Machinery valued at 90% less than book value = carried at ₹80,000, so depreciation is ₹7,20,000. Half the bills receivable (₹75,000) are irrecoverable. Old provision ₹75,000 far exceeds the new 5% provision, so the excess is written back to P&L. Gross Profit ₹10,18,000, Net Profit ₹3,47,500, Balance Sheet ₹15,17,000 (carrying a ₹3,000 Suspense A/c for the trial balance's ₹3,000 printing shortfall).
Working notes
- Purchases and staff welfare (e): goods costing ₹1,00,000 used for staff welfare are deducted from purchases in the Trading Account and shown as Staff Welfare Expenses ₹1,00,000 in the Profit and Loss Account. Net purchases = 2,10,000 − 10,000 (returns) − 1,00,000 = ₹1,00,000.
- Depreciation on machinery (d): valued at 90% less than book value = 10% of ₹8,00,000 = ₹80,000; depreciation charged = 8,00,000 − 80,000 = ₹7,20,000.
- Bad debts and provision (c): Debtors 2,00,000 − 2,000 (further bad debts) = 1,98,000; new provision at 5% = ₹9,900. Old provision 75,000 − [bad debts 2,000 + further 2,000 + new provision 9,900 = 13,900] = ₹61,100 excess, credited (written back) to the P&L Account.
- Bills receivable (f): half of ₹1,50,000 = ₹75,000 is irrecoverable — a loss to the P&L; the remaining ₹75,000 is shown as an asset.
- Life Insurance Premium ₹15,000 is the proprietor's personal expense, so it is treated as Drawings (not a business expense).
- Suspense A/c ₹3,000: the trial balance as printed does not tie (see the note below); the ₹3,000 difference is carried as a Suspense Account on the asset side so the Balance Sheet agrees.
