Paper 2 · November 2015 · Bank Reconciliation
N. Chuma's net profit for the year was $369 000 before five errors were corrected. After correcting all five errors -- including removing a $35 000 van sale wrongly credited to Sales, and adding purchases of $45 000 from V. Vennon that had been completely omitted -- the corrected net profit was calculated. What was N. Chuma's corrected net profit?
Model answer
$407 300
Also accepted: 407300, 407 300
Explanation
$369 000 - $35 000 + $12 300 + $70 000 - $45 000 + $36 000 = $407 300.
