company's ROCE, Operating Profits Margin, Gross Profit Margin are decreased from 2017 to
20185 which shows the poor performance of the company. Also, account receivables has been
increased which shows that debtors are converted into cash takes more time and also company is
taking more time to pay to its creditors which results to increase in high finance cost because in
year 2017 there were no finance cost but in year 2018 finance cost raised to $8 which decreased the
profits and also inventory turnover period has been increased which means that inventory
conversion into sales is taking more time as compared to year 2017. So, the company should put its
main focus on account receivables, account payables and inventory turnover period so as to
increase the profits and to reduce its cost.
QUESTION 2: ACCOUNTANCY THEORY – BUDGETING
a.
Budget is prepared in order to control all the expenses and costs for the present and to prepare
for future so as to help managers to take decisions to control the cost and earn higher
profits(Bogsnes 2016.).
Advantages of Budget Preparation are-
It increases the profitability of the company which helps the company to achieve its goals
and targets.
It compels forward-looking process within the organisation.
It anticipates all the problems in the organisation and provides remedial actions.
Disadvantages of Budget Preparation are-
Many times it does not take into account various expenses such as inflation rates, interest
rates etc.
It is time consuming process because it takes a longer time to prepare one budget and than
to take decision based on those budgets(Roncalli 2016).
Q2(b)
Budget can be used for the company employees to work in a coordination which will help
Document Page
them to complete work more quickly as compare to those who are working individually and also
this will save their time and cost will also be reduced whereas budget can also be used to motivate
the employees to work so that they can achieve their personal goals by achieving the company
goals but they would be working individually so how they will work in coordination because their
will be competition between the employees itself to compete with another employee of the
organisation(Wildavsky 2017.).
SECTION C
Accounting concepts and conventions
Most important and relevant concepts/conventions are-
Prudence-
Prudence means that the company should not overestimate its profits, gains, revenues, and
assets and should not underestimate its costs, expenses, losses and liabilities. Company should use
conservative approach while accounting its profits, gains, expenses, costs etc. as and when they are
actually realised. One of the example of Prudence is “Provision for Bad and Doubtful Debts”.
Accruals-
Accruals refers to the adjustments made before the financial statements are issued. These
includes expenses, losses, and liabilities have been incurred but not yet recorded while profits,
gains and assets have been earned but are not recorded in the accounts. Example of the Accruals is
Rent for 12 months is $24,000 but rent of December is not paid i.e. $2,000 so it will be recorded in
the accounts even they are not paid but are incurred.
Consistency-
Consistency means company is using consistently same accounting methods, accounting
standards, accounting principles from one year to another year and can be changed only in three
conditions i.e. any change in law, change will bring better disclosures of financial statements and
statutory requirement. Example of consistency is using same Depreciation method i.e. Written
Down Value method.
Going concern-
Document Page
In this Principle, company assumes that entity will remain in business for the foreseeable
future and will never be going to liquidate (Basic accounting concepts, 2019). Example of Going
Concern is the computation of Depreciation on the basis of expected economic life rather than
current market value.
Dual Aspect Concept-
It states that every business requires to record its transaction in two different accounts. This
concept is basis of double entry accounting. The concept is derived from the accounting equation,
which states that: Assets=Liabilities Equity. Example of Dual Aspect Concept is company
purchases goods in cash than there will be two entries recorded i.e. Purchases A/C will be debited
and Cash A/C will be credited.
CONCLUSION
Boxa ltd. Should more focus on its account receivables, account payables and inventory
turnover period ratios to increase the profitability of the company and convert its inventory into
sales. However, Company is following all Accounting Standards, Accounting Principles and
Accounting Concepts & Conventions on yearly basis.
