Q1 :State the meaning of incomplete records?
Answer : Accounts that are not recorded as per the double entry system are known as incomplete records. According to Kohler (Dictionary for Accountants), single entry system is defined as, ” A system of book-keeping in which as a rule, only records of cash and of personal accounts are maintained; it is always incomplete double entry, varying with circumstances.”
Many small-sized business firms maintain incomplete records of their business transactions. They do not maintain proper books of accounts and mainly prepare books like, Cash Book, personal accounts (of debtors and creditors) and Balance Sheet at the end of the year. They maintain books as per their needs. This system is also known as defective double entry system. The preparation of financial statements is neither as easier nor as effective, as it is under double entry system. Consequently, accurate profit or loss is not possible to ascertain.
Q2 :What are the possible reasons for keeping incomplete records?
Answer :
The possible reasons for keeping incomplete records are:
1. Simple method: Proprietors, who do not have the proper knowledge of accounting principles, find it much convenient and easier to maintain their business records under this system.
2. Less time consuming: Maintaining books according to the single entry system is less time consuming, as only few books are to be maintained. Further, the books are not as comprehensive as they are under double entry system.
3. Less expensive: It is an economical mode of maintaining records, as there is no need to appoint specialised accountant.
4. Flexible: Owner may record transactions as per his/her own needs. It can be easily adjusted or changed whenever needed.

Q4 :What practical difficulties are encountered by a trader due to incompleteness of accounting records?
Answer :
The following are the difficulties that are encountered by a trader due to incompleteness of accounting records.
1. Accuracy of accounts: Arithmetical accuracy of accounts can not be ascertained, since proper records of accounts are not maintained. Consequently, Trial Balance cannot be prepared.
2. Encourages fraud: As the arithmetical accuracy cannot be determined; so, this encourages fraud and provides sufficient scope for bluffing and carelessness.
3. Difficult to ascertain correct profit or loss: Since all expenses and income are not recorded, true profit or loss cannot be correctly ascertained.
4. Difficult to analyse the true financial position: As profit or loss cannot be ascertained easily, so the Balance Sheet cannot be easily prepared. Hence, the absence of Balance Sheet will not reflect the true financial position of the business.
5. Difficulty in comparison: Due to the incomplete records and non-availability of previous years’ data, comparison is not possible. By the same token, comparisons with other firms are also not possible.
6. Unacceptable to tax authorities: It does not reflect the true and acceptable presentation of expenses and revenues. Hence, these are not acceptable by the tax authorities.
7. Raising funds: Since analysis of solvency, profitability and liquidity of business cannot be done, it is difficult to raise fund from outside.

Q1 :What is meant by a ‘statement of affairs’? How can the profit or loss of a trader be ascertained with the help of a statement of affairs?
Answer :
A Statement of Affairs resembles Balance Sheet; however, it is not called a Balance Sheet. The statement of affairs is a Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The main difference between a Statement of Affairs and a Balance Sheet is that while the former is prepared on the basis of physical counts and improper source documents, the latter is prepared purely on the basis of ledger accounts. Thus, the authentication and relevance of the latter is guaranteed. The excess of assets over liabilities (i.e., balancing figure) is denoted as the capital of the firm. The performa of the statement of affairs is presented below.

For ascertaining profit or loss, if capital in the beginning is not given, then opening statement of affairs is prepared in order to calculate the capital in the beginning. Once the opening capital and closing capital is calculated, a Statement of Profit or Loss is prepared to determine the amount of profit earned or loss incurred during the accounting period.

Q2 :Is it possible to prepare the profit and loss account and the balance sheet from the incomplete book of accounts kept by a trader’? Do you agree? Explain.
Answer :
The Profit and Loss Account and the Balance Sheet can be prepared from the incomplete book of accounts through Conversion Method. According to this method, incomplete records are converted into double entry records. In case of incomplete records, details of some transactions are easily available like cash sales, cash purchases, creditors, debtors; however, there are number of transactions, the details of which may not be available directly. Yet, these details can be found out indirectly or logically. Some of the important items that are vital for preparing Balance Sheet are given below.
1. Opening Capital
2. Closing Capital
3. Credit Purchases
4. Cash Purchases
5. Credit Sales
6. Cash Sales
7. Payment from Debtors
8. Payment to Creditors
9. Opening Stock
10. Closing Stock
Below given are the steps included in the conversion method in a chronological order.
1. If opening capital is not given, then the first step is to prepare opening Statement of Affairs that gives the Opening Capital.
2. The second step is to prepare Cash Book that gives the opening or the closing cash and bank balance.
3. The next step is to prepare Total Debtors Account. It is prepared in order to find out one of the missing figures, such ascredit sales, opening debtors, closing debtors and cash received from debtors.
4. The subsequent step is to prepare Total Creditors Account to ascertain one of the missing figures, such as credit sales, opening creditors, closing creditors and cash paid to the creditors.
5. The last step is to prepare final accounts. On the basis of the missing figures ascertained in each of the above steps, along with other mentioned information, Trading and Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet can be prepared.

(a) Opening capital and closing capital
(b) Credit sales and credit purchases
(c) Payments to creditors and collection from debtors

Opening balance of debtors is Rs 54,000 and the closing balance of creditors is Rs 1 ,78,500
Total Sales = Cash Sales + Credit Sales
Total Sales = Cost of Goods Sold + Gross Profit
Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Closing Stock
= 30,000 + 2,95,000 + 25,000
= Rs 3,00,000
Let sales be 100%
Sales = Cost of Goods sold + Gross Profit
Or,100 = Cost of Goods sold + 25%
Cost of Goods Sold = 100% – 25% = 75%
Gross Profit = Cost of Goods Sold ⁄% of Cost of Goods Sold × % of Gross Profit
= 3,00,000⁄75× 25
= 1,00,000
