Question

Jim's Bank Account for the Year to 30 April 2008:

We will start by calculating the balance of the business bank account, using the transactions provided.

Opening Balance:

Jim initially deposited €150,000 into his business bank account on 1 May 2007.

Transactions:

  • Receipts:

    • Cash Sales (May 2007 to April 2008): €96,000
    • Credit Sales (Business customers): €19,600 (Note: This amount is not yet received as it is on credit, but it will be included in the Income Statement and not the bank balance at this stage.)
    • Bank receipts from credit customers (amount owed at 30 April 2008): €6,800

    Total Receipts:
    €96,000 (Cash Sales) + €6,800 (credit customer payments) = €102,800

  • Payments/Expenditures:

    • Lease Payment (Paid in advance for five years): €50,000
    • Shop Fitting: €10,000
    • Assistant’s Wages: €250 per month × 12 months = €3,000
    • Telephone expenses: €800
    • Heat & Light expenses: €1,000
    • Jim’s withdrawals for personal expenditure: €1,000 × 12 months = €12,000
    • Accounting Fee (after the year-end): €200
    • Amount owing to the electricity company for April (unpaid): €150 (not yet paid, so won’t be included in the bank calculation)

    Total Payments:
    €50,000 (Lease) + €10,000 (Shop Fitting) + €3,000 (Wages) + €800 (Telephone) + €1,000 (Heat & Light) + €12,000 (Personal Withdrawals) + €200 (Accounting fee) = €76,000

Bank Balance Calculation:

  • Opening Balance: €150,000
  • Add Receipts: €102,800
  • Subtract Payments: €76,000

Bank Balance at 30 April 2008:
€150,000 + €102,800 - €76,000 = €176,800

2. Jim’s Income Statement for the Year to 30 April 2008:

To prepare the Income Statement, we need to calculate Jim’s revenues and expenses.

Revenues:

  • Sales Revenue:
    • Cash Sales: €96,000
    • Credit Sales (on account): €19,600 Total Sales Revenue: €96,000 + €19,600 = €115,600

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS):

  • Purchases: €60,000 (Cost of goods purchased from manufacturers)
  • Less: Stock at 30 April 2008: €5,600
  • Add: Opening Stock (assumed to be zero at the start): €0

COGS:
€60,000 - €5,600 = €54,400

Gross Profit:

Gross Profit:
Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold = €115,600 - €54,400 = €61,200

Operating Expenses:

  • Wages (Assistant): €3,000
  • Telephone Expenses: €800
  • Heat & Light Expenses: €1,000
  • Accounting Fees: €200
  • Depreciation (Shop Fitting and Lease):
    • Depreciation of Shop Fitting: €10,000 ÷ 5 years = €2,000
    • Depreciation of Lease: €50,000 ÷ 5 years = €10,000 Total Depreciation: €2,000 (fitting) + €10,000 (lease) = €12,000

Total Operating Expenses:
€3,000 (Wages) + €800 (Telephone) + €1,000 (Heat & Light) + €200 (Accounting Fees) + €12,000 (Depreciation) = €17,000

Net Profit Before Tax:

Net Profit Before Tax:
Gross Profit - Operating Expenses = €61,200 - €17,000 = €44,200

Provision for Bad Debts:

There is a bad debt of €1,200 which Jim expects to be uncollectible from a business customer in liquidation. This amount needs to be deducted from the income.

Net Profit After Bad Debts:
€44,200 - €1,200 = €43,000
