(1) Working: (i) depreciation of machinery by reducing balance

= (80,000 – [20,000 – 8,000]) x 10% = 6,800

機器折舊錯誤撥備 $8,000, 其實應為 $6,800.

ie, over-provision = 8,000 – 6,800 = 1,200

Working: (ii) depreciation of fixtures by reducing balance

= (75,000 – [35,000 – 15,000]) x 20% = 11,000

傢俱折舊錯誤撥備 $15,000, 其實應為 $11,000.

ie, over-provision = 15,000 – 11,000 = 4,000

(2) Working: stock value 應為 250 units x $10.20 = $2,550

現錯記為250 units x $1.20 = $300

ie, undercast by: 2,550 – 300 = 2,250

(3)先利用debtors 計算 ”疑帳撥備”, 即: $4,150 x 8% = $332;

再利用 debtors 餘額計算 ”折扣撥備”, 即: {$4,150 –$332} x 2% = $76

(A) Some errors may cause the 2 sides of thetrial balance to disagree

(左右方不相等).

In that case, the final accounts (報表) cannot be prepared.

A suspense account is used to make the trial balance agree.

It is a temporary (暫記) account. When all the errors are corrected,

it is written off (撇清).

(1) 折舊多撥備 $500

Profit & loss – depreciation – machinery

(3) 貨物已賣出, 錯作存款處理, 因此存款是多記了, 要扣回。

500元是售價, 化成來價是 $500 ÷ 125% = $400

存款是以來價 cost 來記錄的, 因此要扣回 400元 (記多了的存貨金額)

Accounting (1988 – No. 4) <correction of errors>

At the end of the accounting years, a book-keeper discovered that the net

total of the balances extracted from the purchases ledger, which was

$87,345, did not agree with the balance shown by the purchases ledger

control account. The following errors were found, and after adjustments

had been made, the books balanced.

(1) An item of $683, being purchases from A. Wong had been posted from

the purchases day book to the credit of L. Wong’s account.

(2) Credit balances on the purchases ledger amounting to $329, and debit

balances amounting to $583 had been omitted from the list of balances.

(3) The purchase day book had been undercast by $217.

(4) Goods costing $1,386 had been returned to P.Tam and his account debited

for the goods returned to him, but no other entry had been made.

Required:

(a) Give the journal entries necessary to correct these errors.

(b) Calculate the balance of the purchases ledger control account:

<i> after the corrections, and <ii> before the corrections.

office furniture by the straight line method at 20% and 15%

respectively; full year’s depreciation will be charged at purchase.)

(b) Prepare a statement showing the revised net profit for the year.

Accounting (1986 – No. 3) <correction of errors>

(A) State the kinds of errors which do not affect the agreement of trial

balance totals.

(Double entry複式會計在入帳時, 若 Dr entry 與 Cr entry 不符, 會令試算

表的 Dr total 與 Cr total 也不相符, 改正時會涉及 suspense account,

但有些錯誤則剛好不影響試算表的平衡。)

(2) A sal of goods of $98 to Mr Fung had been posted to his account as

$89, the other posting being correct.

(3) Outstanding (尚欠) telephone expenses in the sum (數目) of $126, had
