  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    According to which of the following principles all costs which are applicable to revenue of the period should be charged against that revenue?
    Solution

    The process of ascertaining the amount of profit earned or the loss incurred during a particular period involves deduction of related expenses from the revenue earned during that period. 

    The matching concept emphasises exactly on this aspect. It states that expenses incurred in an accounting period should be matched with revenues during that period.

    It follows from this that the revenue and expenses incurred to earn these revenues must belong to the same accounting period.

    Mohan purchased goods for Rs. $$15,00,000$$ and sold $$4/5^{th}$$ of the goods amounting Rs. $$18,00,000$$ and paid expenses amounting Rs. $$2,70,000$$ during the year, $$2005$$. He paid Rs. $$5000$$ for an electricity bill of Dec. $$2004$$ and advance salaries amounting Rs. $$15,000$$ was paid for the month of Jan. $$2006$$. He counted net profit as Rs. $$3,50,000$$.
    The profit calculated by him is correct according to ___________.
    Solution
    As per Matching Concept, While calculating the net profit, expenses of the particular duration should be deducted from the respective revenue. 
    Here, the revenue = 18,00,000
    and Purchase for the year = 15,00,000 x 4 / 5 = 12,00, 000
    Expenses for the year = 270000 - 15000 (adv. salaries) - 5000 (electricity) = 250000
    Therefore, Net Profit = 18,00,000 - 12,00,000 - 250000
                                        = 3,50,000
