Looks like u first saw the solution and then . . . .
September 10, 2010 at 8:36 am #67856No, i dun have the answers wid me.. I did the working on a rough paper..
Anyways, i tink I misinterpreted the qn 5.. my ans is C; not A..September 27, 2010 at 8:01 pm #67857In first question they are asking you How much should John record in the sales returns account at 31 May?
so the answer must be B
because another return was made after 31 may in 6 JuneSeptember 27, 2010 at 8:21 pm #67858Question 3 answer is A.
IF the year ended in 30 November then it begins in 1 December.
120 000/12= 10000
1 December- 1 January= 10 000
1 January-1 April=30000
then rent have grown to 144 000
so 144 000/12= 12000
1 April-1 July=36000
1 July -1 October =36000
1 October – 30 November= 24000
so 10000+ 30000 + 36000 +36000 + 24000 =136 000 $
and prepayment is 12 000 $ - AuthorPosts
