Question & Answer

Q.1: Why is it necessary for accountants to assume that business entity will remain a going concern?

Ans : It is necessary for accountants to assume that business entity will remain a going concern because

It helps in recording fixed assets at their original cost and depreciation is charged on these assets without reference to their market value. For example: if a machinery is purchased which would last for next 5 years, the cost of this machinery will be spread over the next 5 years for calculating the net profit or loss of each year. The full cost machinery would not be treated as an expense in the year of its purchase itself.
It is also because of this concept that outside parties enter into long-term contracts with the enterprise, give loans and purchase the debentures and shares of enterprise.

Q.2: When should revenue be recognised? Are there exceptions to the general rule?

Ans : Revenue is recognised only when it is realised i.e., when a legal right to receive it arises. Thus credit sales are treated as revenue on the day sales are made and not when cash is received from the buyers. Similarly, rent for the month of March even if received in April month will be treated as revenue of the financial year ending 31st March. There are two exceptions to this rule:

In case of sales on installment basis, only the amount collected in installments is treated as revenue.
In case of long-term construction contracts, proportionate amount of revenue, based on part of the contracted completed by the end of the financial year is treated as realised.

Q.3: What is the basic accounting equation?

Ans : Assets = Liabilities + Capital

Q.4: The realisation concept determines when goods sent on credit to customers are to be included in the sales figure for the purpose of computing the profit or loss for the
accounting period. Which of the following tends to be used in practice to determine when to include a transaction in the sales figure for the period. When the goods have
been:
a. dispatched 
b. invoiced 
c. delivered
d. paid for
Give reasons for your answer.

Ans : According to the realisation concept, revenue is recognised when a legal right to receive it arises. Therefore, when the goods are invoiced, it is treated as the transfer of ownership of goods from the seller to the buyer and hence the revenue is recognised.
