Answer 1

Hey there !!

We will proceed this question by first preparing depreciation schedule as follows:

			1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
Assets	Method	Rate of Dep	2006 June	Depn 2006-07	WDV 2007	Dep 2007-08	WDV 2008	Dep 2007-08	WDV	Accumulated Dep= 2+4+6 Column
Land			1,00,000	-	1,00,000	-	1,00,000	-	1,00,000	-
Building	SLM	4%	3,00,000	12,000	2,88,000	12,000	2,76,000	12000	2,64,000	36,000
Furniture	On Cost	12.50%	80,000	10,000	70,000	10,000	60,000	10,000	50,000	30,000
Vehicles	WDV	20%	3,00,000	60,000	2,40,000	48,000	1,92,000	38,400	1,53,600	1,46,400
New Vehicle Purchased		20%	-	-	-	-	55000	2,750	52,250	2,750

Now that we have prepared the depreciation schedule, we can prepare our trial balance. Refer to the working notes as stated below, this will help you to know from where we have found a particular figure:

	Particulars	Opening Value	Closing Value	Notes
	Land and building at cost	4,00,000	4,00,000	Refer Working Note 1
	Accumulated depreciation on buildings at 01/07/20x7	12,000	36,000	Refer Working Note 1
	Furniture at cost	80,000	80,000	Refer Working Note 1
Opening	Accumulated depreciation as at 01/07/20x7	10,000	30,000	Refer Working Note 1
	Vehicles at cost	3,00,000	355000	Refer Working Note 1
	Accumulated depreciation as at 01/07/20x7	60,000	1,49,150	Refer Working Note 1
	Investments as at 01/07/20x7	34,000	42000	Given
	Bank	96,700	41,700	=96700 less 55000 on purchase of New Vehicle
	Trade and other receivables	20,000	20,000
	Ordinary share capital	2,75,000	775000	Refer Statement of Changes in Equity
	Preference share capital	2,80,000	280000	Refer Statement of Changes in Equity
	Retained earnings as at 01/07/20x7	7,000	67000	Refer Statement of Changes in Equity
	Replacement reserves	58,250	58,250	Refer Statement of Changes in Equity
	10% Bank loan	1,00,000	1,00,000
Payable	Trade Payables	6,000	6,000
Payable	Tax Payable	3,000	3,000
Payable	Dividend Payble	24,500	24,500
	Inventories		18000	FIFO, NRV whichever is lower
	Profit for the year		60,000

Now, have a look at the statement of changes in the equity, which has been asked in the question:

Statement of Changes in Equity	Number	Opening Balance	Additions during the Year	Closing Balance
Ordinary Shares issued	2,50,000	2,75,000	5,00,000	7,75,000
Preference Share	1,60,000	2,80,000	-	2,80,000
Profit during the Year			60,000	60,000
Retained Earnings		7,000	-	7,000
Replacement Reserves		58,250	-	58,250

AStatement of Changes in the equity shows the Movement in the Shareholder'sfunds during the Year. We have not made the adjustment of Dividend payable as the same has not been paid yet.

These workings will help you prepare the Financial sttments such as balance sheet.

Do let me know if you have any doubts in the question.

Happy studying :)
