1st PUC Accountancy Recording of Transactions I Six Marks Questions and Answers

Question 1.
State the three fundamental steps in the accounting process
Answer:
1st PUC Accountancy Question Bank Chapter 3 Recording of Transactions I - 3

Question 2.
Why is the evidence provided by source documents important to accounting?
Answer:
The evidence provided by the source document is important in the following manners:

  • It provides evidence that a transaction has actually occurred.
  • It provides important and relevant information about date, amount, parties involved and other details of a particular transaction.
  • It acts as a proof in the court of law.
  • It helps in verifying transactions during the auditing process.

Question 3.
Should a transaction be first recorded in a journal or ledger? Why?
Answer:
a. A transaction should be recorded first in a journal because journal provides complete details of a transaction in one entry. Further, a journal forms the basis for posting the transactions into their respective accounts into ledger. Transactions are recorded in journal in chronological order, i.e. (Date wise) in the order of occurrence with the help of source documents.

b. Journal is also known as ‘Book of original entry, because with the help of source document, transactions are originally recorded in books. The process of recording the transactions in journal and then in ledger is presented in the below given flow chart.

Question 4.
Are debits or credits listed first in journal entries? Are debits or credits indented?
Answer:
a. As per the rule of double entry system, there are two colums of ‘Amount’ in the journal format namely ‘Debit Amount’ and ‘Credit Amount’. The way of recording in a journal is quite different from normal recording. Journal entry is recorded in journal format in which the ‘Debit Amount’ column is listed before the ‘Credit Amount’ column.

b. Credits are indented. Indentation is leaving a space before writing any word. Journal entry has its own jargon. While journalizing, in the ‘Particulars’ column of journal format, debited account is written first and credited account is in the next line leaving some space, which is indentation.

Question 5.
Why some accounting systems are called double accounting systems?
Answer:
Some accounting systems are called double accounting systems because under this system there are two aspects of every transaction, i.e., every transaction has dual effect. Every transaction affects two accounts simultaneously, that is represented by debiting one account and crediting the other account. It is based on the fact that if there is receiver, there should be a giver.

Answer:
1st PUC Accountancy Question Bank Chapter 3 Recording of Transactions I - 4

Question 7.
Why are the rules of debit and credit same for both liability and capital?
Answer:
a. Every business acquires funds from internal as well as from external sources. According to the business entity concept, the amount borrowed from the external sources together with the internal sources like, capital invested by the proprietor, it termed as liability to the business. Business entity entity concept treats business and business owner separately.

b. Capital of the owner is treated as liability to the business because the business has to repay the amount of capital to the owner, in case of closure of the business. As liability incurred is credited, in the same way, fresh capital introduced and net profit increases the owner’s capital, and so, captial is credited.

c. On the other hand, if liability is paid, it reduces liability, and so, it is debited. Similarly, drawings from capital and net loss reduce the capital, and so, capital is debited. Thus the rules of debit and credit are same for both liability and capital.

Question 8.
What is the purpose of posting J.F numbers that are entered in the Journal at the time entries are posted to the accounts?
Answer:
J.F. number is the number that is entered in the ledger at the time of posting entries into their respective accounts. It helps in determining whether all transactions are properly posted in their accounts. It is recorded at the time of posting and not at the time of recording the transactions.

The purpose of entering J.F. number in the ledger is because of the below given benefits.

  • J.F. number helps in locating the entries of accounts in the journal book. In other words, J.F number helps to locate the position of the related journal entiy and subsidiary book in the journal book.
  • J.F. number in accounts ensures that recording in the books of original entry has been posted or not.

Question 9.
What entry (debit or credit) would you make to: (a) increase revenue (b) decrease in expense, (c) record drawings (d) record the fresh capital introduced by the owner.
Answer:

  • Increase in revenue Increase in revenue is credited as it increases the capital. Capital has credit balance and if capital increases, then it is credited.
  • Decrease in expense Decrease in expense is credited as all expenses have debit balance. If expense decreases, then it is credited.
  • Record drawings Capital has credit balance; if the capital increases, then it is credited. If capital decreases, then it is debited. Drawings are debited as they decrease the capital.
  • Record of fresh capital introduced by the owner – credit Capital has credit balance, if capital increases, then it is credited. The introduction of fresh capital increases the balance of capital, and so, it is credited.

Question 10.
If a transaction has the effect of decreasing an asset, is the decrease recorded as a debit or as a credit? If the transaction has the effect of decreasing a liability, is the decrease recorded as a debit or as a credit?
Answer:
1. If a transaction has a decreasing effect on an asset, then this decrease is recorded as credit. This is because, as all assets have debit balance and if assets decrease, then it is credited. For example, sale of furniture results in decrease in furniture (asset); so, the sale of furniture will be credited.

2. If a transaction has a decreasing effect on a liability, then this decrease is recorded as debit. This is because all liabilities have credit balance. If the liability increases, then it is credited and if the liability decreases, then it is debited. For example, payment to the . creditors results in a decrease in the creditors (liability); so, the creditors account will be debited.

Question 11.
Describe the events recorded in accounting systems and the importance of source documents in those systems?
Answer:
It is beyond human capabilities to memorise each financial transaction and that is why, source documents have their own importance in accounting system. They are considered as an evidence of transactions and can be presented in the court of law. Transactions supported by evidence can be verified. Source documents also ensure that transactions recorded in the books are free from personal biases.
A few events that are supported by source document are given below.

a. Sale of goods worth ₹ 20,000 on credit, supported by sales invoice/bill
b. Purchase of goods worth Rs 5,000 on credit, supported by purchase invoice/bill
c. Cash sales worth Rs 10,000, supported by cash memo
d. Cash purchase of goods worth Rs 400, supported by cash memo
e. Goods worth Rs 1000 returned by customer, supported by credit note
f. Return of goods purchased on credit worth Rs 2000, supported by debit note
g. Payment worth Rs 1,200 through bank, supported by cheques.
h. Deposits into bank worth Rs 500, supported by pay-in slips

Out of the above events, only those events that can be expressed in monetary tenns, are recorded in the books of accounts. However, the non-monetary events are not recorded in accounts; for example, promotion of manager cannot be recorded but increment in salary can be recorded at the time when salary is paid or due.

Source document in accounting is important because of the below given reasons.

a. It provides evidence that transaction has actually occurred.
b. It provides information about the date, amount and parties involved and other details of a particular transactions.
c. It acts as evidence in the count of law.
d. It helps in verifying the transaction during the auditing process.

Question 12.
Describe how debits and credits are used to analyses transactions.
Answer:
Debit originated from the Italian word debito, which in turn is derived from the Latin word debeo, which means ‘owed to proprietor’ and credit comes from the Italian word credito, which is derived from the Latin word credo, which means belief, i.e., ‘owed by proprietor’. According to the dual aspect concept, all the business transactions that are recorded in the books of accounts have two aspects- debit and credit.

The dual aspect can be better understood by the help of an example; bought goods worth ₹ 500 on cash. This transaction affects two accounts with the same amount simultaneously. As goods are brought in exchange of cash, so the cash balances in the business reduce by Rs 500, i.e. why the cash account is credited. Simultaneously, the amount of goods increases . by Rs 500, so purchases account will be debited. Debit and credit depend on the nature of accounts involved; such as assets, expenses, income, liabilities and capital. There are five types of Accounts.

Two fundamental rules are followed to record the changes in these accounts:

For recording changes in Assets/Expenses (Losses)
a. “Increase in asset is debited, and decrease in asset is credited.”
b. “Increase in expenses/losses is debited, and decrease in expenses/ losses is credited.”

For recording changes in Liabilities and Capital/ Revenues (Gains):
a. “Increase in liabilities is credited and decrease in liabilities is debited ”
b. “Increase in capital is credited and decrease in capital is debited.”
c. “Increase in revenue / gain is credited and decrease in revenue/gain is debited.”

Question 13.
Describe how accounts are used to record information about the effects of transactions?
Answer.
Every transaction is recorded in the original book of entry (journal) in order of their occurrence; however, if we want to know that how much we receive from our debtors or how much to pay to the creditors, it is not possible to determine at a single movement. Hence, we prepare accounts to know the position of business activities in the meantime. There are some steps to record transactions in accounts:

Step 1: Locate the account in ledger,
Step 2: Enter the date of transaction in the date column of the debit side of Account.
Step 3: In the ‘Particulars’ column of the debit side of Account, the name of corresponding account is to be written
Step 4: Enter the page number of the ledger in the Journal Folio (J.F.) column of Account.
Step 5: Enter the amount in the ‘Amount’ column.
Step 6: Same steps are to be followed to post entries in the credit side of Account.
Step 7: After entering all the transactions for a particular period, balance the account by totaling both sides and write the difference in shorter side, as ‘Balance c/d’.
Step 8: Total of account is to be written on either side.

Question 14.
What is a journal? Give a specimen of journal showing at least five entries.
Answer:
Journal is derived from the French word Jour, means daily records. In this book, transactions are recorded in order of their occurrence, i.e., in chronological order from the source document. It is also termed as the book of original entry and each transaction is termed as journal entry.

Question 17.
Accounting equation remains intact under all circumstances. Justify the statement with the help of an example.
Answer:
According to the dual-aspect concept, every transaction simultaneously, has two effects of equal amount, i.e. debit and credit. However, in any case, the equality of total assets with the total claims of business (sum of capital and liabilities) is not disturbed. This equality is algebraically represented as:
1st PUC Accountancy Question Bank Chapter 3 Recording of Transactions I - 10
1st PUC Accountancy Question Bank Chapter 3 Recording of Transactions I - 10(i)

In any circumstance the above equation cannot be changed. For example,
Business started with cash ₹ 3,00,000

Cash A/c Dr.
To Capital A/c
Assets = Liabilities + Capital
Cash = Liabilities + Capital
(3,00,000) = NIL + 3,00,000

Assets decrease, as cash is invested into the business and capital increases. Thus the equality between LHS and RHS remains intact.

Goods purchased on credit ₹ 60,000

Purchases a/c Dr
To creditors a/c
Assets = Liabilities + Capital
Cash + Stock = Liabilities + Capital
3,00,000 + 60,000 = 60,000 + 3,00,000
3,60,000 = 3,60,000
Assets increase as well as liability increases, without disturbing the equality.

Goods purchased with cash 50,000

Assets = Liabilities + Capital
Cash + Stock = Liabilities + Capital
(3,00,000 – 50,000) + (60,000 + 50,000) = 60,000 + 3,00,000
3,60,000 = 3,60,000

As goods are purchased for cash, so cash balance reduces by Rs 50,000, but on the other hand, stock balance increases by ₹ 50,000. Thus the total balance of LHS remains equal to the total claims.
