1. **Problem Statement:**
Prepare the income statement for the period ended 30.06.2020 and the statement of financial position as at 30.06.2020 for CORD Ltd using the given balances and additional information.
2. **Income Statement Preparation:**
- Start with Gross Profit: 32,603,000
- Deduct operating expenses (wages, rates, insurance adjusted, postage, light, directors fees adjusted, general expenses, bad debts, audit fee accrued)
- Calculate depreciation on motor vehicles and fittings
- Add or deduct interest expenses (debenture interest accrued)
- Calculate net profit before tax and dividends
3. **Adjustments:**
- Insurance prepaid: premium 12,000,000 for 6 months from April to September, so for 3 months (April-June) expense = $\frac{12,000,000}{6} \times 3 = 6,000,000$; prepaid insurance = 6,000,000
- Depreciation:
- Motor vehicles: $20\%$ of 11,640,000 = $2,328,000$
- Fittings and equipment: $15\%$ of 17,856,000 = $2,678,400$
- Accrued expenses:
- Electricity: 21,920,000
- Directors fees: 200,000
- Audit fee: 48,000
- Debenture interest accrued: total 640,000 (10% of 6,400,000), paid 320,000, so accrued interest = 320,000
4. **Income Statement Calculation:**
Operating expenses total:
- Wages and salaries: 11,280,000
- Rates and insurance: 564,000 - prepaid portion 6,000,000 (adjusted to expense 564,000 - 6,000,000 = negative, so only 564,000 expense counted)
- Postage and telephone: 248,000
- Light and fuel: 486,000 + accrued electricity 21,920,000 = 22,406,000
- Directors fees: 1,000,000 + accrued 200,000 = 1,200,000
- General expenses: 1,243,000
- Bad debts: 136,000
- Audit fee accrued: 48,000
- Depreciation: 2,328,000 + 2,678,400 = 5,006,400
Total operating expenses = sum above
5. **Net Profit before interest and tax:**
$32,603,000 - \text{Total operating expenses}$
6. **Interest expense:**
Debenture interest: 640,000 (10% of 6,400,000)
7. **Net Profit after interest:**
$\text{Net profit before interest} - 640,000$
8. **Dividends:**
- Preference dividend: 8% of 16,000,000 = 1,280,000
- Ordinary dividend: 10% of 48,000,000 = 4,800,000
