Yeah umm, basically the fixtures cost 27500 plus the 750 for delivery because the delivery cost is part of the capital expenditure. Therefore the 750 must be taken out of carriage in which will increase profit by 750.

And then remember the cost of the asset should be 28250 but only 27500 has been depreciated at 10 percent. So 10 percent of 28250 = 2825, which should have been entered into the expenses. But only (10 percent of 27500) 2750 has been entered therefore you must enter the difference of these two as an expense. Which is 75.

This means the overall effect on profit is an increase of 750 and then a decrease of 75, if you look below the mark scheme it will say accept 675.

Hope this helped

Anyone got any ideas of which questions might come up? I've noticed there is always a balance sheet or income statement in the past papers and usually about 2-3 essay questions at 6-8 marks each (i have seen a 16 mark essay question before too).

Hopefully a big income statement question comes up, along with a cash budget because they will take up the majority of the marks and are fairly easy

I'm predicting a Limited company Statement of Financial Position, don't think it's ever been featured in an exam paper, if not Limited Company Income statement and a question on gearing and what it means.

I doubt a cash budget will come up until the next academic year as it was featured in June 2012. Also, we might see a provision for depreciation account.

Differentiating between Bonus and Rights issues as 10 mark theory and possibly Limited company/sole trader evaluation.

I hope Computing in Accounts comes up for a writing question and a couple ratios, that will do just fine. The rest being Cash Budget and income statement along with a balance sheet. I really hope an Limited company statements don't come up, I find making the bal sheet hard.
