Sorry sir, asking again and again as my paper is near.
What is the correct accounting treatment of finance costs accrued on a loan taken out by Michelle during the year?
A) Debit: Drawings, and Credit: Capital
B) Debit: Capital, and Credit: Profit or loss
C) Debit: Profit or loss, and Credit: Liabilities
D) Debit: Profit or loss, and Credit: CapitalAnswer is C but no idea how.
I assume that Michelle is the proprietor and that she has taken out the loan from a bank for the purposes of the business.
If no interest has been charged to the account no entries will will have been made in the accounts. It is then recognised that some interest needs to be accrued.
This requires that an expense is recognised. So Dr Interest expense (which ultimately will be a Dr to P&L)
The accrued interest is effectively owed to the bank – which becomes a creditor. Therefore, Cr Liabilities.

d. The purchase price of items which have been held for the longest period is an acceptable method for valuing inventory.Sir, my question is that in “d” it is telling about Lifo or Fifo. According to me, its Fifo, I can not understand how Lifo.
