Solution

To prepare the income statement for Nicolette for the year ended 31 March 2017, we need to calculate the following:

  1. Net Sales: Sales - Bad debts written off Net Sales = 126,500 - 5,000 = 121,500

  2. Cost of Goods Sold: Purchases + Carriage inwards - Stock at 31 March 2017 + Stock at 1 April 2016 Cost of Goods Sold = 99,850 + 4,000 - 12,500 + 5,000 = 96,350

  3. Gross Profit: Net Sales - Cost of Goods Sold Gross Profit = 121,500 - 96,350 = 25,150

  4. Operating Expenses: Wages and salaries + Rent - Wages and salaries accrued - Rent prepaid Operating Expenses = 8,900 + 7,500 - 700 - 300 = 15,400

  5. Net Profit before Interest and Depreciation: Gross Profit - Operating Expenses Net Profit before Interest and Depreciation = 25,150 - 15,400 = 9,750

  6. Interest Expense: Loan * Interest Rate Interest Expense = 30,000 * 10% = 3,000

  7. Depreciation Expense: Depreciation for premises + Depreciation for plant Depreciation Expense = 25,000 + 2,300 = 27,300

  8. Net Profit: Net Profit before Interest and Depreciation - Interest Expense - Depreciation Expense Net Profit = 9,750 - 3,000 - 27,300 = -20,550

Now, let's prepare the income statement:

Income Statement for the year ended 31 March 2017

Net Sales: 121,500 Cost of Goods Sold: 96,350 Gross Profit: 25,150 Operating Expenses: 15,400 Net Profit before Interest and Depreciation: 9,750 Interest Expense: 3,000 Depreciation Expense: 27,300 Net Profit: -20,550

To prepare the balance sheet as at 31 March 2017, we need to calculate the following:

  1. Current Assets: Receivables + Stock at 31 March 2017 + Bank balance Current Assets = 27,500 + 12,500 + 18,950 = 58,950

  2. Non-Current Assets: Premises at cost - Depreciation for premises + Plant at cost - Depreciation for plant Non-Current Assets = 100,000 - 25,000 + 18,000 - 2,300 = 90,700

  3. Total Assets: Current Assets + Non-Current Assets Total Assets = 58,950 + 90,700 = 149,650

  4. Current Liabilities: Payables Current Liabilities = 16,000

  5. Long-Term Liabilities: Loan Long-Term Liabilities = 30,000

  6. Total Liabilities: Current Liabilities + Long-Term Liabilities Total Liabilities = 16,000 + 30,000 = 46,000

  7. Capital: Capital at 1 April 2016 + Net Profit - Drawings Capital = 80,000 - 20,550 - 25,000 = 34,450

Now, let's prepare the balance sheet:

Balance Sheet as at 31 March 2017

Assets: Current Assets: 58,950 Non-Current Assets: 90,700 Total Assets: 149,650

Liabilities: Current Liabilities: 16,000 Long-Term Liabilities: 30,000 Total Liabilities: 46,000

Capital: 34,450

Total Liabilities and Capital: 149,650
