(a) Receipts and Payments Account — Chennai Mahalakshmi Mahalir Mandram, year ended 31 Dec 2019 (TN HSC Class-12 Accountancy — NPO)
Rule: A Receipts and Payments account records ALL cash and bank receipts (debit) and payments (credit), of both revenue and capital nature, but excludes non-cash items. Here depreciation on furniture ₹900 is a non-cash item and is excluded.
| Dr. Receipts | ₹ | Cr. Payments | ₹ |
|---|---|---|---|
| To Balance b/d — Cash | 2,000 | By Fire insurance premium | 1,500 |
| To Balance b/d — Bank | 3,000 | By Stationery purchased | 6,000 |
| To Sale of old newspapers | 500 | By Audit fees | 2,000 |
| To Subscription received | 8,500 | By Sundry charges | 6,000 |

| To Sale of furniture | 4,000 | By Purchase of newspapers | 700 |
| By Conveyance paid | 1,000 | ||
| By Balance c/d — Cash (given) | 2,500 | ||
| Total | 23,000 | Total | 27,700 |
Honest note on data (flag): The receipts side totals ₹23,000 while the payments side (including the given closing cash of ₹2,500) totals ₹27,700 — a difference of ₹4,700. A Receipts and Payments account must balance by definition, so the printed figures are internally inconsistent (most likely a misprint in one of the three ₹6,000 payment figures). The items have been recorded exactly as given, with depreciation correctly excluded; the shortfall of ₹4,700 is highlighted rather than being forced to balance.
(b) Profit and Loss Appropriation Account — Velu and Seenu (4 : 1), year ended 31 Dec 2018 (Partnership Fundamentals)
Interest on capital: Velu 40,000 × 5% = ₹2,000; Seenu 20,000 × 5% = ₹1,000 (total ₹3,000).
Interest on drawings: Velu ₹400, Seenu ₹600 (total ₹1,000).
