Profit = Closing Capital + Drawing – Opening Capital - Capital Introduced
= 5, 00,000 + 3, 75,000 - 7, 50,000 – 50,000
= 75,000
(OR)
i. Capital: It is the amount invested by the proprietor in a business. If the business earns
profit or invests additional amount, the amount of capital increases in the
business. On the other hand, if the business incurs losses or withdraws the amount
invested, the amount of capital decreases.
ii. Drawings: It is the amount of cash or goods withdrawn from the business by the
proprietor for personal use.
iii. Account: It is a record of transactions (cash or credit) maintained under a particular
head which shows the transactions and the effect of such transactions in the books of
accounts.
Answer 15
According to historical cost principle, all assets are recorded in the books of accounts at the
purchase price which includes the purchase price, cost of acquisition and installation. The
purchase price will remain same for all further accounting even though there is change in
the market value. For example, a machine is purchased for ` 250,000, its acquisition cost is
` 10,000, transportation cost is ` 5000 and the installation cost is ` 12,000. Hence, the cost
of machine will be entered in the books of accounts as ` 277,000. If the market value of
machine is increased to ` 300,000, this change in the cost will not be reflected in the books
of accounts. It does not maintain the true value of machine.
