Additional information:
1. Before the information below was taken into account, the bookkeeper calculated the profit
before tax for the year ended 28 February 2017 as R84 510.
1.1 The bookkeeper neglected to record the depreciation for the current financial year:
Depreciation on equipment is accounted for at 25% per annum according to the diminishing
balance method. On 1 February 2017 a printer was purchased on credit for R9 600; this
transaction is still to be recorded in the books of the business.
On furniture and fittings, depreciation to the amount of R9 000 must be recorded.
1.2 On 28 February 2007 a debtor owing the business R400 was declared insolvent but his
account was not written off. On the same date another debtor, whose account had been
written off as irrecoverable during the 2016 financial year, made a cash payment of R850 to
the CC in order to settle the amount that was previously written off. The cashier forgot the
R850 in a drawer and did not record this transaction.
1.3 The actual normal income tax for the current financial year was calculated as R24 500 and
must still be recorded.
