    was that the markup ? How did you do that ?

    MT TB balanced but although that figure may be wrong, it doesn't effect the balance, so I shouldn't lose much on one calculation.

    I think I've failed on section 2 though.


    i cant remmeber the figures but

    COS = 100%
    SAles = 165%
    MArkup = 65%

    so did the COS divided by 100 X 165

    It took me al day to get in my head mark up and margin
    The calculation was 100/165x sales price(cant remember what it was)

    i put the two other things to go in current account share of profit and interest on capital

    difference between current and capital accounts
    capital mainly fixed unless partnership change or capital investment
    current always changing??

    is this right?????

    I stand by my waffle 100% - i even threw a bit of bum smooching in there by saying that if I didn't reconcile, I would be mis-representing the accounts by using an incorrect figure and would not be adhering to the 'reliabilty' concept.......God, I was way over the top - he he:laugh:

    How did everyone work out the rent figure? I debited the bank payment, and credited the accrual as the opening balance, then debited the prepayment and then debited the balance c/d as rent for year.

    My TB balanced tho!!?

    prepayments are a debit in the prepayment account, therefore a credit in the rent account - you still would have balanced as you did a Bal c/d figure of the difference

    should the accrual have been a dr or cr though? Was I right to put is as a cr?

    Yeah, the accrual was a credit - i initially had it as a debit but my TB was out by that amount, so did a quick 'T' account and realised the error of my ways!

    I put both the accrual and the prepayment as a debit as my trial balance didn't balance without doing this, so hopefully got it right???

    that sounds like what I did. Can't remember the figure, was it something like 9800 less the prepayment of 2000 and something like 780 or 560 accrual ? My TB balanced even though I got the closing balance calculation wrong.

    It section 2 that I think I've probably failed on as I couldn't get my TB to balance and so my P and L couldn't get a total either.

    I really shouldn't come on these forum things - what starts out as me feeling confident that i will pass, slowly gets squashed like a little itty bitty bug against the windscreen of a sportscar driving very fast.

    I am dramatic, I know..........
