Homework Answers

Answer #1

A)

Sales 1108000
Less : Cost of Sales -511000
Gross Profit 597000
Less : Office and Administration -90000
Less : Selling and Distribution -72000
Add : Other income 3400
Net Profit before interest and tax 438400
Less : Interest expense -20000
Net Profit before tax 418400
Less : Tax expense -106000
Net Profit after tax 312400

Cost of sales = 500000+11000 depreciation

Sales = 90000/0.18 - 17000 discount

Office and Administration = 500000*18%=90000

Selling and distribution = 4/5 * 90000=72000

Other income = 3400 (gain on sale of investment)

B)

Dividends are paid out of retained earnings and hence reduce the retained earnings

Retained Earnings
Opening balance 81000
Add : Net profit for period 312400
Less : Dividend paid -8200
Closing balance 385200
