10y ago#1I don't know what it is you are doing wrong (does the answer in your book not show the workings?).
Have you taken the drawings as being 12 x 960 (since there are 12 months in a year) plus, obviously, 840 ?
Yes sir I have taken them, but still I get them wrong
10y ago#3Drawings = 12360
Increase in NA's = 30,600 + 7,200 - 12,360 = 25,440
NA's at start of year = 64,800 - 25,440 = 39,360
Thank u sir
