Working Notes:
(1) Calculation of B's share in Goodwill:
Average of past four years profits = (Rs.135 Lakh + Rs.145 Lakh + Rs.131 Lakh + Rs.165
Lakh)/4 = Rs. 144 Lakh
Value of Firm's Goodwill = Rs.144 Lakh × 3 = Rs.432 Lakh
B's Share in Goodwill = Rs.432 Lakh × 2/6 = Rs. 144 Lakh, which will be credited to B's
Capital A/c and Debited to A's Capital A/c & C's Capital A/c in the ratio of 3:1
(2) B's Share in profit from 01.04.18 to 1.8.18 =( Rs.165 × 4/12)× 2/6 = Rs.18.333 Lakh
(3) Interest on B's Loan from 01.04.18 to 1.8.18 = Rs.20 Lakh × 6% × 4/12 = Rs.40000
(4) Interest to B's Executor from 1.08.18 to 1.12.18 = Rs.356.066 Lakh – Rs.50 Lakh = Rs.
306.066 × 10% × 4/12 = Rs.10.2022 Lakh

7. (a) In a production process, normal waste is 5% of input. 5000 MT of input were put in

Page 15
 Suggested Answer_Syl16_Dec2018_Paper_5
cost per good unit
2. Cost of Good units = Total Cost/(Total Qty - Normal Loss Qty) = (5000 × Rs.1,900
)/(5000 - 250) = Rs. 2,000
3. Abnormal Loss Qty = Total Loss - Normal Loss = 300 MT - 5% of 5,000 MT = 50 MT
4. Cost of Abnormal Loss = 50MT × Rs.2,000 = Rs. 1,00,000
5. Treatment: As per AS 2, abnormal amounts of waste materials, labour and other
production costs are excluded from cost of inventories and such costs are
recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.. Hence, the Cost
of Abnormal Loss of Rs. 1,00,000 should be charged to Profit & Loss A/c.
6. Closing Inventory Qty = 5,000 MT - 250 MT - 50 MT = 4,700 MT
Cost of Closing Inventory =4,700 MT × Rs. 2,000 = Rs.94,00,000

(iv) Distinction between Fundamental accounting assumptions and Accounting

Answer: 8 (a)
In the case of dissolution of a partnership firm due to insolvency, Garner vs Murray rule is
applicable at the time of any partner becoming insolvent. It requires—
1. That the solvent partners should bear the loss arising due to insolvency of a partner in
their capital ratio after making adjustments for past accumulated reserves, profits or
losses, drawings, interest on drawings/capitals, remuneration to partners etc., to the
date of dissolution but before making adjustment for profit or loss on realization in case
of fluctuating capital. In case of fixed capital no such adjustments are required.
2. That the solvent partners should bring in cash equal to their respective shares of the
loss on realization.
Non-Applicability: This rule is not applicable when:
1. the solvent partner has a debit balance in the capital account.
2. only one partner is solvent.
3. all partners are insolvent.

Answer: 8 (b)
Business enterprises get insured against the loss of stock on the happening of certain
events such as fire, flood, theft, earthquake etc. Insurance being a contract of
indemnity, the claim for loss is restricted to the actual loss of assets. Sometimes an
enterprise also gets itself insured against consequential loss of profit due to decreased
turnover, increased expenses etc.
If loss of profits consequent to the event or mis-happening (Fire, flood, theft etc.) is also
insured, the policy is known as loss of profit or consequential loss policy.
The Loss of Profit Policy normally covers the following items:
(i) Loss of net profit
(ii) Standing charges.
(iii) Any increased cost of working e.g., renting of temporary premises.
