Answer:

1,000 × 12 = 12,000
\(Average period =\frac{\text { Total period (months) }+1}{2}\)
\(=\frac{12+1}{2}\) = 6 : 5 months
Interest on drawings = 12,000 × 6/100 × 6.5/12 = Rs. 390.

Question 10.
Give your suggestions to the following arguments. “Under capitalisation method, the firm will have good will only if the value of net tangible assets are more than the capitalised value of profit.”
Answer:
Under capitalisation method
Value of goodwill = Total value of business – Net as-sets
Total value of business

Net assets = Assets – Liabilities The above equation proves that, a firm will have goodwill only if the value of net tangible assets are less than the capitalised value of profit.

Question 11.
Sanu and Manu are in partnership, who have not made any written agreement. Sanu has given a loan of Rs. 12,000/- to the firm in addition to his capital contribution. During the year the firm made a net loss of Rs. 40,000. Regarding the interest on loan, Manu is of the opinion that no interest be paid being the loan was not external one. Is Mr.Manu right in his stand? State your views.
Answer:
Normally partnership deed contains rules and regulations regarding the conduct of partnership business. In such cases partnership may not have a written agreement. In some other firms, partnership deed may be silent on some matter.

Then relevant discussion in the IPA 1932 becomes applicable. As per IPA 1932, interest on loan is payable at 6% p.a. on Partner’s loan. So Manu’s opinion that interest on loan is not payable, is wrong.

Question 12.
A business has been purchased by a firm for Rs. 1,00,000. But its net tangible assets were worth Rs. 92,000.

  1. What does this difference in value indicate?
  2. Where is it shown in the Balance sheet of the firm?

Answer:
Total value of business-Net Assets = Value of goodwill 1,00,000 – 92,000 = 8,000
So ‘Rs. 8000’ implies the value of goodwill of the firm. Goodwill refers to the value of reputation of a business. It is an intangible asset. So it is shown on the asset side of B/S.

In the absence of agreement, partners are entitled to interest on loan (to the firm) at the rate of 6% p.a. Sabu’s share of profit = 50,000 × 1/2 = 25000

Question 8.
From the following Balance Sheet of Aneesh and Jaya, calculate interest on capital @ 5% per annum, payable to Jaya for the year ending 31.12.05.
Balance Sheet as on 31.12.2005:

During the year, Jaya’s drawings were Rs. 3,000 and the firm made a profit of Rs. 4,000.
Answer:
Interest on capital is payable on the opening capital (ie. capital on 1.1.05)
Opening capital = Closing capital + drawings – Net Profit
Closing capital = Rs. 6000
Drawings = 3000
Net Profit during the year = 4000
P&L appropriation shown in B/S = 2000
∴ Net profit credited to partners capital = 4000 – 2000 = 2000
Net profit credited to Jaya = 2000 × 1/2 (ratio being 1:1) = 1000
Opening capital = 6000 + 3000 – 1000 = 8000
Interest on capital = 8000 × 5/100 = 400.

Question 9.
Aby and Anu are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 4:1. Their capital a/c balances are
Aby : 4,00,000
Anu : 5,00,000
Profit made during the year was Rs. 1,00,000.
Anu is of the opinion that their agreement must include a provision for interest on capital @10% p.a. Otherwise the profit sharing ratio must be made equal. Why did Anu put forward such an opinion? Will it be worthwhile to her if such changes are made. Which of the above condition is more advantageous to her. Give your advice.
Answer:
Profit sharing ratio of Aby and Anu is 4:1.
Net Profit = 1,00,000
As per this ratio Aby will get Rs. 80,000 (1,00,000 × 4/5) and Anu will get 20,000 (1,00,000 × 1/5) as their share of profit. But Anu has contributed Rs. 1,00,000 more than Aby’s capital. Now Anu is in a disadvantageous position.
Conditions:
1. If there is a provision for interest on capital @10%.
Anu’s interest on capital = 5,00,000 × \(\frac{10}{100}\) = 50,000
Her share of profit = (Net Profit – Interest on capital of Aby and Anu) × 1/5
=[1,00,000 – (40,000 + 50,000)] × \(\frac{1}{5}\)
= 1,00,000 – 90,000 × 1/5
=10,000 × \(\frac{1}{5}\) = 2,000
Anu will get interest on capital = 50,000+ share of profit 2000 = 52,000.

2. Profit sharing ratio made equal:
Abu’s share of profit = 1,00,000 × 1/2 = 50,000
Anu’s share of profit = 1,00,000 × 1/2 = 50,000
So First condition is more advantageous to Anu.
