Hi John,
On the above question, we've been asked to forecast the P/L and balance sheet. As per the question, the short-term borrowing will be the balancing figure. However, I cannot get the balancing figure until I have the reserves for the year, and I cannot have the reserves amount until i have the profit for the year. And to arrive at the profit, I need to know the net interest payable for which i need to know the short-term loan amount(which is the balancing figure) to consider its interest.
I don't know if i am missing anything on the question, could you please help me on this?
Thank you.

anoopej is correct :-)
@anoopej thank you for the answer :)
Thanks John for confirming.
You are welcome :-)
Well i have d same problem. But i cant find anoopej comment.
I don't know what has happened to anoopej's comment :-)
Note (vi) says that interest is effective in the following year.
So the interest payable each year is based on the amount owing at the end of the previous year.
Ahhh!! Thanku for shedding lights on that point, John..?
You are welcome :-)
