QUESTION 3
Joline has always been very good at baking beautiful cakes. She has recently decided
to take her hobby to the next level and started a new company that she named Joline's
Cakes (Pty) Ltd ("Joline's Cakes"). Joline's Cakes specialises in baking and selling
cakes. The company has a December year-end.
Joline is new to accounting and has therefore asked you, as an accountant, to assist
her.
The following transactions occurred during the year ending 31 December 2024
and have not been recorded yet:
To start the company, Joline's Cakes, Joline deposited R100000 into the bank
account of Joline's Cakes on 1 January 2024.
On 1 February 2024, Joline's Cakes bought an industrial cake mixer from
Wholesaler Galore Ltd that she will use to make the cakes. The original price of
the cake mixer was R25000. Wholesaler Galore Ltd gave a 10% discount on the
original price of the cake mixer because Joline's Cakes paid in cash. The cake
mixer was ready for use on 1 February 2024 and has a useful life of 3 years with
no residual value.
During the year, Joline's Cakes had the following cash sales:
On 31 December 2024, Joline's Cakes got a last-minute order to supply a New
Year's cake. Joline sold the cake for R350 on 31 December 2024; however, the
client only paid the amount on 2 January 2025. This sale has not been included as
part of the sales indicated in point 3 above.Joline's Cakes bought R25500 worth of ingredients during the year. All of these
were bought from CakeFlour (Pty) Ltd. At year end R2500 worth of flour was still
on hand.
On 1 September 2024, Joline decided to run the business from a shop in the local
town. She signed a yearly rental contract on that day. An amount of R500000 was
paid upfront in cash for the period 1 September 2024-31 August 2025.
Joline's Cakes grew fast, so they decided to get a R540000 loan from ABC Bank
Ltd on 31 July 2024 to fund the growth. The loan is repayable in 6 yearly payments
starting on 31 July 2025. The loan bears interest at 6% per annum.
