During the year ended 31 March 2011 Molten-Metal plc paid loan stock interest of £22,500. Loan stock interest of £3,700 was accrued at 31 March 2011, with the corresponding accrual at 1 April 2010 being £4,200. The loan is used for trading purposes .
The answer for this is 22500 + 3700 – 4200 = 22000 .
Could you please explain why 4200 is being deducted here.. thanks
May 31, 2016 at 6:34 am #318255I think it’s because the loan is for trading process, then the interest paid accrued at1April 2010 should be deducted from trading profit instead of interest income…
May 31, 2016 at 6:36 am #318256About receivable.
Loan interest receivable £32800. Accrued @1April 2014 £10600, accrued @31March 2015 £11300. This two figures are ignored. Why’s?May 31, 2016 at 11:21 am #318365As per your question the basis of the deduction is interest PAYABLE and this is simply the calculation of the amount payable in respect of the accounting period – you should have learned the accruals concept in basic accounting!!
Paid + closing accrual – opening accrual (this would have been included last year but is a part of what was paid this year so must now be removed)June 1, 2016 at 9:14 pm #318739Sir, While calculating property business profit for corporation, if a property is let out furnished, then is wear and tear allowance deducted from property income?
June 3, 2016 at 8:13 am #319037Yes companies will also get the wear and tear allowance but remember that it is only on residential property
