FOUNDATION COURSE 
PAPER – 1: PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF ACCOUNTING  
SUGGESTED ANSWERS/HINTS 
1. (a) (i) True: Conservatism states that the accountant / entity should not anticipate any future 
income. However, they should provide for all possible / probable losses. Imprudent use of 
concept of conservatism may lead to understatement of Income and Assets. 
(ii) True: Since the temporary huts were necessary for the construction, their cost should be 
added to the cost of the cinema hall and thus capitalised. 
(iii)  False: Account current statement is running transaction between two parties to ascertain the 
amount payable along with interest. A Current Account is an account type to be maintained 
with the bank. In both the cases interest is calculated, with the help of different methods. 
(iv) True: In case the due date of a bill falls after the date of closing the account, then no interest 
is allowed for that. However, interest from the date of closing to such due date is written in 
“Red-Ink” in the appropriate side of the ‘Account current’. This interest is called Red -Ink 
interest. 
(v) False: On the death of a partner, the firm receives full value of the sum assured of the joint 
life policy. 
(vi) False: Even if the company incurs losses, it has to pay interest on debentures. Debentures 
being debts on the company & debenture holders are not concerned with the profit or loss of 
the company, the interest is to be paid at the rate fixed on it at the time of issue of debenture. 
(b) Accounting Standards are selected set of accounting policies or broad guidelines regarding the 
principles and methods to be chosen out of several alternatives. The Accounting Standards Board 
of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) formulates Accounting Standards to be 
established by the Council of the ICAI.  The main objective of Accounting Standards is to establish 
standards which have to be complied with, to ensure that financial statements are prepared in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accounting Standards seek to suggest 
rules and criteria of accounting measurements. These standards harmonize the diverse accounting 
policies and practices at present in use in India.

was an upward movement earlier), hence this will result in additional credit of ` 5,00,000/- to

MOCK TEST PAPER 1 
FOUNDATION COURSE 
PAPER – 1: PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF ACCOUNTING  
SUGGESTED ANSWERS/HINTS 
1. (a) (i) True: Conservatism states that the accountant / entity should not anticipate any future 
income. However, they should provide for all possible / probable losses. Imprudent use of 
concept of conservatism may lead to understatement of Income and Assets. 
(ii) True: Since the temporary huts were necessary for the construction, their cost should be 
added to the cost of the cinema hall and thus capitalised. 
(iii)  False: Account current statement is running transaction between two parties to ascertain the 
amount payable along with interest. A Current Account is an account type to be maintained 
with the bank. In both the cases interest is calculated, with the help of different methods. 
(iv) True: In case the due date of a bill falls after the date of closing the account, then no interest 
is allowed for that. However, interest from the date of closing to such due date is written in 
“Red-Ink” in the appropriate side of the ‘Account current’. This interest is called Red -Ink 
interest. 
(v) False: On the death of a partner, the firm receives full value of the sum assured of the joint 
life policy. 
(vi) False: Even if the company incurs losses, it has to pay interest on debentures. Debentures 
being debts on the company & debenture holders are not concerned with the profit or loss of 
the company, the interest is to be paid at the rate fixed on it at the time of issue of debenture. 
(b) Accounting Standards are selected set of accounting policies or broad guidelines regarding the 
principles and methods to be chosen out of several alternatives. The Accounting Standards Board 
of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) formulates Accounting Standards to be 
established by the Council of the ICAI.  The main objective of Accounting Standards is to establish 
standards which have to be complied with, to ensure that financial statements are prepared in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accounting Standards seek to suggest 
rules and criteria of accounting measurements. These standards harmonize the diverse accounting 
policies and practices at present in use in India.

Jan. 31  Purchases Returns Account (Cr.)  47,500 
2. (a) (a)  Fair Value : ` 1,05,00,000/- 
 Since this is an upward revaluation and group had a balance in revaluation surplus (i.e. there 
was an upward movement earlier), hence this will result in additional credit of ` 5,00,000/- to 
Revaluation Surplus and hence total Revaluation Surplus Balance (part of other 
comprehensive income in Equity) shall increase to ` 15,00,000/-

              To Revaluation Surplus A/c   5,00,000 
(b)  Fair Value : ` 85,00,000/- 
 Since this is a downward revaluation and group had a balance in revaluation surplus (i.e, 
there was an upward movement earlier), hence this will result in a reduction or a debt to 
Revaluation Surplus to the extent of balance therein and any excess shall be debited to Profit 
& Loss A/c. In this case, there is a reduction in fair value of ` 15,00,000 (` 1,00,00,000 – ` 
85.00.000). Hence, the Revaluation Surplus A/c shall be debited by ` 10,00,000 and the 
balance `5,00,000 shall be debited to Profit & Loss A/c. Hence total Revaluation surplus 
balance (part of other comprehensive income in Equity) shall become NIL.
