Yes,the underadding of sales and purchases was an example of a compensating error.
as for the provision question,there was an increase in provision of 300(credit side) and a 300 debit balance on the profit and loss account.

thAT profit had increases as

closing capital=opening capital+net profit+additional capital-drawings.

it does not have anything to do with long term loan.

0kay then i was right. But i made a really bad silly mistake! In the calculation of accumulated fund, i subtracted the loan to a member rather than adding it! :'(

oh in that one you had to get the CGS and add the closing stock to it.i think it was 47200.the capital question was the one in which they asked the reason for a traders increase in capital in his 2nd year of trading;the answer to which was a net profit.

do anybody know how accounts percentage is calculated?????
Which accounting percentage are ya talking about? There are two types of accounting ratios actually. Liquidity and performance (profitability) as well as other ratios are included in the syllabus.
You only need to know
* return on capital employed : net profit/capital x 100
*rate of stock turnover : cost of sales / average stock
*current ratio: current assets/current liabilities
* quick ratio : current assets - stock / current liabilities
* markup: grossprofit/cost of sales x 100
*margin:: grossprofit / sales x 100

Hope this helps!
