Solution
1. Income & Expenditure Account
For the year ended 31 March 2018
| Expenditure | ₹ | Income | ₹ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | 25,000 | Subscriptions | 57,000 |
| Add: Outstanding Salary | 5,000 | Entrance Fees – Revenue portion | 3,000 |
| Less: Opening Outstanding Salary | (7,000) | Sale of Old Newspapers | 3,000 |
| Salary Expense | 23,000 | Sports Fees | 9,500 |
| Postage | 400 | ||
| Electricity Charges | 1,600 | ||
| Upkeep of Grounds | 6,500 | ||
| Depreciation on Sports Materials | 8,400 | ||
| Surplus | 32,600 | ||
| Total | 72,500 | Total | 72,500 |
Explanation of Adjustments
1. Subscription
Subscription received during the year = ₹52,000
Add: Outstanding subscription for current year = ₹1,000
Add: Subscription received in advance in previous year = ₹4,000
Therefore:
Subscription Income = ₹52,000 + ₹1,000 + ₹4,000 = ₹57,000
2. Salary
Salary paid during the year = ₹25,000
Add: Outstanding salary at the end = ₹5,000
Less: Outstanding salary at the beginning = ₹7,000
Therefore:
Salary Expense = ₹25,000 + ₹5,000 − ₹7,000 = ₹23,000
3. Entrance Fees
Total Entrance Fees received = ₹6,000
50% is to be capitalised:
Capital portion = ₹3,000
Remaining 50% is treated as revenue income:
Revenue portion = ₹3,000
4. Depreciation on Sports Materials
Opening Sports Materials = ₹35,000
Depreciation @ 20%:
₹35,000 × 20% = ₹7,000
Sports Materials purchased on 1 October 2017 = ₹18,000
Since these were purchased during the year, depreciation is charged for 6 months:
₹18,000 × 20% × 6/12 = ₹1,800
Therefore:
Total Depreciation = ₹7,000 + ₹1,800 = ₹8,800
Important correction
The published solution material appears to use ₹1,400 on the additional sports materials, but that does not follow the stated 20% p.a. rate for six months. We should therefore use ₹1,800.
This changes the surplus from ₹32,600 to:
₹72,500 − ₹40,300 = ₹32,200
So the correct surplus based strictly on the stated adjustment is ₹32,200.

🎯 Exam Tip
जब भी Receipt & Payment Account से Income & Expenditure Account बनाना हो, केवल cash received/paid को सीधे income/expense न मानें।
हमेशा देखें:
Opening Outstanding → Current Outstanding → Advance → Current Year Income/Expense
यही adjustments का मुख्य हिस्सा है।
