Dishonour of Bill
When the drawee or acceptor of the bill fails to make the payment on the date of maturity, a bill is said to have been
dishonoured. In case a bill is dishonoured, it is advisable that the holder of the bill present the bill to a notary public
and get the dishonour of the bill noted. Noting authenticates the fact of dishonour and serves as a legal proof in the
court of law. For providing this service, a fees is charged by notary public which is called noting charges.
The journal entries related to dishonour of a bill and noting charges are given below
Note n
When the bill is dishonoured, in all the circumstances drawee or acceptor account is debited when entries are
passed in the books of drawer and drawer’s account is always credited and bills payable account is always
debited, when entries are passed in the books of drawee.
n
It may be noticed that whosoever pays the noting charges, ultimately these have to be borne by the drawee.
This is because he is responsible for the dishonour of the bill and hence, he has to bear these expenses. For
recording the noting charges in his books, the drawee opens noting charges account. He debits the noting
charges account and credits the drawer’s account.

(ii) Drawee He is the debtor who purchases the goods on credit and accepts bill. He is liable to pay the amount
mentioned in the bill.
(iii) Payee The person to whom the payment is to be made is called payee. The drawee himself or any other person
may be the payee of the bill.
2. State any four essential features of bills of exchange. (NCERT)
Ans. The essential features of bills of exchange are (any four)
(i) It must be in writing.
(ii) It is an order to make payment.
(iii) The order to make payment is unconditional.
(iv) The maker of the bills of exchange must sign it.
(v) The payment to be made must be certain.
(vi) The date on which payment is to be made must also be certain.
(vii) It must be payable to a certain person.
(viii) It must be stamped as per the requirement of law.
3. Bills of exchange must contain ‘an unconditional promise to pay’. Do you agree with the statement? (NCERT)
Ans. No, I do not agree with this statement. According to Section 5 of the Negotiable Instrument Act, 1881, “Bills of
exchange is an instrument in writing containing an unconditional order, signed by the maker directing a certain person
to pay a certain sum of money only to or to the order of a certain person or to the bearer of the instrument”. Therefore,
bills of exchange is an order by the drawer (creditor) to the drawee (debtor) without any condition. Hence, the bills of
exchange does not contain an unconditional promise to pay rather it contains an unconditional order to pay.

Long Answer (LA) Type Questions
1 Explain briefly the procedure of calculating the date of maturity of bills of exchange. Give example. (NCERT)
Ans. In arriving at the maturity date (i.e. the date on which bills of exchange or promissory note becomes due for payment)
3 days, known as days of grace must be added to the date on which the period of credit expires. However, when the
date of maturity is a public holiday, the maturity date will be the preceding business day. Also when an emergency
holiday is declared under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881, which happens to be the date of maturity of bills of
exchange, then the date of maturity will be the next working day immediately after the holiday.
For example,
Date of the Bill Period
(i) 1st January, 2021 2 months
(ii) 23rd November, 2021 2 months
(iii) 23rd May, 2021 60 days
Emergency Holiday - 25th July, 2021
(i) The due date will be — 1st March, 2021 + 3 days of grace = 4th March, 2021
(ii) The due date will be — 23rd January + 3 days of grace = 26th January.
Since, due date is falling on 26th January, 2021 which is a public holiday, the due date will be the preceding day,
i.e. 25th January, 2021.
(iii) The due date will be — 8 days of May + 30 days of June + 22 days of July + 3 days of grace = 25th July
Since, due date is falling on 25th July which is declared as an emergency holiday, the due date will be 26th
July, 2021.

recorded in the books of accounts. These can be of two types
(i) Error of Complete Omission When a transaction is completely omitted from being recorded in the books of

errors detected by the accountant? If not, then what happens to the balance still remaining in suspense

Example 2. Calculate net sales and gross profit from the following information. Cost of goods sold ` 2,00,000
gross profit 20% on sales.
Ans. If sales is ` 100, gross profit will be ` 20 and cost =100 − 20 = ` 80
Hence, if cost of goods sold is ` 80, sales will be ` 100
100
If cost of goods sold is ` 2,00,000, sales will be × 2 ,00 ,000 = ` 2,50,000
80
Gross Profit = Sales – Cost of Goods Sold = 2,50,000 – 2,00,000 = ` 50,000
Example 3. Calculate gross profit when total purchases during the year are ` 8,00,000; return outwards
` 20,000; direct expenses ` 60,000 and 2/3rd of the goods are sold for ` 6,10,000.
Ans. Cost of Goods Sold = Total Purchases − Return Outwards + Direct Expenses
= 8,00,000 − 20,000 + 60,000 = ` 8,40,000
2/3rd goods sold for ` 6,10,000
Cost of 2/3rd goods = 8,40,000 × 2/3 = ` 5,60,000, Gross profit = 6,10,000 – 5,60,000 = ` 50,000

Example 5. Ascertain cost of goods sold and gross profit from the following.
Particulars Amt (`)
Opening Stock 64,000
Purchases 5,60,000
Direct Expenses 40,000
Indirect Expenses 90,000
Closing Stock 1,00,000
Sales 8,00,000
Sales Return 16,000
Ans. Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses − Closing Stock
= 64 ,000 + 5 ,60 ,000 + 40 ,000 − 1 ,00 ,000
Cost of Goods Sold = ` 5,64,000
Gross Profit = Net Sales − Cost of Goods Sold
= (Sales − Sales Return) − (Cost of Goods Sold)
= ( 8 ,00 ,000 − 16 ,000 ) − ( 5 ,64 ,000 ) = 7 ,84 ,000 − 5 ,64 ,000
Gross Profit = ` 2,20,000

30
39 ,00 ,000 = x + ×x
100
39 ,00 ,000 = x + 0. 3 x
⇒ x = ` 30 ,00 ,000
Thus, CoGS is ` 30 ,00 ,000
CoGS = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses − Closing Stock
30 ,00 ,000 = 9 ,60 ,000 + 27 ,20 ,000 − Closing stock
⇒ Closing Stock = ` 6 ,80 ,000

Besides this, there are some incomes or expenses, which relate to the next year, but have been received or paid in the
current year. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate these adjustments while preparing final accounts.

Long Answer (LA) Type Questions
1. ‘‘A computer system possesses some characteristics, which in comparison to human beings, turn out to be
its capabilities.’’ In the light of this statement, discuss the characteristics/capabilities of a computer
system.
Ans. The above said statement is correct. The characteristics/capabilities of a computer system are as follows (any four)
(i) Speed The amount of time, a computer takes to accomplish a task or an operation refers to its speed.
In comparison to human beings, computers require far less time to perform a task. Generally, human beings take
into account a second or minute as unit of time. But computers have such a fast operating capability that the
relevant unit of time is fraction of a second.
Modern computers are capable of performing a 100 million calculations per second and that is why the industry
has developed Million Instructions Per Second (MIPS) as the criterion to classify different computers according to
speed.
(ii) Accuracy The degree of exactness with which computations are made and operations are performed is referred
to as its accuracy. Most of the errors in Computer Based Information System (CBIS) occurs because of bad
programming, erroneous data and deviation from procedures, which are caused by human beings. Errors
attributable to hardware are normally detected and corrected by the computer system itself.
(iii) Reliability It refers to the ability with which the computers remain functional to serve the user. Computer
systems are more reliable than human beings as they are well-adapted to perform repetitive operations and are
immune to tiredness, boredom or fatigue. However, there can be failures of computer system due to various
internal and external reasons.
(iv) Versatility The ability of computers to perform a variety of tasks is referred to as versatility. Task can be simple
as well as complex. Computers are usually versatile unless designed for a specific application. A general purpose
computer is capable of being used in any area of applications such as business, industry, scientific, statistical,
technological, communications and so on and when installed in an organisation, can take over the jobs of several
specialists because of its versatility.
(v) Storage and Retrieval It refers to the amount of data, which a computer system can store and access.
The computer systems, besides having instant access to data, have huge capacity to store such data in a very
small physical space, e.g. CD-ROM. A typical mainframe computer system is capable of storing and providing
one billion of characters and thousands of graphic images.

14. The following factors are usually taken into consideration before sourcing an accounting software
(i) Flexibility The choice of accounting software depends on the degree of flexibility it offers, in respect of data entry
and the availability and design of various reports expected from it. The user should be able to run the software on
variety of computer environments and machines.
(ii) Cost of Installation and Maintenance The cost of installation and maintenance are important considerations in
the choice of software. Sometimes, certain software which are cheap involve heavy maintenance and alteration
costs, e.g., cost of addition of modules, training of staff, etc. Conversely, the accounting software which are
expensive may require least maintenance and free upgrading and negligible alteration costs.
(iii) Size of Organisation The choice of software also depends on the size of organisation and volume of business. The
single user operated software may be useful for small organisations having less number of transactions. Whereas
sophisticated software may be best suited for large organisations, to meet the multi-user requirements.
(iv) Ease of Adaptation and Training Needs The software must be capable of attracting users and be able to motivate
its potential users. Some accounting softwares are user friendly and require simple training. However, some other
complex softwares packages require intensive training on a continuous basis.
(v) Utilities/MIS Reports The choice of software also depends on the MIS report and the degree to which they are
used in the organisation.
(vi) Expected Level of Secrecy The choice of accounting software also depends on the level of security features
offered by it. Software should be able to prevent unauthorised access and manipulation of data.
(vii) Exporting/Importing Data Facility The accounting software should allow easy data transfer to other systems or
software for flexible reporting such as organisations may transfer information directly from the ledger into
spreadsheet software such as lotus or excel.
(viii) Vendors Reputation and Capability Another important consideration in the choice of accounting software is the
capability and reputation of the vendor. This depends upon how long the vendor has been in the business of
software development, whether there are other users of the software and extent of support available from people
other than the vendor.
