just some answers ceebs doing all.

1.1.3 Use of stock cards
- shows detailed transactions of stock to allow slow moving lines to be identified. Also identifies fast moving lines so managment can improve stock mix by re-ordering more of those stock.

1.2.3 the stock write down i got was 300

1.4.1 GP decreased due to less adequate markup, so either increase in CP while SP remained same or decrease in SP and CP constant.

1.4.2 R.O.A measures how effectively assets are used to generate profit. In 2010 it was 28% so for every $100 of NP, assets contributed $28.

1.4.2 R.O.A increase may be due to removal of innefective NCA's so business used assets more effectively to generate profit. Also Increase in asset turnover was greater than decrease in NP ratio

1.4.5 benchmarks- industry averages and budgeted results and expectations

1.5.1 Prepaid Rent Revenue
CR bank 9000
DR Rent revenue 6000
DR Balance 3000

1.5.2 revenue earned was 37200

1.5.4 Prepaid Rent revenue as a liability was 3600

oh and 1.5.5

Prepaid REnt revenue represents present obligation as it is not earned until the other business has used and consumed the rent. Its arising ffrom a past event as the obligation was created when the business paid x$ in prepaid rent revenue

The answer to 1.4.1 is actually due to increased volume of stock sold. It says the markup decreased yet sales increased. sell more units = more sales despite lower markup

umm and some answers from Q2.

2.1.1 estimated payments to cred 402000 or something
2.1.2 receipts from debtros i got 101 950

2.2.1 trends in liquidity. Just definied liquity then said trends show if its improved or deteroitatd. for example a positive trend is firm becomging more liquid so more equipt to meet short term debts.

2.2.2 cash flow measures liquidity as it shows how effective net cash from op. actv. are in meeting current liabilities and short term obligations as fall due.

2.2.4 negative trend in C.T.O as may lose faith of suppliers, impacting on relationship with creditors.

2.2.5 just briefly on the weakness of WCR.....if high amount invested in stock or debotrs can destort figure cos if high in stock and arent selling quickly enough, then may represent dead stock which would inflate WCR but have a negative effect on liquiditty.

2.3.2 Treatment of insurance i wasnt too sure just said itll reprensent an expense for the business and defined it kinda.

2.3.5 Dpn is not reliable as its based on estimates, this is shown as for example the vehicle was underdepreciated due to overstatement of resid value or useful life. IT's relevant as must recognise the cost of using asset to generate revenue over its useful life.

2.4.1 DR Accrued Interest REv 50 and CR interenst rev 50

2.4.2 rec was 100 (50 accrued and 50 revenue) although what did people put in the receipt no. column? i just wrote BS cos it said from bank statement but dunno if meant to leave it blankk?

in 2.3.2: The insurance cost, though it is a one off cost that helps get it into a condition and position for sale it can not be capatalised , that is become apart of the delivery vans cost price as it will not benefit the delivery van over its whole useful life, only for 1 year.

I just realised that in q1.5.1 i had balance instead of bank, would the examiners be even slightly inclined to pay the mark. All the other information was correct.
