2) Part A is compulsory for all.
3) Part B has two options – Financial Statements Analysis and Computerized Accounting.
4) Attempt only one option of Part B.
5) All parts of a question should be attempted at one place.

Q1. A, B and C are partners sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 5:3:2. C retired and his capital balance after adjustments regarding reserves, accumulated profits/ losses and gain/loss on revaluation was `2,50,000. C was paid `3,00,000 in full settlement. Afterwards D was admitted for 1/4th share. Calculate the amount of goodwill premium brought by D.

Sol: Goodwill share of C= `3,00,000-`2,50,000= `50,000
Firm’s Goodwill = 50,000x10/2= `2,50,000
D’s share in Goodwill= `2,50,000x1/4= `62,500

Q2. A and B were partners in a firm. They admitted C as a new partner for 20% share in the profits. After all adjustments regarding general reserve, goodwill, gain or loss on revaluation, the balances in capital accounts of A and B were `3,85,000 and `4,15,000 respectively. C brought proportionate capital so as to give him 20% share in the profits. Calculate the amount of capital to be brought by C.

Sol: Combined capital of A and B = `3,85,000+`4,15,000= `8,00,000
C’s share=1/5th of total capital
Remaining share= 1-1/5 =4/5
4/5= `8,00,000
C’s capital= `8,00,000x5/4x1/5= `2,00,000

Q3. A and B are partners. The net divisible profit as per Profit and Loss Appropriation A/c is `2,50,000. The total interest on partner’s drawing is `4,000. A’s salary is `4,000 per quarter and B’s salary is `40,000 per annum. Calculate the net profit/loss earned during this year.

Reading – 20 Marks

1 Read the following passage carefully:

1. Bubble wrap is a flexible transparent plastic material used for packing fragile items. It was invented by two engineers Al Fielding and Swiss inventor Marc Chavannes in Hawthorne, N.J. in 1957. However both of them were not trying to make a product to be used as packaging material. In fact they were trying to create textured wallpaper. They started out by sealing two shower curtains together in such a way that it would capture air bubbles which would make the textured appearance for their wallpaper. But this wallpaper idea didn’t sell too well.

2. Not to be deterred, they then set about finding another use for their product. The alternate use they came up with was to use it as greenhouse insulation. While bubble wrap by itself does create somewhat of an insulating effect, this idea didn’t become popular either.

3. It was three years after the initial creation of Bubble Wrap that Frederick W. Bowers, a marketer at Sealed Air, which makes Bubble Wrap, finally came up with the perfect use for their product. On October the 5, 1959, IBM announced their new 1401 variable word length computer. Bowers got the idea that Bubble Wrap could be used as a good packaging material to protect the computer while it was being shipped. He then pitched the idea to IBM and demonstrated Bubble Wrap’s protective abilities. His demonstration went over well and IBM began purchasing Bubble Wrap to protect their 1401 and other fragile products they sold and shipped.

4. One of the downsides to Bubble Wrap has always been the space it takes up during shipping and storage, for customers who are just buying the Bubble Wrap. In order to get around this problem, one of he dreams of the original inventors was that they’d someday be able to create a Bubble Wrap that customers could self inflate, as needed.

5. While originally being used primarily for packaging for electronics equipment, today the vast majority of Bubble Wrap made is used for food packaging. Because bubble wrap makes a satisfying popping sound when compressed and ruptured, it is often used as a source of amusement.

1.1Fill in the blanks:

(a) Bubble wrap was, at first, thought by the two engineers to be useful to____________.
(b) The engineers were trying to create textured wallpaper by ______________________.
(c) The alternate use of their product was____________________________________. 1x8 = 8
(d) IBM announced their new 1401 variable word length computer on __________________.
(e) IBM purchased Bubble Wrap to __________________.
(f) What was the original use of original use of Bubble Wrap ___________________________.
(g) The word which means the same as ‘exhibition’ is ________________________ ( para 3).
(h) The word which means the same as ‘cracking’ is __________________________ ( para 5).

2 Read the following passage carefully:

1. Listening is the ability to accurately receive and interpret messages in the communication process.One of the greatest gifts any of us can ever receive is the gift of listening. It is also one of the greatest gifts we can ever give. Unfortunately, it appears to be a lost art. We live in a world where everyone is talking but few are listening. What often passes for listening is simply one person pausing to collect their thoughts for their next soliloquy.

2. Hearing refers to the sounds that you hear, whereas listening requires more than that: it requires focus. Listening means paying attention not only to the story, but how it is told, the use of
language and voice, and how the other person uses his or her body. In other words, it means being aware of both verbal and non-verbal messages. Your ability to listen effectively depends on the
degree to which you perceive and understand these messages.
