capital reserves of smith were:

    Ordinary shares of $1 each. 100
    Share premium 80
    During the year. Ended June 30, 2006
    1 September 2005. A bonus issue of one ordinary share for every two
    held USING THE SHARE PREMIUM ACCOUNT.
    1 January 2006. A fully subscribed rights issue of two ordinary shares
    For every five held at that date at $1.50 per share.

    What would be the balance on each account be at 30 June 2006?

    My workings:

    # shares. Share capital. Share premium

    100. 100. 80
    50. ? ?
    60. 60. 30

    Thanks

    Sir:
    Question #2
    At 31 December 2004 a company’s capital structure was as follows:

    Ordinary share capital. 125,000
    500,000 shares of .25c each
    Share premium account. 100,000

    In the year ended 31 December 2005 the company made a rights issue of 1 share for every 2 held at $1 per share and this was taken up in full. Later in the year the company made. Bonus issue if 1 share for every 5 held, USING THE SHARE PREMIUM ACCOUNT FOR THE PURPOSE.

    What was the capital structure at December 31, 2005?

    My calculations:

    # shares. Share capital. Share premium
    500,000. 125,000. 100,000
    250,000. X .25. 62,500. 187,500. (250,000 @.75)

    Where do I go from here. And, given the answer, I must have done something wrong.

    Thanks

    Tutor:

    In statement of cash flows, example 1 – Blair Limited:

    You did two workings prior to proceeding to do the cash flow statement. One of which is “tax”.
    While I understand why you did workings for the non current asset, given the “relevant information”, I don’t understand why you did workings for tax when there were no additional information given. In other words, how would I know that I would have to address Tax before delving into the question?

    Please help me with Chapter 18 Test question 3
    The draft accounts of Anthea Co. For the year ended 31 December 20×9 include the following:

    Revenue $80,000
    Gross profit $20,000

    It was subsequently discovered that the revenue had been understated by $10,000 and closing inventory overstated by $5,000. After correction of these errors the gross profit percentage would be……

    (I know that the revenue would be $90,000)

    Thanks

    Help needed: chapter 16, test question 6
    The Payables Ledger Control Account has a number of errors that needs to be corrected.
    Why does the correction of “refunds received from suppliers” of $2,700 on the credit side of the payables control account? Doesn’t that mean the amount owing to the supplier is being increased – which is totally contrary to what the narrative says?

    I need help with the following problem found on page 34. Question 5:
    Details of a company’s insurance policy are shown below:
    Premium for year ended 31 March 2008 paid April 2007. $25,920
    Premium for year ending 31 March 2009 paid April 2008. $28,800 what figures should be included in the company’s financial statements for the year ended 30 JUNE 2008

    I see how the prepayment is arrived at but the Profit & Loss is unclear given the different months of March, April and June.
    Thanks
